Khris Davis’
three run homer in the 8^th was the cherry on top of the sundae of an
8-3 win over the Orioles on Wednesday night at Miller Park.  The homer was Davis’ 3^rd in three days and
helped make a winner out of Yovani Gallardo. 
He gave up 3 runs and struck out five in six and two-thirds to even his
mark at 3-3.  Nelson Cruz hit home runs
#18 and #19 in a losing effort for Baltimore.  Milwaukee
takes today off and then opens up a weekend series with the Cubs on Friday
