Milwaukee starter Freddy Peralta (2-0) struck
out 10 in six innings, allowing on run on two hits and two
walks. Josh Hader, the last of four Brewers relievers, got the
final two outs to record his first save of the season.
In the fourth inning, Chicago's Kris Bryant broke a scoreless
game by leading off with a solo home run to left-center field.
The Cubs maintained the 1-0 lead until in the sixth.
Chicago starter Adbert Alzolay was cruising along, having
allowed just one hit in the first five innings, before the
Brewers got going.
Omar Narvaez led off the sixth with a single. Daniel Robertson
walked, and pinch hitter Billy McKinney singled to load the
bases with no outs. McKinney ended the night 3-for-3.
Alzolay got Lorenzo Cain to ground out with the force at home
plate, but Cubs manager David Ross replaced the right-hander
with lefty Andrew Chafin. Alzolay left with a 1-0 lead, but the
bases remained loaded.
On Chafin's first pitch, Urias drove a breaking ball down the
left field line, scoring Robertson, McKinney and Cain to give
Milwaukee its first lead of the night.
After a groundout and an intentional walk, Urias scored on a
wild pitch. Jackie Bradley Jr. tripled home another run to make
it 5-1, and Bradley scored on a single by Keston Hiura.
After Narvaez was hit by a pitch, Justin Steele, making his
major league debut after being called up before the game, struck
out Robertson to end the inning.
Chicago made it interesting in the ninth, getting a two-run
double from Javier Baez off Drew Rasmussen. Hader then entered
and got Jason Heyward to ground out before David Bote struck out
to end the game.
Alzolay (0-2) wound up charged with three runs on three hits and
a walk in 5 1/3 innings. He fanned six.
