The Milwaukee Brewers' bullpen dominated the St. Louis Cardinals with six hitless innings.
The Milwaukee Brewers may have just witnessed the resurgence of Kyle Harrison.
Manager Pat Murphy didn't ask too much of him, but it seems like a possible two-headed monster combination of Dustin May and Harrison could be used in the playoffs.
That won't necessarily be necessary in the best-of-five National League Division Series, but come the best-of-seven series, it sure would be nice to have those two ready to go.
Harrison improved to 11-5 on the year as he pitched two perfect innings. In fact, the only three hits that the Brewers allowed in this game came off May.
May allowed two earned runs on three hits in his three innings of work. From there, the bullpen (Harrison included) combined for six innings of no-hit baseball.
As a team, the Brewers struck out 15 batters en route to a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Not only did they strike out 15 batters, but May issued the lone walk of the game.
Brewers pitching staff looked untouchable
May allowed a two-out home run in the third inning, marking the second consecutive inning where he allowed a run.
The Brewers may have trailed 2-0, but they would score in the bottom of the third and later add two runs in the bottom of the fifth.
JoJo Romero picked up his 23rd hold of the season while Antonio Senzatela picked up hold No. 11.
Senzatela was only asked to record one out, but he still earned a hold in the process.
Aaron Ashby pitched the final two innings of the game and, in doing so, was able to earn his fourth save of the season.
Officially, Harrison gets the win due to May only pitching the first three innings. It's the first win for Harrison since Tuesday, Aug. 18.
Top of the order drove in the runs
Leadoff hitter Jackson Chourio went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run while Brice Turang followed him in the lineup with a 1-for-3 night.
Turang's lone hit was his 21st home run of the season, a two-on, two-out blast off Quinn Matthews in the fifth inning.
Matthews took the loss, falling to 2-4 on the year in a game that was relatively meaningless to both teams.
If anything, it just proved how historic of a season this is for the Brewers as they're now 102-59, a record that would've been unthinkable in decades prior.
