MLB: Seth Brown, Brent Rooker and Kevin Smith all homer as Oakland A’s complete sweep of Milwaukee Brewers
MILWAUKEE — The A’s used a trio of home runs Sunday to earn an 8-6 win over the Milwaukee Brewers, completing their first series sweep of the season as they continue to ride their longest winning streak in nearly two years.
Next comes an A’s homestand that includes a protest by fans who hope to pack the Coliseum on Tuesday night to show their opposition to owner John Fisher’s proposed move to Las Vegas. Nothing like a hot streak to draw a crowd. Since falling 5-4 at Pittsburgh on Monday for their 15th straight road loss, the Athletics have gone 5-0 on the road against the NL Central’s top two teams — the Pirates and Brewers.
Oakland trailed 2-0 before pulling ahead for good by scoring four runs in the fourth off Freddy Peralta . The Brewers trailed 5-3 but had two on and two out in the eighth when Tellez hit a deep drive off Richard Lovelady that Esteury Ruiz caught at the center-field warning track.
