MILWAUKEE (Interstat) — Kyle Harrison pitched six shutout innings and Blake Perkins delivered a three-run homer in the fourth inning as the Milwaukee Brewers blanked the Philadelphia Phillies 4-0 on Sunday afternoon at American Family Field.

Harrison, who improved to 8-1, allowed three hits and struck out three over six innings. He walked none and faced the minimum through three innings before working out of a two-on, one-out jam in the sixth.

Cristopher Sánchez took the loss for Philadelphia, falling to 8-3. The left-hander surrendered four runs on seven hits over 5 2/3 innings, striking out four and walking one.

Milwaukee scored all of its runs in two innings. Jackson Chourio led off the bottom of the first with his ninth home run of the season, a solo shot to center field against Sánchez. The Brewers then broke the game open in the fourth.

William Contreras singled to lead off the fourth and Gary Sánchez followed with a sharp single to center, putting runners at the corners. Luis Rengifo then grounded into a fielder’s choice on which Contreras was thrown out at home, leaving runners at first and second with one out. Garrett Mitchell struck out for the second out. Perkins then launched his first home run of the season to left-center field, scoring Sánchez and Rengifo and giving Milwaukee a 4-0 lead.

Perkins finished 2-for-4 with three RBIs and a double. Chourio went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI. Contreras also had two hits, including a double, and scored once.

Harrison retired the side in order in the first, second and fourth innings. He allowed only a single to Derek Hill in the third, but Hill was erased on a line-drive double play when Kyle Schwarber lined into an unassisted double play at first base. Harrison set down the next seven batters before allowing a one-out single to Bryson Stott in the fifth. Stott was left stranded when Rafael Marchán popped out.

Philadelphia managed only four hits in the game. Hill, Stott, Schwarber and Justin Crawford each had a single. The Phillies did not advance a runner past second base after the third inning.

Abner Uribe worked a scoreless seventh inning, allowing one hit. He struck out none in his one inning of work.

The attendance was 40,131. The game lasted 2 hours, 31 minutes.

The Brewers improved to 43-26, while the Phillies fell to 38-33.

Milwaukee took two of three games in the weekend series, winning 6-0 on Friday and losing 9-8 on Saturday. Philadelphia had won four of its previous five games entering the series, while Milwaukee had won nine of its previous 12.

The Brewers will host the Cleveland Guardians starting Tuesday. The Phillies return home to face the Miami Marlins on Monday.
