Of coarse we all know the brew tied a record with 5 homeruns in the fourth, becoming the fifth team to do so. But did anyone see that four of those five times were vs. the Reds?
Crazy!

How many pitchers did the Reds use in the 4th Inning? Who were the other 4 teams that accomplished this feat? 5 times is pretty amazing!

Cincy used two pitchers in the fourth I believe.
In regards to the other teams, I'll get back to you on that.:atthepc

Finally found it. Here is a passage from Yahoo's game recap:
The last club to do it was the Minnesota Twins on June 9, 1966, in the seventh against the Kansas City Athletics. Three other teams have accomplished the feat: the 1939 New York Giants, 1949 Philadelphia Phillies and 1961 San Francisco Giants -- all against Cincinnati as well.

Any word if the Brewers ended up getting Hardy's home run ball? It was the last one they need to complete the collection.
