Former All-Star pitcher Bronson Arroyo of the Reds has one of the worst starts of his career as the Brewers rock him for five runs in the 1st inning, highlighted by a three-run homer by J.J. Hardy, and a grand slam off the bat of Ryan Braun which sends him to the showers before he can retire a batter in the 2nd. The Brew Crew adds five runs off infielder Paul Janish in the 9th for a final score of 15 – 3. Manny Parra picks up his first win of the year after four losses.
