Brewers Shut Out Dodgers 2-0 for 8th Straight Win in LA

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2025

The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-0 on Friday night, extending their winning streak to eight games. Quinn Priester outpitched Tyler Glasnow for six dominant innings, while Caleb Durbin provided all the offense with a crucial RBI double and a solo home run.

This victory matched the Brewers' longest winning streak of the season, previously achieved from May 25 to June 2. Milwaukee continued its strong performance against the National League West leaders, having outscored the Dodgers 15-4 during a three-game sweep in Milwaukee last week.

Priester (8-2) delivered a stellar outing, allowing just three hits and striking out a season-high 10 batters over six scoreless innings, throwing only 77 pitches. He impressively struck out the side in both the first and fifth innings. All-Star closer Trevor Megill secured his 22nd save of the season by closing out the ninth inning.

Caleb Durbin ignited the Brewers' offense, first driving in a run with an RBI double into the left-field corner in the fifth inning, scoring Isaac Collins who had walked to lead off the frame. Durbin later blasted a 410-foot solo home run to straightaway center field off reliever Kirby Yates with two outs in the seventh, emphatically yelling "Let's go!" as he rounded the bases.

Tyler Glasnow (1-1) took the loss for the Dodgers, giving up one run on four hits over six innings while striking out six. The Dodgers' offense struggled significantly, being held to just three hits in the game, marking their eighth loss in the last ten contests.

Key Moment

The Dodgers had potential tying runs in scoring position twice but failed to convert. Freddie Freeman doubled in the fourth inning, but Will Smith then lined into a double play, resulting in Freeman being doubled off second. In the sixth, Shohei Ohtani reached base on a throwing error by shortstop Joey Ortiz and subsequently stole second, only for Mookie Betts to strike out swinging, ending the inning without a run.

Key Stat

The NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers were held to a mere three hits throughout the game, contributing to their recent slide of eight losses in ten games.

Up Next

All-Star right-hander Freddy Peralta (11-4, 2.66 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday. The Los Angeles Dodgers will counter with right-hander Emmet Sheehan (1-0, 2.03 ERA).

In summary

The Milwaukee Brewers extended their impressive winning streak to eight games by shutting out the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-0. Brewers pitcher Quinn Priester delivered a dominant performance, striking out 10 over six scoreless innings. Offensively, Caleb Durbin was the hero, providing both runs with an RBI double and a solo home run. The Dodgers' offense struggled, managing only three hits and failing to capitalize on scoring opportunities, contributing to their recent slump. This victory showcased Milwaukee's strong form and continued their dominance over the NL West leaders.
