–A two-run single from Nicky Lopez in the sixth inning helped the Royals sweep the two-game series with the Brewers at American Family Field in Milwaukee on Wednesday afternoon.
The Brewers fell behind 2-0 early on, but rallied in the fifth to take a 3-2 lead on an RBI groundout from Willy Adames. Hunter Dozier started Royals’ rally in the sixth with a run-scoring single to tie the game, then Lopez doubled in the go-ahead runs for a 5-3 advantage. Jorge Soler added an insurance run in the eighth inning with a mammoth 438-foot shot to left center to create the final margin.
Christian Yelich had a pair of hits and drove in a run to lead the Brewers offense in the loss.
Brent Suter took the loss in relief – giving up three runs on four hits in the sixth inning. Royals starter Brad Keller got the victory – allowing three runs on six hits, while striking out six in 6 & ⅔ innings of work.
