Gary Branan knocked in 4 runs to help Milwaukee beat Kansas City, 5-2. Branan produced 1 single and 1 home run. Danny Guerra, who went 6.1 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 2 runs on 4 hits, while walking 5 and striking out 4. His record now stands at 1-2. Milwaukee is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 7th in 18 games.

With Milwaukee trailing 2-0 in the top of the second, Branan hit a fastball from Bob Crosby for a 3-run home run. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Dairymen ahead, 3-2.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Dairymen manager Brandon Dudley. "This one was nice to get."
