Davies scattered three hits with one walk in six-plus innings to lower the ERA of Brewers starters in the team's last 10 games to 1.32. Maeda needed 92 pitches for four innings and took the loss after allowing two runs on three hits and three walks, while the Dodgers right-hander did strike out seven.
Brewers closer Corey Knebel, who'd suffered blown saves in each of his two previous appearances at home including Friday's series opener against the Dodgers, navigated the ninth for his fifth save. It sealed the Brewers' second shutout victory this season.
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
First threat: Adrian Gonzalez led off the seventh with a single and Cody Bellinger beat the Brewers' shift with a bunt hit in a 3-0 count to give the Dodgers their first runner in scoring position of the game.
