MILWAUKEE -- Adrian Houser took the mound Saturday at American Family Field and caught the edge of the zone with a sinker for a called strike one against Tommy Edman. It was the start of things to come.
Houser filled up the strike zone in a 4-0 win over the Cardinals, dealing a three-hit shutout for the Brewers’ first nine-inning complete game since Jimmy Nelson went the distance against the Reds on Father’s Day in 2017, and their first shutout since Kyle Lohse blanked the Reds in September 2014.
It was a dramatic step forward for Houser, the 28-year-old Oklahoman who’d hit one batter and walked another with the bases loaded in his previous start, a 6-4 Brewers loss at Minnesota, in which Houser was charged with five earned runs in five innings and threw 59 percent of his pitches for strikes. One week later, he threw 76 of his 100 pitches for strikes and threw first-pitch strikes to 25 of the 29 batters he faced.
