After the Brewers would take a 6-1 lead in the bottom of the fourth, the Red Sox would rally with three runs in the top of the fifth with an RBI doubles from both Betts, Dustin Pedroia and Andrew Benintendi.
However, the Brewers would get it right bacon the bottom of the sixth with three more runs to take a 9-4 lead.
They would add two runs in the 7th and hold on to win 11-7.
