Austin Hays’ single with the bases loaded in the 10th inning gave the Cincinnati Reds a 3-2 victory over Milwaukee, ending the Brewers’ franchise-record winning streak.

The Chicago Cubs once had a strong lead in the National League Central. However, the Milwaukee Brewers entered Sunday with a nine-game lead.

The Brewers beat the Reds, 6-5, for a franchise-record 14th-straight victory Aug. 16 with help from a 3-run homer by Andruw Monasterio in the 11th.

Milwaukee was 20-3 in 1987 before crashing back to earth with alarming quickness. May barely had begun when the team lost 12 in a row. The Brewers snuck in another losing streak of six games before the month was over — only to follow with an immediate six-game winning streak.

Another day, another Brewers win led by starter Quinn Priester, and the team has now won 14 straight games in which he starts.

The Brewers are back in the win columnn, shutting out the Cubs 9-0 Monday afternoon. A "massive" punishment is likely coming for Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles, perhaps as soon as Monday afterno.
