MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee's Willy Adames extended his home run streak to five games to tie a team record as he hit a three-run shot in the first inning of a 9-3 win against the St. Louis Cardinals. Adames' homer came off Cardinals starter Andre Pallante for his 29th of the season and coincidentally it came on his 29th birthday. Adames tied the mark set by Jeromy Burnitz in 1997 and Eric Thames in 2017 as the only players in franchise history to accomplish the feat.
