Brice Turang's two-run single capped a four-run seventh for the Milwaukee Brewers, who rallied to beat the host St. Louis Cardinals 4-3 on Monday.
The clutch hit also extended the second baseman's hitting streak to a season-high nine games as he finished 1-for-4.
David Hamilton went 2-for-3 with a two-run double but left the game in the seventh with left hamstring tightness. Garrett Mitchell also went 2-for-3 with a run scored as the Brewers scratched out eight hits to get their sixth win in their last eight games.
Shane Drohan (4-2) survived a lengthy third inning to pitch six innings, becoming the first Brewers starter to go that far since June 26. He allowed just six hits and two walks, and only one of the three runs he allowed was earned. He also struck out a pair.
Milwaukee used a combination of weak choppers and extra-base hits in the seventh to storm back after being stymied by Dustin May and Justin Bruihl.
Garrett Mitchell led off the seventh with an infield single between the pitcher's mound and third base. Bruihl sprained his right ankle trying to make a play, and Ryan Fernandez (1-2) came on to replace the left-hander.
Sal Frelick greeted Fernandez with a ground-rule double to put both runners in scoring position. Fernandez then could not cleanly field Cooper Pratt's chopper in front of the plate, loading the bases with no outs.
Hamilton followed with his double to right, cutting the St. Louis lead to 3-2. That ended the night for Fernandez, who allowed three runs, two earned, on two hits without recording an out.
Ryne Stanek came in. He walked Christian Yelich but got Jackson Chourio to force Prattout at home. That set the stage for Turang's game-winning single to left.
Jose Fermin went 2-for-3, with a run-scoring single capping the Cardinals' two-run third. Masyn Winn went 2-for-4, with an RBI single in the sixth that made it 3-0.
May, who had pitched just 2 2/3 innings since June 16, nearly pitched five full innings before giving up two-out hits to Pratt and Hamilton in the fifth. The right-hander allowed only four hits and struck out seven.
Chad Patrick threw two perfect innings in relief. Trevor Megill gave up a single to Wynn to start the ninth but allowed nothing else to get his 14th save.
