Dan Haren walked the first batter today and then
gave up a two-run homer to Jonathon Lucroy as Milwaukee posted a 7-2 win over
the Dodgers to sweep the three game set.
Milwaukee has won five of six against the
Dodgers in the past week and has served notice that they will be ready should
the two first-place teams meet in the playoffs.
Haren (10-10) lasted only three innings, giving
up six runs on five hits with three walks.
Milwaukee’s Wily Peralta held the Dodgers to five
hits over six innings to earn his 15th win of the year.
Carlos Gomez added a home run in the fourth
inning as the Brewers continued to flex their muscles against the Dodgers.
The Dodgers got on the scoreboard in the eighth inning when Andre Ethier, Scott Van Slyke and Darwin Barney each doubled to put two runs on the board.
Los Angeles has now lost four out of five and
seen its’ lead in the NL West shrink to 3.5 games.
The Dodgers will try to get healthy starting
tomorrow with six games against San Diego and New York, two teams with losing
records.
