Gurriel’s tiebreaking homer in sixth inning helps Diamondbacks beat Brewers 7-4

Associated Press  

MILWAUKEE — Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit a tiebreaking homer in his return from the injured list as the Arizona Diamondbacks bounced back after blowing a four-run lead and beat the Milwaukee Brewers 7-4 on Friday night. The Diamondbacks moved into sole possession of the NL’s second wild-card spot by taking a one-game lead over the New York Mets, who lost 12-2 to the Philadelphia Phillies. Milwaukee rallied from a 4-0 deficit by homering off Arizona ace Zac Gallen three times in a four-run fifth inning before the Diamondbacks took the lead for good in the sixth. It was the first time the Brewers had homered three times in an inning since Rowdy Tellez, Brian Anderson and Mitchell went deep against three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer in the sixth inning of a 9-0 victory over the New York Mets on April 4, 2023.
