Trailing 1st place Detroit by 11 games, the 2nd place Milwaukee Brewers are down to their last chance to catch the Tigers. Milwaukee is 4-3 vs. Detroit this season and have 6 games left in head to head action. The Brewers almost have to win all 6 games to have any hope.
Today, Detroit was in Milwaukee for the 1st game of a 3 game series. In a tense pitching duel, the teams were tied 1-1 after 9 innings. Detroit was first to score in extra innings when Larry Herndon hit a 2-run bomb in the 12th inning. But Milwaukee was fighting for their lives and weren't giving up too easily. The Brewers scratched out 2 runs in the bottom of the 12th to tie it up at 3 all. Then in the 13th inning Detroit scored a run on a John Wockenfuss pinch-hit single to take a 4-3 lead. Again, Milwaukee wasn't going down without a fight. With a man on 2nd and 2 out, the Brewers came back one more time to scratch out 2 runs, winning the ballgame 5-4.
