Brewers 6, Cardinals 3

MILWAUKEE — Adam Lind hit a two-run homer, and Milwaukee won for just the second time in the past 12 games. St. Louis had won nine of 10. Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright will have an MRI today to see how long his injured Achilles and left ankle will sideline him — there is speculation he could miss the rest of the season.

History

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL

1944 — Jim Tobin of the Braves pitched a no-hitter against the Brooklyn Dodgers in Boston, winning 2-0. He also hit a homer.

1968 — Tom Phoebus of the Orioles no-hit the Boston Red Sox 6-0 at Baltimore.

1973 — Kansas City’s Steve Busby pitched his first of two career no-hitters with a 3-0 victory over the Tigers at Detroit.

1983 — Walter Johnson’s record of 3,508 career strikeouts was eclipsed by Houston’s Nolan Ryan — a record which had stood for 56 years. Ryan fanned Montreal pinch-hitter Brad Mills in the eighth inning as the Astros beat the Expos 4-2.

1994 — Scott Erickson, who allowed the most hits in the majors the previous season, pitched Minnesota’s first no-hitter in 27 years as the Twins beat Milwaukee 6-0.

1996 — Barry Bonds became the fourth major leaguer to amass 300 career homers and 300 career steals when he homered in the third inning of the San Francisco Giants’ 6-3 victory over the Florida Marlins. His father, Bobby Bonds, godfather Willie Mays and Andre Dawson are the only other players to reach 300-300.

2002 — Derek Lowe, who struggled to keep his job as a closer in 2001, pitched a no-hitter against Tampa Bay. Brent Abernathy was the only baserunner Lowe allowed in Boston’s 10-0 victory.

2003 — Kevin Millwood pitched a no-hitter to lead the Philadelphia Phillies over the San Francisco Giants 1-0. Millwood struck out 10 and walked three.

2009 — Colorado’s Dexter Fowler tied a modern-day rookie mark with five stolen bases in the Rockies’ 12-7 win over San Diego. Fowler became the first rookie to steal that many bases since Damian Jackson on June 28, 1999. That contest also involved Colorado and San Diego.
