Christian Yelich homers twice, drives in 4 runs as Milwaukee Brewers beat NL-leading Philadelphia Phillies

Christian Yelich hit two homers and drove in four runs, and Milwaukee limited National League-leading Philadelphia to four hits as the Brewers beat the Phillies 6-2 on Friday night for their fifth straight win. Yelich hit a three-run homer on the first pitch from Philadelphia reliever Tanner Banks in the fifth inning to break open a close game. He hit his 12th of the season, a solo shot, into the second deck at Citizens Bank Park off righty Carlos Hernandez to lead off the ninth. It was Yelich's 12th career multi-homer game and the second of the season. Yelich's shot off Banks was his first off a lefty this season. Before the at-bat, he was hitting .147 against left-handers. Brewers opener DL Hall pitched three no-hit innings and Quinn Priester (2-2) worked six innings of relief, allowing two runs on four hits for the win. Williams Contreras and Sal Frelick added RBIs, Jackson Chourio had two hits and scored twice for the Brewers, who stole five bases. Nick Castellanos hit a solo homer for the Phillies, who lost consecutive games for the first time since April 23-25. Phillies starter Taijuan Walker (2-4) pitched four innings and allowed four runs in what manager Rob Thomson previously indicated would be his final start before returning to the bullpen. Key moment With the tying run in scoring position and no outs, Priester coaxed three groundball outs in the bottom of the fourth to maintain the lead, setting up the next inning for Yelich's three-run shot. Key stat Kyle Schwarber has reached base safely in 55 of the Phillies' 57 games this season. He had a pair of doubles and an RBI against the Brewers. Up next Milwaukee will start RHP Chad Patrick (2-4, 2.97 ERA) against Philadelphia LHP Jesús Luzardo (5-0, 2.15) on Saturday.

Pirates waste Paul Skenes' complete game, lose 1-0 for the sweep

This article originally appeared on Paul Skenes put together the first complete game of his big league career on Sunday, May 18 in Philadelphia; naturally, the Pirates lost 1-0. Skenes mowed through eight innings on an economical 102 pitches, striking out nine batters and allowing one run. The Pirates (15-32) have lost eight games via shutout this season, more than one in every six. Advertisement That was all the Phillies needed, a pair of fifth-inning singles — the first after Ke'Bryan Hayes got a glove on a ground ball but lost it — spelling doom for the Pirates. Shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa had a chance at a double play to end the threat after a groundball from Phillies' center fielder Brandon Marsh, but with no one there to cover second base, he had to run to the bag himself, running out of time to throw to first. Instead, Nick Castellanos scored what went on to become the winning run. Click here to read more from Download the FREE WPXI News app for breaking news alerts.
