The Milwaukee Brewers out-hit the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night but that wouldn’t make a difference in the final score as the Brewers couldn’t turn their hits into runs in the 2-0 loss. The Brewers had seven hits and the Reds had six. The Reds scored a run in the top of the fourth and seventh innings. Eric Lauer was given the loss on the mound, as he went six innings and gave up four hits and an earned run. Lauer also had three strikeouts. 

After the loss, Milwaukee is 53-37 this season and plays the Reds for game three of four in the final series before the All-Star break at 6:15 PM on Saturday.
