MILWAUKEE - Milwaukee catcher Jonathan Lucroy says he's not a very good bunter, but his squeeze bunt with one out in the bottom of the ninth Saturday gave the Brewers a 3-2 victory over San Francisco.
The bases were loaded when Lucroy got the suicide squeeze down, scoring Ryan Braun from third base. Carlos Gomez had an inside-the-park home run and Casey McGehee knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly to build a 2-0 lead, but the Brewers couldn't hold it. Closer John Axford got the win after pitching in the top of the ninth. Milwaukee starter Randy Wolf had a no-hitter until the fifth and hadn't allowed a run when he finally left in the eighth. Two runs scored after he was replaced.
Milwaukee has won seven of the eight games on the current homestand. The Brewers have won 14 of their last 18 and own a league-best 20-7 home park record.
