The Brewers, winners of five straight, erased a
2-0 deficit with four runs after two outs in the second, capped
by Chourio's three-run homer. Joey Ortiz singled with two outs
and Jake Bauers followed with an RBI double to right. Gary
Sanchez was hit by a pitch. Chourio, who entered the game
hitting .207, then jumped on the first pitch for his sixth
homer, and first since May 15.
Paul DeJong opened the fourth inning with his ninth homer to
pull Chicago within 4-3.
The White Sox ran themselves out of a rally in the eighth.
Dominic Fletcher and Tommy Pham opened with consecutive walks.
Pinch runner Zach Remillard was out at third trying to steal.
Nicky Lopez followed with a ground-rule double to right-center,
holding Pham at third. Corey Julks flied out, and left fielder
Christian Yelich threw out Pham at home to end the inning.
Milwaukee made it 6-3 in the eighth on Sanchez's bases-loaded,
two-run single.
Brewers starter Freddy Peralta (4-3) overcame a 43-pitch first
inning to make it through five innings. Peralta allowed three
runs on four hits, striking out seven and walking one for his
first victory in six starts since April 30. Kevin Herget
followed with two scoreless innings, and Enoli Paredes finished
for his first save.
Rookie Nick Nastrini (0-5) allowed four runs on three hits in
four innings, walking three and striking out one.
The White Sox jumped on Peralta for two runs in the lengthy
first. Lopez and Julks reached on consecutive one-out singles
and both advanced on a wild pitch. Gavin Sheets followed with an
RBI single and DeJong delivered a sacrifice fly to right.
Fletcher prevented a three-run homer in the seventh with a
leaping grab above the wall on a drive by William Contreras.
