Rookie Vladimir Gutierrez shut down the Brewers bats in Cincinnati’s 7-3 victory Wednesday night.
That snapped Milwaukee’s winning streak at five games.
Gutierrez allowed six hits and two runs in seven innings while Brewers starter Brett Anderson was knocked out early and the Reds were able to even the three-game series.
Daniel Vogelbach hit his fifth homer for Milwaukee and Willy Adames went four-for-four, but the home-team Reds controlled the action all night.
Third baseman Travis Shaw dislocated his shoulder in the second inning and he will miss several weeks.
Right-hander Freddy Peralta will start this afternoon’s game (June 10th)against the Reds. He carried a no-hitter into the eighth the last time he pitched.
First pitch is scheduled at 11:35 AM and will be aired on 107.9 FM WOMT and at WOMTRadio.com.
