The Milwaukee Brewers had to overcome a fine effort from Chicago pitcher Ben Mena to win, 4-3, at Wrigley Field. Mena went 6.2 innings and allowed 4 runs. Sam Van Wieren got the win, improving to 2-9. He worked 5.2 innings, giving up 3 runs on 5 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 4. Milwaukee, with the win, sits at 55-105.

Josh Belcher, who finished 3rd in the AL in RBI with 108 in 2037, contributed to the Milwaukee win with a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"It was a team effort and I thought the guys had a good plan and approach," said Belcher after the game.
