Marlins cool off Brewers to open series
Kyle Stowers homered and scored twice for Miami, which has won five of seven coming out of the All-Star break.
Marlins starter Cal Quantrill allowed one run and three hits in five innings. He struck out four and didn't walk a batter.
Josh Simpson pitched a scoreless sixth for the Marlins. Anthony Bender stranded two runners in scoring position in the seventh. Ronny Henriquez retired the side in order in the eighth, and Calvin Faucher left runners on second and third in the ninth.
Brewers starter Freddy Peralta allowed one run and five hits in five-plus innings. He struck out nine and walked two.
Jackson Chourio homered for the Brewers, who had won 12 of 13. That extended Chourio's hitting streak to 18 games.
Stowers hit an opposite-field solo homer to left-center field in the third inning to give Miami a 1-0 lead.
Chourio tied it up 1-1 when he blasted a two-out solo home run over the fence in center in the fourth.
Xavier Edwards started the four-run seventh by beating out an infield single up the middle off Brewers reliever Aaron Ashby . Nick Mears came in with one out and issued back-to-back walks to load the bases.
Lopez then lined a double into the right-center field gap. Blake Perkins bobbled the ball in center, allowing a third run to come home on the play while Lopez continued to third.
Liam Hicks hit a sacrifice fly to deep right to score Lopez for a 5-1 lead.
An unusual sequence of events occurred in the first inning.
Miami designated hitter Agustin Ramirez hit a high fly to center with two outs that Perkins appeared to briefly glove after he leaped and reached over the center field fence. The ball came out of his webbing as he pulled it back, however, and bounced along the top of the fence before coming down on the warning track.
The play was initially ruled a home run, but after a crew chief review Ramirez was placed at second base because the Milwaukee defense had given up on the play after seeing it ruled a home run.
Ramirez stole third and Stowers walked, but they were stranded on the corners.

Lionel Messi Spotted At Coldplay Concert, Chris Martin Calls Him 'No 1 Sportsperson'
Suspended for Inter Miami's bout against FC Cincinnati, Lionel Messi spent time with his wife at the Coldplay concert in the North American city. Football icon Lionel Messi was spotted at Coldplay's jumbotron alongside his better half in the North American city. Fans jumped and roared in excitement at the concert as a giant screen unveiled Messi's presence, while Coldplay's lead singer, Chris Martin, welcomed the world cup winner to the concert. 'Welcome to my beautiful brother," said Martin from the stage, looking at Messi, who was smiling as he waved acknowledging the loud reception. 'You and your wife are looking so fine. Thanks for coming today to see our band play. The No.1 sportsperson of all time," Martin said. Messi went to the Coldplay concert after attending Inter Miami's goalless draw against FC Cincinnati, for which the 38-year-old had been suspended amidst a breach of an All-Stars match regulation. Speculations had been rife about Messi's absence for the friendly encounter that featured 26 MLS players, including Hirving Lozano, Jordi Alba and Diego Rossi. Even as MLS authorities were desperate for Messi's appearance because of his incredible fame that would've attracted humongous viewership, he gave the game a skip. Because Messi took no part in the MLS All-Stars fixture, he was handed a one-match ban by the Major League Soccer authorities. Messi though was present in the stands on Saturday with Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas calling the punishment 'draconian". He also revealed the legend was 'extremely upset" over the sanction that sidelined him for an important match. 'To fill stadiums and sell tickets, nobody complains. It's strange, one day they say something, and the next day they say something else. We all heard what was said — that it was understandable the number of matches that he had been playing," said Miami's coach Javier Mascherano, reiterating that the ban was imposed despite the club informing MLS officials about the fatigue Messi dealt with amidst a congested schedule. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
