Multi-HR Game for Motter in 10-3 Win
Milwaukee and Kansas City met at Kauffman Stadium in front of a lively crowd.

With center fielder Taylor Motter leading the charge, the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Kansas City Royals, 10-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Motter belted 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Adam Wainwright earned the win to go to 2-1. He allowed 2 earned runs on 6 hits, with 1 walk and 3 strikeouts.

Logan Forsythe delivered a big hit for the Brewers. The veteran second baseman belted a solo home run in the top of the third. The longball put Milwaukee on top, 3-1. Overall, Forsythe was 1-4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 times.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Forsythe said after the game.

Every game is important, even these early ones, if the Brewers hope to make a postseason run.
