 MILWAUKEE (AP) - The Milwaukee Brewers capitalized on a big break while the Houston Astros can't seem to catch one. Johnny Estrada's grand slam highlighted a nine-run sixth inning and the Brewers rallied to beat the Houston Astros 11-5 on Tuesday night.
Tony Graffanino added a pinch-hit, two-run homer and Rickie Weeks, batting .196 with runners in scoring position, delivered a bases-loaded single in the same inning as the Brewers blew the game open.
"We're not getting it done," Astros manager Phil Garner said. "What makes matters worse is we're giving up a lot of runs. We can't keep the ball in the ballpark. We're not making good pitches. We're not keeping the game close and it's hard on us."
