A banner weekend for a couple of Brewers.
First Blake Perkins hit a grand slam for his first career major league home run in a 10-8 Brewers win on Saturday. On Sunday, Andruw Monasterio hit a three-run shot in the first inning to give the Brewers a 3-0 advantage en route to a 5-1 victory.
The day wouldn’t be all positive for Monasterio as he had to leave the game for what the team called “precautionary reasons,” after taking a shot to the face while attempting to make a tag on a pickoff throw in the third inning.
