Tampa Bay Rays vs Milwaukee Brewers Match Player Stats On Apr 30, 2024

Milwaukee's Freddy Peralta allowed just one hit -- a solo homer by Jose Siri -- before being ejected in the sixth inning during the Brewers' wild 8-2 victory over the visiting Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night in a game also marred by an eighth-inning fight.

Peralta was ejected with one out in the sixth with Milwaukee up 6-1 after hitting Siri with a pitch. Brewers manager Pat Murphy was also ejected. Siri then advanced to second on a wild pitch by reliever Elvis Peguero and scored on Richie Palacios' single.

In the eighth inning, Siri and Brewers reliever Abner Uribe exchanged words, then punches, after Siri grounded out to first, with players from each team rushing onto the field.

Peralta (3-0) allowed two runs in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out seven, walked none and hit two batters in a 66-pitch outing.

Willy Adames put the Brewers up 6-1 in the fifth with his fourth homer of the season, a three-run shot. Rhys Hoskins was hit by a pitch and moved to third on a single by highly touted prospect Tyler Black, who was making his big-league debut. Adames then sent a 2-0 sinker from reliever Jacob Lopez 400 feet to center.

Milwaukee made it 8-2 in the seventh when Joey Ortiz and Jackson Chourio drew back-to-back two-out walks and Brice Turang lined a two-run double to right-center.

Rays starter Tyler Alexander (1-1) allowed three runs on six hits in four innings, striking out three and walking two.

The Brewers took a 1-0 lead in the first on Adames' one-out sacrifice fly.

Milwaukee made it to 3-0 in the second on an RBI single by Turang and William Contreras' sacrifice fly.

Peralta retired the first eight hitters he faced before Siri made it 3-1 with his second homer of the year, a two-out solo shot in the third.

Black, called up earlier Tuesday from Triple-A Nashville, entered the game in the first inning as a pinch runner when Gary Sanchez exited with right hamstring tightness. Black doubled off the glove of Siri in center field in his first major league plate appearance in the third.
