It wasn't always pretty, and it certainly wasn't easy, but the Brewers do manage to win the 5- game series against Charlotte 3 games to 2. After having dropped the first 2, and getting the win in game 3 behind the bat of Jared Stephenson and the electric arm of Harry Lyerly, they had to survive a pair of squeakers- 4-3 and 2-1- in a rare Thursday doubleheader to earn the series victory. Steve Alonso goes to 9-4 (2.77 ERA) with the victory in game 1 and lefty Daniel Torres improves to 8-3 (2.69) with an effectively wild performance in the nightcap.
