Jake Cronenworth hit a pair of two-run homers and finished with six RBIs Saturday afternoon as the San Diego Padres defeated the visiting Milwaukee Brewers 10-3 to end a three-game losing streak.
Cronenworth's first homer off Brewers' starter Freddy Peralta broke a 3-3 tie in the fifth. Cronenworth's second homer, a 410-foot line drive to center off Hoby Milner, capped a three-run seventh. It was the first multi-homer game of Cronenworth's career.
Peralta took the loss, giving up five runs on nine hits and a walk with five strikeouts in five innings. Christian Yelich drew a game-opening walk and scored on Jesse Winker's double into the right-field corner. Winker scored on a two-out single to right by Brian Anderson. Milwaukee has scored eight runs in the first innings of the first three games in the series.
The Padres took a 3-2 lead in the second when Trent Grisham doubled with two out and scored on Manny Machado's single.
