MILWAUKEE (AP) — Luis Rengifo drove in three runs, Kyle Harrison recorded seven strikeouts in five scoreless innings and the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres 7-1 on Thursday.
The victory capped a 5-1 homestand for the Brewers, who swept the New York Yankees before winning two of three from San Diego.
Harrison (4-1) allowed five hits and no walks to improve his ERA to 2.09.
The Brewers scored three runs in each of the first two innings against Griffin Canning (0-2), who couldn’t make it out of the second.
After starting his day with a strikeout of Jackson Chourio, Canning walked four straight batters. Andrew Vaughn drove in Milwaukee’s first run by taking a 3-2 pitch outside.
Rengifo then hit a two-run single to right.
In the second inning, Brice Turang and Gary Sánchez hit RBI doubles before Vaughn singled home Sánchez.
Canning has yielded 12 runs over six innings in his last two starts.
The Brewers extended the lead to 7-0 in the fourth as Vaughn doubled and scored on a Rengifo single.
Rengifo has gone 7 of 12 over his last three games.
San Diego's Nick Castellanos, who went 2 for 4, scored an unearned run in the ninth inning.
Milwaukee's Christian Yelich was out of the starting lineup for a second straight game. He had been activated from the injured list Tuesday after missing a month with an adductor strain.
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Yelich is dealing with back soreness. Murphy said the Brewers will have a better idea Friday on whether Yelich needs to miss additional time.
Padres: Play a three-game series at Seattle. Friday's scheduled pitchers are Randy Vásquez (4-1, 3.05 ERA) for the Padres and Emerson Hancock (3-1, 3.21) for the Mariners.
Brewers: Head to Minnesota for a three-game series. The Brewers haven't named a starting pitcher for Friday's series opener. Joe Ryan (2-3, 3.43) will pitch for the Twins.
