Cardinals 3, Brewers 1
ST. LOUIS — Former setup man Kyle McClellan, now unbeaten as a starter, pitched into the ninth to become the NL's third five-game winner and lift the Cardinals. McClellan watched as the bullpen labored to close it out. "It's nerve-racking in those situations," he said. "I know what they're going through." Colby Rasmus had a two-run double and Tyler Greene matched his career best with three hits for the NL Central leaders, who took two of three.
