Brewers continue dominance of Dodgers with shutout
Priester (8-2) allowed three hits over six scoreless innings and did not walk a batter. He finished one strikeout short of his career high to win his seventh consecutive decision since May 30. All-Star closer Trevor Megill pitched the ninth inning for his 22nd save.
Milwaukee is 4-0 against Los Angeles following a three-game sweep at home last week.
Right-hander Tyler Glasnow gave up one run on four hits over six innings with six strikeouts for Los Angeles in his second start after missing 2 1/2 months because of shoulder inflammation.
The Dodgers finished with three hits, continuing a trend that saw them struggle to put together offense before the break. The defending champions have now lost eight of their last 10 games.
Glasnow (1-1) walked just one batter but it proved costly. The Brewers' Isaac Collins received a free pass to open the fifth inning and scored on a one-out double by Durbin for a 1-0 lead.
After Priester fanned Mookie Betts to end the sixth for his 10th strikeout, Durbin delivered a two-out home run to center -- his fifth of the season -- off right-hander Kirby Yates for a 2-0 advantage.
The Dodgers had just two batters reach second base: Freddie Freeman on a double in the fourth inning and Shohei Ohtani on a stolen base in the sixth. Los Angeles was shut out for the first time since a 5-0 road loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on June 6, and for the fifth time this season.
The Brewers' Christian Yelich went 1-for-4 to extend on-base streak to 25 games, while Jackson Chourio went 1-for-4 to extend his hit streak to 12 games.
Milwaukee outfielder Blake Perkins, who fractured his lower right leg in spring training, made his season debut when he entered in the seventh inning. He had a bunt single in the eighth on the first pitch he saw this year.

Philadelphia Phillies Sign Reliever David Robertson to 1-Year Deal
The Philadelphia Phillies have signed right-hander David Robertson to a $15.7 million, one-year contract, prorated to $6 million through the end of the regular season, to bolster their bullpen in a bid to outlast the New York Mets and win a second straight NL East title. Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski made the move Monday, optioning the 40-year-old reliever to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Robertson was a key pitcher for the New York Yankees when they won the 2009 World Series and was an All-Star two years later with the franchise. He helped the Phillies reach the 2022 World Series, going 1-0 with a 1.17 ERA in eight postseason games, and also played for them in 2019. Robertson was 3-4 with a 3.00 ERA in 68 games — two shy of his career high — and had two saves last season in Texas. He declined a $7 million mutual option, triggering a $1.5 million buyout and making him a free agent. He is 66-46 with a 2.91 ERA with 177 saves and 1,154 strikeouts, ranking 11th all time among relievers. The Yankees drafted the former Alabama player 17th overall in 2016 and he also pitched for the Chicago White Sox, Philadelphia, Tampa Bay, Chicago Cubs, New York Mets, Miami and the Rangers. The Phillies and Mets are in a closely contested race for first in the NL East with 60-plus games remaining in the regular season.
