Thames was vying for his sixth straight game with a home run, but instead went 3-for-5 with two doubles and a single, and scored two runs. He has hit safely in each of his 12 starts, setting a franchise record to begin a season. Dickie Thon held the old mark of 11 games, set in 1993.

Milwaukee starter Jimmy Nelson scattered six hits over the first five innings, including both Schwarber's and Montero's homers.
