Seth Brown hit a game-altering three-run homer in the fourth inning and Brent Rooker followed with a solo shot as the Oakland Athletics ran their winning streak to five games by beating the host Milwaukee Brewers 8-6 on Sunday.
Esteury Ruiz doubled in two important insurance runs in the ninth as Oakland swept the three-game series, their first sweep of the season and their first five-game winning streak since 2021.
Left-hander JP Sears picked up his first win since last Sept. 20. In five innings, he allowed two runs on six hits and a hit batter and struck out five. Ryan Noda singled to open the fourth and Peralta hit the next batter. Brown then won an 11-pitch at-bat with Peralta, hammering a line-drive homer to right field, his fourth of the season. Rooker followed with his 13th, a 413-foot shot to left field.
