After Braun plunked, Schoop’s slam lifts Brewers over Giants

Jonathan Schoop responded to a tense situation in the biggest way possible. Schoop hit a grand slam after Ryan Braun was hit by a pitch in the sixth inning, and Milwaukee beat the San Francisco Giants 6-3 on Sunday, completing a series sweep and preserving the Brewers' lead in the NL wild-card race. Milwaukee moved within two games of the first-place Cubs in the NL Central heading into a three-game series at Chicago.
