The Cardinals fell into a tie with Cincinnati for third place in the NL Central, seven games behind the division-leading Cubs.

A collision at first base led to a spat between the Cardinals vet and a Brewers player — and a fiery postgame rant.

St. Louis (37-35) was unable to salvage a split of its four-game set with the Milwaukee Brewers (39-34), dropping the series finale 3-2 at American Family Field.

Jacob Misiorowski didn't allow a hit in his first five big-league innings, and the Brewers brought a no-hitter into the seventh for the 37th time.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Nolan Gorman hit a three-run homer, Willson Contreras added a solo shot in the ninth inning and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 8-5 on Saturday to snap a six-game losing streak.

Masyn Winn led off the game with a two-strike single to center and, after Ivan Herrera followed with a walk, he scored on Alec Burleson's seeing-eye single up the middle. The Brewers defense helped quell the rally, with Jackson Chourio throwing out Herrera at third on the play, and Quintana escaped without further damage.

The Milwaukee Brewers begin a four-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals on June 12. Here's how to watch it.
