PITTSBURGH, PA (WSAU) — Quinn Priester continued his hot streak on Friday, pitching seven strong innings to lift the Milwaukee Brewers to a 5-2 win over Pittsburgh.
Priester allowed six hits and two earned runs, recording six strikeouts and one walk. He’s now 12-2 with an ERA of 3.25.
Brice Turang, William Contreras, and Jake Bauers each recorded two hits. Isaac Collins went 1-4 with a double.
Bauers’ line included a two-run single in the 6th that put Milwaukee up 3-2. Turang and Andrew Vaughn added to the lead in the 8th and 9th.
Abner Uribe pitched a clean 9th for his 5th save of the season.
It’s the 17th straight appearance for Priester that’s ended with a Brewers win. That includes 14 starts and three bulk relief appearances, or games where the team turned to an “opener” with plans for Piester to pitch the majority of the middle innings.
