The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Los Angeles Angels 6-2 on Friday night, powered by a five-run fifth inning featuring home runs by Brice Turang and Jake Bauers. Shane Drohan earns the win after striking out seven in six innings. He allows two runs on four hits and issues one walk while continuing a strong stretch that includes his fifth consecutive start of at least six innings. Milwaukee, which enters with the NL Central lead, improves its form with a ninth win in 13 games.
After the fifth inning rally, the Brewers’ bullpen maintains the advantage. Grant Anderson pitches a scoreless seventh, getting through the frame on a one-two-three sequence. In the eighth, Abner Uribe records two outs. Trevor Megill closes the game by retiring the side in order in the ninth, including a strikeout. The combined pitching effort and timely power from Turang and Bauers secure the final margin for Milwaukee.
