Hader (6-1) gave up a hit but struck out the side in the eighth inning Wednesday and picked up the victory over the Cubs.
The Brewers never trailed in Wednesday's game, but starter Chase Anderson only went four innings, and the official scorer -- as is his discretion -- decided to award the victory to Hader rather than Corey Knebel, who finished the fifth inning and also picked the sixth frame. Hader has 17 strikeouts in just 7.2 innings this month.
