The Brewers mounted a comeback effort behind three home runs and an .705 OPS, but the Giants' pitching staff held them to eight earned runs despite allowing 11 hits and issuing eight walks. San Francisco's pitching, though posting a 4.58 ERA, struck out eight batters and benefited from Milwaukee's inability to capitalize in clutch situations.
