MILWAUKEE, Sept. 19 (UPI) -- Casey McGehee singled in the go-ahead run in the eighth inning to complete a Milwaukee rally Friday and lift the Brewers to a 3-2 win over Houston.

Milwaukee won its third straight and has captured six of its last eight games.

Houston had a 2-1 lead going into the seventh inning, but the Brewers tied it in that frame on a two-out, RBI single by Felipe Lopez.

Milwaukee produced the winning run in the eighth on a double by Prince Fielder and McGehee's single.

David Weathers (4-5) got the win by working a scoreless eighth. Trevor Hoffman came on in the ninth to earn his 34th save.

Wesley Wright (3-4) gave up the double to Fielder in the eighth to take the loss.
