Contreras drove in a run with a sac fly in the fifth, and he drove in another with an infield single in the ninth. It’s nice to see some production from Contreras over the past couple games, as he’s hitting a disappointing — but not yet panic-inducing — .174/.304/.326.

Priester allowed eight hits, walked three and struck out just two in his first bad start since joining the Brewers. He still has a solid 3.79 ERA after this one, but his 13/12 K/BB in 19 innings is discouraging. He should stay in the rotation and face the Cubs next time out, but if he struggles again, he could get bumped when Brandon Woodruff is activated.

Megill got just one out before surrendering the walkoff on a fastball. It’s the first homer he’s allowed this year. Although still very much the Brewers’ primary closer, Megill has just three save chances and two conversions to date. He’s allowed four runs in 7 1/3 innings over 10 appearances.

The homer was a two-run blast off Ryan Helsley to tie the game in the ninth before the Cardinals won it in the bottom of the inning. Chourio came into the day in an 8-for-46 slump that had dropped his OPS from .966 to .760. He’s been lacking in the plate discipline department this year, leaving him with a 29/2 K/BB in 132 plate appearances. Still, talent seems sure to win out here.

Playing his second game of the season after missing time with a hamate bone fracture, Alvarez delivered a two-run blast off Brad Lord in the second inning to drive in the only two runs of the game. The 23-year-old backstop’s return provides a spark for a team that’s already off to a great start at 19-8. His power potential warrants interest in most one-catcher formats at least 12 teams and deeper.

Herrera caught a bullpen session on Saturday and is aiming to begin a minor league rehab assignment by the end of next week. The 24-year-old backstop was originally expected to miss roughly one month after being diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee back in early April. It appears there’s a decent shot he’ll rejoin the Cardinals’ lineup at some point in early May.

Fulford returns to the majors just a few hours after being jettisoned to the minors with infielder Aaron Schunk hitting the injured list with a groin strain. The 26-year-old infielder went 1-for-8 with a solo homer in four games with the Rockies after being called up last week.
