Freddy Peralta had an impressive game, striking out 11 batters in six innings, leading the Milwaukee Brewers to an 11-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles.
The Brewers hit three home runs in the game. There was some tension in the sixth inning that caused both benches and bullpens to clear, but no actual fighting occurred.
Gary Sánchez, Willy Adames, and William Contreras hit the home runs for the Brewers, who have been scoring a lot of runs lately.
The Orioles’ Jackson Holliday, considered one of the top prospects, had a tough game, striking out in all three of his plate appearances.
The Brewers’ Jackson Chourio, another highly-rated prospect, also struggled, going hitless with three strikeouts. The incident in the sixth inning involved Orioles’ catcher James McCann and Adames, but the reason for the dispute wasn’t clear.
Peralta pitched well for the Brewers, allowing just one run on five hits. Tyler Wells started for the Orioles but gave up four runs in four innings.
