Brewers bats clobber Phillies in series opener

MILWAUKEE -- After three tense games against the Cubs that were closer than some of the scores suggested, Brent Suter and the Brewers made sure there was little drama at Miller Park on Friday night.

Suter joined another Brewers outburst at the Phillies' expense, scoring twice and logging a pair of RBIs in a 13-2 blowout that featured four Philadelphia errors and got so lopsided that manager Gabe Kapler sent infielder Jesmuel Valentin to the mound for the bottom of the eighth inning. He gave up three runs, including a two-run homer to Jesus Aguilar.
