Willy Adames hit a three-run homer in the sixth inning, and rookie Jackson Chourio added a two-run shot in the eighth to lead the Milwaukee Brewers to an 8-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on Monday night.

Adames’ 416-foot home run, his 17th of the season and eighth three-run blast, was off reliever Jesse Chavez (1-2) and gave the Brewers a 4-2 lead. This was his third go-ahead home run this season in the sixth inning or later.

“I feel like when the game’s on the line and it’s late, it gets me locked in,” Adames said. “I love being in a spot like that. When you do good, everybody loves you. When you do bad, they don’t love you. But that’s part of the game. What I try to do every time I’m in that spot, I just try to lock in and try to help the team win some games.”

Brewers manager Pat Murphy praised Adames for his consistency throughout the season.

“The kid plays every single night and comes up big so often,” he said.

Joey Ortiz’s run-scoring triple in the seventh inning gave Milwaukee a three-run lead, and Chourio’s homer, the 12th of the season for the 20-year-old outfielder, extended the Brewers’ lead to five runs.

“I feel really comfortable and I feel really confident right now,” said Chourio. “The hope is that I keep on going with that confidence.”

Marcell Ozuna hit his 31st home run of the season off Milwaukee starter Colin Rea. It hit a window above the second deck in left field to lead off the fourth inning, scoring the game’s first run. Center fielder Garrett Mitchell took away a potential home run from Eddie Rosario to end the inning.

Orlando Arcia’s solo home run in the fifth gave Atlanta a two-run lead before Rhys Hoskins’ home run in the bottom of the fifth off Grant Holmes cut the Braves’ lead to 2-1. Atlanta has now lost seven of its last nine games.
