Dodgers Offense Struggles Again In 2-1 Loss To Brewers
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Shaun Marcum outpitched Jon Garland to win his fifth straight decision, Carlos Gomez robbed Juan Uribe of a homer and Rickie Weeks singled home the go-ahead run to lead the Milwaukee Brewers over the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-1 on Monday night.
The Brewers, coming off a three-game sweep against Pittsburgh, have won seven of nine following a seven-game losing streak.
Prince Fielder drove in their other run with a third-inning single.
Marcum (5-1) allowed a run and five hits over seven innings and struck out four.
The right-hander's only loss was in his Brewers debut April 2. He has a 2.08 ERA in eight starts since.
Garland (1-3) threw 94 pitches in six innings, allowing two runs, seven hits and four walks with one strikeout.
