A two-run double in the eighth inning by Sixto Lezcano lifted the Brewers to a 7-6 victory over the Mariners. The Brewers trailed, 6-5, when Paul Molitor opened the eighth with a walk. Two outs later, Gorman Thomas singled Molitor to third and Lezcano then drove in his 99th and 100th runs of season with a two-bagger. [The Sporting News]
