MILWAUKEE — – Andy Pages<\/a> hit a two-run homer<\/a> immediately after Kyle Tucker<\/a> delivered a tiebreaking two-run triple<\/a> in the fifth inning to back up Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s strong pitching as the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> defeated the Milwaukee Brewers<\/a> 5-1 on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles won two of three in Milwaukee this weekend to cap a 7-2 trip. The Brewers had gone 6-0-1 over their last seven series before losing this one.<\/p>\n

Yamamoto (4-4) allowed one run over seven innings while facing the Brewers for the first time since throwing a three-hitter in Game 2 of last season’s NL Championship Series, another 5-1 Dodgers triumph<\/a> in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n

Will Klein<\/a> worked the eighth and Tanner Scott<\/a> pitched the ninth as Los Angeles’ bullpen extended its modern-day franchise record streak of scoreless innings<\/a> to 38. According to Sportradar, the last time any major league bullpen had this long a streak was in September 2017, when Cleveland relievers threw 39 straight scoreless innings.<\/p>\n

The game was tied 1-all when Los Angeles’ Mookie Betts<\/a> led off the fifth inning with a single off Brandon Sproat<\/a>, who then walked Freddie Freeman<\/a> before leaving the game. Tucker greeted Shane Drohan<\/a> by sending a 3-2 pitch just inside the right-field line to score Betts and Freeman.<\/p>\n

Pages drove Drohan’s next pitch over the left-field wall to extend the Dodgers’ lead to 5-1. The 380-foot blast was the first homer Drohan has allowed, and it came on the rookie’s 10th career appearance.<\/p>\n

Sproat (1-3) continually pitched out of trouble until running out of gas in the fifth.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers left two men on base in three of the first four innings. They got one run in the fourth when Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez scored on a wild pitch after Sproat hit Miguel Rojas<\/a> with a pitch to load the bases.<\/p>\n

Jake Bauers<\/a> scored Milwaukee’s lone run in the second inning.<\/p>\n

Up next<\/p>\n
