Brewers pitcher Freddy Peralta was asked about his 11-4 record. Here’s what he had to say<\/p>\n

Milwaukee Brewers ace Freddy Peralta was asked about his 11-4 record at the All-Star break and the team’s turnaround since April<\/p>\n

LOS ANGELES \u2014 In the city of stars, it was a cast of understudies and players in minor roles that led the Milwaukee Brewers<\/a> to a feat no other team in the National League has achieved in nearly two decades.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

When the Brewers strolled into Dodger Stadium the morning of July 20, it stood that no NL club had swept its season series with the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> since 2006.<\/p>\n

The hottest team in baseball walked out having changed that.<\/p>\n

With perhaps their biggest statement yet, the Brewers overcame their first deficit of three or more runs all season to win with a 6-5 victory that resounded 2,000 miles all the way back home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BOX SCORE: <\/strong>Brewers 6, Dodgers 5<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, and Milwaukee extended its winning streak to 10 games, tied for the third-longest in franchise history, with six of those wins coming against the Dodgers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Just over two months ago, the Brewers fell to 25-28 with a frustrating loss in Pittsburgh, seemingly headed for a nondescript season. All they\u2019ve done since then is win 34 of 46, by far and away the best record in the majors in that span.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The best record in the NL? Milwaukee\u2019s now tied for it.<\/p>\n

Abner Uribe escapes<\/p>\n

Had Mookie Betts\u2019 screaming liner gone almost anywhere else, the Dodgers would have walked the Brewers off. Instead, it landed safely in Blake Perkins\u2019 glove for the final out.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles had just cut the deficit to 6-4 when Dalton Rushing reached on a catch error by first baseman Andrew Vaughn, who was unable to secure the throw after what would have been a ridiculous play by Joey Ortiz for the final out. Ortiz made a charging stop \u2014 after shifting his momentum because the ball spun off the side of the mound \u2014 on Rushing\u2019s softly-struck cue shot and made an acrobatic, off-balance throw to first. It would have been in time had Vaughn not dropped the throw.<\/p>\n

It kept the bases loaded for Betts, who laced a liner to center but right at Perkins to give Abner Uribe the save with Trevor Megill unavailable after closing out the last two wins.<\/p>\n

Another pesky rally gives Brewers first lead of the day<\/p>\n

The Brewers just don’t go away.<\/p>\n

One day after delivering the go-ahead home run, Isaac Collins punched a two-out, two-strike, two-run single that broke a 4-4 tie and capped off a three-run sixth.<\/p>\n

The rally began with Joey Ortiz’s one-out double, which was promptly followed by an Eric Haase game-tying single to left. After Jackson Chourio singled off of the pitcher, William Contreras struck out and Andrew Vaughn walked to load the bases.<\/p>\n

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts turned to his third pitcher of the inning, right-hander Will Klein, but Collins capped a scrappy at-bat with a 69 mph dunker to center to score two.<\/p>\n

On an afternoon with Christian Yelich and Brice Turang out of the lineup, it was fitting that the Brewers’ run-producing hits all came from the bottom of the order, another reminder of how they operate.<\/p>\n

Esteury Ruiz puts the Dodgers ahead in fifth<\/p>\n

The Brewers may have won the trade (and then some) but Esteury Ruiz won the at-bat.<\/p>\n

The former Brewers prospect, sent away in the William Contreras trade in December 2023, got an order of revenge on the Brewers with a go-ahead solo shot with one out in the fifth. It was the first homer of the year for Ruiz, who’s graded out as a below-replacement level player since the trade.<\/p>\n

Shohei Ohtani strikes again, but Brewers get it back<\/p>\n

The Dodgers’ bats have been unusually silent through the first five games against the Brewers, save for Shohei Ohtani.<\/p>\n

And it was the usual suspect who once again delivered the big hit. Ohtani smacked his 34th home run of the season to give the Dodgers a 3-0 lead in the third against Jos\u00e9 Quintana.<\/p>\n

Quintana’s offense would get a pair of those runs back right away \u2014 with some major help from the Dodgers defense (or lack thereof).<\/p>\n

A complete misplay by Andy Pages in center field resulted in a game-tying two-base error off Joey Ortiz’s bat, the third straight batted ball resulting in unsightly glovework from the hosts. With two outs and a runner on second, Tommy Edman made a poor throw to first after a diving stop of a Blake Perkins grounder, skipping the ball past first baseman Freddie Freeman to give the Brewers their first run. Andruw Monasterio followed with a bloop hit to left that scored Perkins from second. Esteury Ruiz might have had a chance for a play at the plate with a decent throw, but instead uncorked a weak, wild throw.<\/p>\n
