Brewers complete 2nd series sweep of Dodgers for 10th straight win

Isaac Collins delivered a go-ahead two-run single in a three-run sixth inning and the Milwaukee Brewers finished off a perfect run against the Los Angeles Dodgers this season with a 6-5 victory on Sunday.
Milwaukee’s Jackson Chourio had a single to extend his hitting streak to 14 games, tying a career high set earlier this season. Left-hander Jose Quintana (7-3) gave up four runs on four hits while striking out five over six innings.
The Brewers’ 10th consecutive victory also completed their second three-game sweep of the Dodgers in less than two weeks. Milwaukee’s 6-0 record over Los Angeles is the first time one club swept the other in a season series.
The winning streak is the eighth that has gone double digits in Brewers franchise history and the first since an 11-game run in 2021.
The Dodgers pulled within a run in the ninth on an infield single from Dalton Rushing before Mookie Betts lined out against right-hander Abner Uribe, who recorded his second save.
Shohei Ohtani and Esteury Ruiz hit home runs for the Dodgers, who dropped to 2-10 since July 4. The Dodgers also lost their sixth consecutive home game in the stretch as they committed three errors.
Los Angeles left-hander Clayton Kershaw gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits and one walk over 4 1/3 innings with two strikeouts. All three Los Angeles errors came while Kershaw was on the mound. Lou Trivino (3-1) gave up two runs in a third of an inning.
The Dodgers jumped in front in the third inning when Andy Pages doubled and scored on a Rushing fly ball. With two outs, Mookie Betts singled and came home on Ohtani’s 34th home run for a 3-0 lead.
The Brewers responded with three runs in the fourth that included an RBI single by Andruw Monasterio that was sandwiched by two Dodgers errors that allowed two runs to come across for Milwaukee.
Ruiz made the third Dodgers error, leading to Kershaw’s departure in the fifth. Ruiz then hit a one-out home run in the bottom of the fifth for a 4-3 Dodgers lead.
Milwaukee sent seven batters to the plate to take the lead in the sixth. Eric Haase delivered an RBI single to tie the game and Isaac Collins hit a two-run single against right-hander Will Klein for a 6-4 advantage.
