MILWAUKEE -- Garrett Mitchell hit a solo homer in the seventh inning to lift the Milwaukee Brewers to a 2-1 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday night.
After the Guardians tied it 1-all in the seventh, Hunter Gaddis (1-2) relieved and Mitchell opened the bottom half of the inning with his fifth homer, sending a 2-1 pitch 440 feet to center.
After being held to three hits through six scoreless innings, the Guardians tied it with a run off Aaron Ashby (10-0). Stuart Fairchild walked with one out, advanced on a wild pitch, and came home on Gabriel Arias two-out single.
Abner Uribe tossed a scoreless eighth, stranding a runner at third, and Trevor Megill completed the combined four-hitter with a perfect ninth for his ninth save in 11 opportunities.
Brice Turang snapped a scoreless tie in the fourth with his 11th homer, a two-out solo shot off Slade Cecconi for a 1-0 Milwaukee lead.
The Guardians stranded runners on second and third in the sixth. Joel Kuhnel relieved with a runner on first and two outs, but allowed a double to Rhys Hoskins . Kuhnel got pinch-hitter Daniel Schneemann to hit into an inning-ending ground out.
Highly-touted shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt , who recently signed an eight-year, $50.75 million contract, made his Brewers debut. He was hitless with three groundouts in three at-bats.
On the first ball he fielded, Pratt initiated a double play to end the second inning. In the fourth inning, however, Pratts high throw allowed the leadoff runner to reach on an error.
Brewers starter Robert Gasser , seeking his first big league win since undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2024, allowed two hits over 5 2/3 scoreless innings, striking out five and walking two.
Gavin Williams (9-3, 3.32 ERA) starts for the Guardians on Wednesday, while Brandon Sproat (1-4, 5.70) starts for the Brewers.
