Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - Geoff Jenkins' two-run home run in the 13th inning gave the Milwaukee Brewers a 4-2 win over the New York Mets, on a night Tom Glavine was denied his 300th victory.
Glavine did not get his milestone victory in his first attempt despite giving up just one run on two hits with six walks and two strikeouts in six-plus innings. The Mets were ahead 2-1 at the time of Glavine's departure, but the bullpen couldn't hold the edge and Aaron Sele (3-1) was charged with the loss.
Tony Graffanino led off the 13th inning with a double down the left field line and Jenkins followed by slamming a 1-2 fastball over the left field wall for the win.
J.J. Hardy scored twice while Prince Fielder and Bill Hall each drove in a run for the Brewers, who snapped a three-game losing streak and remain one game ahead of the Cubs for first place in the NL Central.
Dave Bush (9-8) got the win for pitching a scoreless 13th inning. Jeff Suppan started on the hill and gave up two runs on six hits in 6 1/3 innings.
David Wright went 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI while Moises Alou drove in the other run for the Mets, who have dropped four of their last six.
The Brewers got on the scoreboard in the fourth inning. Hardy worked a leadoff walk and then went to third on a Ryan Braun double. Fielder then grounded out to score Hardy for a 1-0 lead.
The Mets, though, took the lead in the sixth with a pair of runs. Jose Reyes led off with a double to center and moved to third when Luis Castillo followed with a sacrifice bunt. Wright then scored Reyes with a single and moved to third on a single from Carlos Delgado. Alou's sacrifice fly scored Wright for a 2-1 lead. Shawn Green punched a double to deep left-center and Delgado attempted to score from first base, but was nailed at the plate.
Milwaukee, however, tied the game in the eighth, but blew a chance to take the lead. Hardy led off the inning with a single to left and, after Braun flied out, Pedro Feliciano entered the game, but he hit Fielder with a pitch and Guillermo Mota then took the mound.
Hall greeted Mota with a ground-rule double over the left field fence to score Hardy. After issuing a free pass to Kevin Mench, Mota struck out Damian Miller and got Graffanino to fly out and end the frame.
