ST. LOUIS, Aug. 5 (UPI) -- A two-run homer by Albert Pujols Saturday night helped St. Louis beat Milwaukee, 4-3, to break an eight-game losing streak.
Pujols had two runs and two hits; Ronny Belliard hit an RBI single; and Scott Rolen hit an RBI double for the Cardinals (59-50), who had not won since July 26 against Colorado.
Winner Anthony Reyes (3-5) gave up three runs and five hits in five innings with three walks and six strikeouts. Jason Isringhausen recorded his 29th save.
Geoff Jenkins belted a two-run homer; Brady Clark hit an RBI single; while both David Bell and Bill Hall had a run and two hits for the Brewers (52-58), who have dropped three of their last five games.
The losing pitcher was Milwaukee starter Ben Sheets (2-4), who left after one inning because of a muscle strain.
