Brewers Swept

Gregory Polanco’s two-run homer in the eighth gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 5-4 win Sunday and a sweep of their weekend series against Milwaukee. Brewers first baseman Justin Smoak’s sixth-inning home run with a man on had given the visitors a 4-2 lead, but they couldn’t hold it. David Phelps surrendered Polanco’s go-ahead blast and took the loss. Milwaukee lost six-of- 10 games on the season’s longest road trip. Left-hander Brett Anderson starts tonight (Monday) at Miller Park in the first of a four-game home series against the Cincinnati Reds. Milwaukee will be trying to break a four-game losing streak.
