Brewers seek series win against Astros after making a 'statement'

Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras called it one of the best at-bats of his career. Facing the Houston Astros' Justin Verlander with two on and two out and the score 1-1 in the fifth inning Saturday, Contreras fouled off seven pitches in a row, including four consecutive four-seam fastballs, before drilling a 95.4 mph fastball 428 feet for a home run to left-center field.
