MILWAUKEE—Freddy Peralta pitched six scoreless innings, catcher William Contreras capped a five-run fifth inning with a two-run home run, and the Milwaukee Brewers hung on to beat the San Francisco Giants 5–3 on Wednesday night.
Peralta (9–7) allowed two walks and Thairo Estrada’s base hit through five innings as the Brewers built a 5–0 lead. The Giants threatened in the sixth with a two-out single by Tyler Fitzgerald and a walk before Peralta struck out Heliot Ramos and let out a scream as he walked from the mound.
