Contreras gets 4 hits again and Brewers’ combined no-hit bid spoiled in 6-1 win over Nationals

WASHINGTON (AP) — William Contreras had four hits for the second straight game, Jacob Misiorowski had a no-hitter through 5 1/3 innings before leaving with a right hamstring cramp and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Washington Nationals 6-1 on Friday night.

Contreras became the seventh player in Brewers history to have four hits in back-to-back games and the first since Casey McGehee in 2010. Contreras went 4 for 5 with three RBIs — after going 4 for 4 with a homer and four RBIs in a 13-1 victory over the Diamondbacks on Thursday.

Misiorowski left the game after throwing a 98.9 mph fastball to James Wood. Aaron Ashby entered the game and struck out Wood before Luis García Jr. grounded out to end the inning.

Misiorowski (2-2) struck out eight, including García in the first inning on a 102.3 mph fastball. He worked a hitless outing for the first time since a five-inning stint June 12 against the St. Louis Cardinals.
