 MILWAUKEE (AP) - Lyle Overbay homered in his first two at-bats, leading the Milwaukee Brewers to a 4-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.
Despite playing hurt, Overbay had the first multihomer game of his career. He has 12 stitches on the left side of his jaw and a chipped tooth from an injury he sustained Tuesday night at St. Louis, when he made a catch in foul territory in the first inning. His hand slipped off a rolled-up tarp and his face hit a plastic partition.
Overbay hit a three-run homer in the first and a solo shot in the third off Cincinnati starter Brandon Claussen (1-2). He also doubled and walked in his fourth career four-RBI game.
