Eight straight Milwaukee Brewers victories over the St. Louis Cardinals is the longest streak from either team in the history of them playing one another.
Currently the Brewers have won eight straight games against the Cardinals. This wins streak dates back to last September in which Milwaukee won the final two contests against St. Louis in 2023. They then swept the Red Birds at Busch Stadium in April 2024 and have won the first three games of their current four game series at American Family Field.
Rhys Hoskins delivered a go-ahead three run home run against the St. Louis Cardinals.
On Saturday, May 11 the Brewers trailed the Cardinals by a score of 3-2 entering the seventh inning. Rhys Hoskins changed that with one swing of the bat as a go-ahead three run homer ended up being the difference in a 5-3 ball game. Hoskins long ball came with two outs in the inning and on a full count.

What has led to the Brewers recent success against the Cardinals?
As mentioned Milwaukee currently has won eight straight games against St. Louis, they are 6-0 against them this year, and have won 11 out of their last 12 match ups. Rhys Hoskins was asked about the Brewers success against the Cardinals this year and he alluded to the brand of baseball that his team plays with.
“We are playing good baseball right now. We were the last time we were playing them in St. Louis. A little bit different, but I think it’s just the brand of baseball that we are playing. We never feel like we are out of a game.”
