Brewers 4, Cardinals 0
ST. LOUIS — Yovani Gallardo was the second straight pitcher to flirt with a no-hitter at Busch Stadium, allowing a single to start the eighth as the Brewers snapped a seven-game skid. Gallardo allowed only Daniel Descalso's solid single up the middle on a 1-and-1 count and left after eight one-hit innings a day after the Cardinals' Jaime Garcia carried a perfect game into the eighth. Milwaukee's opening-day starter entered the game with 53 hits allowed, most in the majors.
