Prince Fielder collected three hits and scored the winning run in the 10th inning as the Milwaukee Brewers salvaged the finale of their three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals with a 4-3 victory Sunday night.

Entering with a 1-5 record on their seven-game road trip, the Brewers watched an early 3-0 lead disappear but found a way to win for just the second time in eight games overall.

Fielder drew a one-out walk from Jason Motte (2-2) and Ryan Braun reached on an infield single. Casey McGehee followed with a base hit before Corey Hart plated Fielder with a sacrifice fly to deep center field.

Zach Braddock (1-0) tossed a scoreless ninth for his first career victory and John Axford worked around a single in the 10th for his fourth save in as many opportunities.

For the third straight game, Rickie Weeks led off the contest with a hit. It was the first of three straight singles that loaded the bases for the Brewers, who opened the scoring when Cardinals third baseman Felipe Lopez booted Braun's grounder, allowing Weeks to score.

McGehee followed with a sacrifice fly to make it 2-0, and Weeks began the third inning with his 10th home run of the season for a three-run bulge.

But Colby Rasmus led off the bottom of the frame with his 10th blast and Albert Pujols opened the sixth with his 14th to draw St. Louis within a run. Rasmus, who left the game after six innings with a calf injury, has recorded nine RBIs in his last six contests.

Milwaukee starter Manny Parra, who notched a career-high 10 strikeouts, walked the bases loaded later in the sixth, but Dave Bush and Kameron Loe each recorded an out to avoid further damage.

St. Louis knotted the contest at 3-3 in the eighth, when Ryan Ludwick led off with a double and scored two batters later on Randy Winn's sacrifice fly.

Parra yielded two runs and four hits in 5 1/3 innings, while Cardinals starter Jaime Garcia allowed three runs - two earned - and eight hits in six frames. Garcia has not surrendered more than two earned runs in any of his 11 starts this season.
