ST. LOUIS -- Orlando Arcia is finding his balance.Domingo Santana and Arcia hit back-to-back homers as the Milwaukee Brewers continued their recent road dominance routing the St. Louis Cardinals 12-5 on Thursday night.Hernan Perez had four hits and three RBI for the Brewers, who won their season-high fifth straight on the road and have won seven of their last eight games.Youre always happy to be in a good streak, Arcia said through an interpreter. We try to keep it loose, we try to play games before the game just trying to keep everybody loose and just going out there and having fun.The Cardinals fell to 30-38 at home and dropped a half game behind the idle New York Mets for the second wild card spot.Santana and Arcia connected on consecutive pitches in the second inning. It was the seventh time Milwaukee hit back-to-back homers this season and the second time in four days as Chris Carter and Santana did it on Sunday at Pittsburgh.I just went out there looking for a pitch I could hit hard, looking for my pitch, Arcia said. I was able to get one and hit it hard and get it out.Perezs four hits matched a career high he set Tuesday against Chicago.Hes swinging the bat well, Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. He just is getting in spots and tonight we had some runners on base when he was up. Hes making a lot of hard contact, solid contact.Brewers catcher Martin Maldonado has been pleasantly surprised by Perezs production in the clean-up spot.Hes earned his playing time this year and is putting up his numbers, Maldonado said. He doesnt try to do too much. Hes older and hes learning. Hes doing a good job.Arcia, who told reporters a couple of weeks ago that his balance was off in the batters box, had three hits and raised his average to .367 over his last 15 games.Just a lot of hard work, Arcia said. Just try to keep my same approach, up the middle and the other way and its starting to click.The bottom three hitters in the Brewers lineup reached eight times and scored six runs.Maldonados two-run home run in the sixth was his first since Aug. 13.Brewers right-hander Junior Guerra (8-3) needed 74 pitches to get through five innings in his second start back from the disabled list. It was his first career win against St. Louis in three tries.Jaime Garcia (10-12) struggled for the fourth time in his last five starts, losing a career-high fourth straight decision. He gave up five earned runs in 3 2/3 innings -- his third shortest outing of the season.As he came out in the first I thought it was going to be one of those days where we were going to see some really good balls on the ground, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. It seemed like some elevated balls got him. He had a good sinker. It just ended up being a rough one.Garcia entered the game with an 11-5 career record against the Brewers.Well there are some guys who hadnt faced him very often, Counsell said. He left some balls up and thats how youve got to get him. Youve got to get him with some balls up in the strike zone and we did a good job of it.Cardinals reliever Mike Mayers retired just two of the nine batters he faced, giving up six runs. He has given up 15 runs in 3 1/3 innings and has a 40.50 ERA.Kolten Wongs two-run home run in the fourth was the Cardinal second basemans third in his last six games.

CHICAGO -- Theyre each 3-3, but the Orlando Magic and Chicago Bulls have starkly different opinions about being .500 six games into the season.The Magic are feeling better about themselves after erasing an 0-3 start with three straight wins. The Bulls are trying to figure out whats gone wrong after seeing their 3-0 start dissolve into their current record with three straight defeats.Weve got to find a way to bounce back and get back to doing the things that made us successful earlier in the season, Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg told the Bulls website Saturday, after a lethargic 111-94 loss at the Indiana Pacers. Eighteen turnovers led to 24 points, and that was a big reason we dug ourselves that hole out there. Now, its a matter of getting back to work and finding out what we have to do, and hopefully coming out and playing well on Monday.It wont be an easy task against the Magic, who just edged the Washington Wizards 88-86 on Saturday night with a strong effort from their bench. Jeff Green had 18 points in his new reserve role, Bismack Biyombo added nine points, 12 rebounds and three blocked shots, and D.J. Augustin chipped in seven points and five assists.More importantly, the Magic came up with a number of key defensive stops in the fourth quarter, holding Washington to just 16 points on 5-of-22 shooting (22.7 percent).Thats a sign of a playoff team, Magic coach Frank Vogel told the teams website after the game. I believe defense and rebounding get you into the playoffs, and thats what wins in the playoffs. We didnt have a good offensive rhythm and wwe werent shooting it well, but in the fourth quarter, its the (third straight game) that we held (the opponent) under 20 points and were able to secure the victory.dddddddddddd.Orlandos three losses were against teams that qualified for the playoffs last season, including the NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers. The Magics three wins were against non-playoff qualifiers, the Philadelphia 76ers, Sacramento Kings and Wizards.It shows that we have the ability to bounce back from where we started, Green told the Magics website. It shows growth and improvement. We have to keep building from this, grow and right the wrongsThe Bulls need to prove theyre more than just Dwyane Wade and everybody else. Thus far, theyve followed how Wade has played. Wade went 1-for-9 and finished with just four points against the Pacers, while Jimmy Butler and Bobby Portis led the way with 16 points each.Im just going to have to lead the charge when it comes to coming out with the right energy, making sure were doing everything were supposed to on both ends of the floor, Butler told CSNChicago after the game. Im definitely capable of doing that, so I cant come out lackadaisical. Ive got to make sure everybody is doing what theyre supposed to do. I think thats on us. Its not even on the coaches.The Bulls will play their fourth game without injured reserve point guard Michael Carter-Williams, whos out with a left knee bone bruise and left wrist sprain.
