(AP photo)<\/p>\n<p>LOS ANGELES &#8212; Jacob Misiorowski gave up five hits and one run in six innings, Joey Ortiz and William Contreras hit two-run homers, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-1 on Saturday night in a battle of division leaders.<\/p>\n<p>Misiorowski (12-5) struck out five and gave up one walk. The right-hander topped 102 mph on each of his first six pitches to leadoff batter Shohei Ohtani to get the two-way star to pop out. He also fanned Ohtani and Freddie Freeman to get out of a bases-loaded jam in the fifth inning.<\/p>\n<p>Justin Wrobleski (11-5) gave up four runs on four hits and one walk in six innings for the Dodgers.<\/p>\n<p>Ortiz put the Brewers ahead with a 373-foot homer to left in the second to capitalize after Contreras extended the inning with a two-out single. It was the third straight game with an RBI for Ortiz, who is 5 for 13 during a four-game hitting streak.<\/p>\n<p>Ohtani cut the Dodgers\u2019 deficit to 2-1 in the third with a two-out triple over the head of first baseman Gary S\u00e1nchez into the right field corner that drove in Alex Call.<\/p>\n<p>Contreras made it 4-1 in the fourth by jumping on a cutter for his 12th shot of the season. He had been hitless in his first 15 at-bats during the opening five games of the Southern California road trip prior to the 2 for 4 outing.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Ashby got his first save of the season by striking out Call after allowing two runners.<\/p>\n<p>S\u00e1nchez was replaced by a pinch runner after being hit by a pitch in the sixth inning.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/8-17-2b-BW-brewers-SAT-438x300.webp\"  alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Milwaukee Brewers&#8217; William Contreras hits a two-run homer as Dodgers starting pitcher Justin Wrobleski, left, and catcher Hunter Feduccia watch during the fourth inning on Saturday in Los Angeles.
