1st inning outburst is enough for Peralta in Brewers win

The Milwaukee Brewers erupted for five runs in the first inning last night and they held on for a 6-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers at Miller Park.

Entering Wednesday’s game, the Brewers had scored just five first-inning runs in their previous 27 games.  Last night, they scored five runs in the first and it was like Christmas in the month of May for Wily Peralta.

Peralta entered the game with an 0-4 record in his first five starts.  But he’s pitched better than an 0-4 record.  He got little run support.  But last night was different.

Scooter Gennett and Adam Lind clubbed two run homers in the first and Martin Maldonado added a run scoring single to make it 5-0.

Peralta went to work from there.  He allowed three runs (2 earned) on seven hits while striking out six in eight innings to earn his first win of the season. [Read more…]

Apparently there was some truth to Milwaukee Brewers manager Ron Roenicke’s holding out slugger Ryan Braun for two games to fix bad tendencies in his swing.

Since returning to the lineup, the former MVP has smashed three home runs, including two in Wednesday’s 8-3 win at Cincinnati.

Braun broke open a 3-2 game with a grand slam, the fourth of his career and his fourth homer of the season, as part of a five-run eighth inning.

He, along with Adam Lind (4) and Khris Davis (1) each hit solo home runs off rookie Michael Lorenzen (0-1), who was making his MLB debut.

Cincinnati (10-11) continued the home run derby, connecting on three solo shots in the loss. Matt Garza (2-3) allowed two, but struck out four and scattered six hits pitching into the seventh. [Read more…]

The Milwaukee Brewers gave regulars Ryan Braun, Aramis Ramirez and catcher Martin Maldonado the day off on Sunday, but the reserves came to the rescue, knocking off Lance Lynn and the St. Louis Cardinals 6-3 at Miller Park.

Lynn entered Sunday’s game with a 6-2 career mark and 2.23 ERA against the Brewers.  But the Brewers broke through against Lynn in the third.  Logan Schafer singled and scored on Gerardo Parra’s triple.  Adam Lind followed with a two-run homer to right-center and the Brewers led 3-0. [Read more…]

Losing streak ends at eight for Brewers with 4-2 win vs. Reds

Wondering how and when a rough, eight-game losing stretch would end, the Milwaukee Brewers finally put a whole game together to defeat the Cincinnati Reds, 4-2, ending the skid and avoiding a four-game sweep.

Kyle Lohse (1-3) lasted seven innings while striking out four to pick up his first win in four starts this season. He allowed two runs on three hits.

Lohse did falter in the fifth inning trying to protect a 1-0 lead. The righthander served up a two-run homer to Marlon Byrd, handing the Reds a one run advantage.

It didn’t last long, though, as Aramis Ramirez answered with his first home run of the year, a solo blast to even the game at two. Then in the seventh, Milwaukee (3-13) took advantage of a leadoff walk to Logan Schafer as Jean Segura connected on a two-out RBI single to center to give the Brewers the lead for good. [Read more…]

The Milwaukee Brewers offense finally showed some signs of life, scoring twice in the 9th inning to force extra innings with the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night.  But Rockies pinch-hitter Wilin Rosario clubbed a home run in the 10th off of Brewers closer Francisco Rodriguez, giving Colorado a season opening 3-game sweep over the Brewers.

It’s the first season-opening sweep suffered by the Brewers since 2011.  It’s the first time ever that the Brewers were swept in their first series at home.

Rosario fell behind Rodriguez 0-2, then worked the count full before going deep.

Corey Dickerson and Carlos Gonzalez also clubbed homers for the Rockies.  Dickerson’s shot tied the game 2-2 in the seventh off of starter Wily Peralta.  Gonzalez’ blast was a two-run shot in the 8th off of Jonathan Broxton. [Read more…]
