ST. LOUIS (AP) — William Contreras homered and Tyrone Taylor scored twice and drove in a run as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-3. Milwaukee stopped a two-game skid and reduced its magic number to clinch the NL Central to six. Richie Palacios homered for the last-place Cardinals, who were eliminated from playoff contention. Contreras’ solo homer in the third snapped a 16-inning scoring drought for Milwaukee. The Brewers opened the fourth with four straight doubles. Willy Adames, Josh Donaldson, Taylor and Sal Frelick all doubled and scored to give Milwaukee a 5-2 lead.
