For the second straight day, the Brewers had a five-run inning. This time, they didn’t have much more than that on offense, but they didn’t need more. Freddy Peralta had another good start and the Brewers bullpen held on for a 5-4 win on Saturday night.
After trading walks in the first inning, the Padres struck first in the second inning. Xander Bogaerts led off the inning with a solo home run to put the Padres ahead 1-0. From there, Freddy Peralta settled in. He didn’t allow another baserunner until a single with two outs in the fifth inning.
