Quinn Priester allowed one run and four hits over six innings to help the Milwaukee Brewers capture a 3-2 win against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals in the finale of their four-game series on Sunday afternoon.

Priester (5-2) struck out three and didn’t walk a batter en route to his fourth straight win.

Christian Yelich singled, doubled and homered and Caleb Durbin collected two hits and scored a run for Milwaukee, which took three of four in the series.

St. Louis starter Miles Mikolas (4-4) allowed two runs and six hits over six innings, striking out seven and walking one.

Ivan Herrera had two hits, including a solo home run, and Brendan Donovan also had a pair of singles for St. Louis, which has lost seven of eight.

Preister did not allow a hit until Donovan led off the fourth with a single up the middle. The 24-year old right-hander thought he had Herrera struck out looking on a 2-2 pitch, but it was called a ball and Herrera grounded the next pitch through the right side on a hit-and-run to put runners on the corners with none down.

Donovan decided not to tag up on a shallow fly to center by Alec Burleson, but then scored on a slow roller to shortstop by Willson Contreras to give St. Louis a 1-0 lead.

Yelich led off the bottom half of the fourth by lifting an 0-1 fastball over the fence in left-center field to tie it 1-1.

The inning continued with singles by Rhys Hoskins and Durbin. They moved up a base on a wild pitch and Hoskins scored on a sacrifice fly to deep right by Drew Avans for a 2-1 lead.

It was the first major league RBI for Avans, who was playing in his seventh MLB game.

The Brewers put runners on second and third with one out in the seventh off left-hander John King and Durbin scored on a slow roller back to the mound by Sal Frelick to make it 3-1.

Abner Uribe pitched a scoreless seventh for Milwaukee, but Herrera took Jared Koenig deep in the eighth to cut the lead to 3-2.

Nick Mears relieved Koenig and got the final out of the eighth with the tying run on second. The Cardinals put their first two batters on base in the ninth against Trevor Megill, but he bounced back to strike out the next three batters to notch his 15th save.
