Milwaukee, WI – Edwin Jackson threw seven strong innings and 1 victory over the Brewers.
Milwaukee put the potential tying and winning runs on base in the bottom of the ninth, but Fernando Salas got out of the situation to secure St. Louis' second consecutive win.
The contest was the opener of a three-game series between the NL Central's top two teams, but the result didn't change much. The Brewers still lead the division by 9 1/2 games.
