Brewers win 5-4 to snap 3-game skid and end Dodgers’ 5-game winning streak
MILWAUKEE (AP) - Devin Williams retired Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman in order in the ninth inning to preserve the Milwaukee Brewers’ 5-4 victory over Los Angeles on Wednesday that snapped the Dodgers’ five-game winning streak.
The Brewers got only four hits but capitalized on three Dodgers errors to end a three-game skid, with Williams earning his second save in as many opportunities. Milwaukee is the only major league team that hasn't lost at least four in a row at some point this season.
Los Angeles’ most critical error came in the seventh, when Betts misplayed a ball in right field to enable Joey Ortiz to score the go-ahead run on Jackson Chourio's single.
Ortiz led off the seventh by getting hit by a pitch from Brent Honeywell (0-1). After Ortiz advanced to second on Brice Turang's sacrifice bunt, Chourio singled to shallow right.
