Kendrick hit his third home run of the season in the second, sending a 1-1 pitch from Anderson over the right-field fence.
The Brewers struck first for a run in the first inning off Maeda. “I can’t really put my finger on it being any one thing”. Turner dumped a single to left to win it for the Dodgers. Utley took off for home after Corey Seager was 2/3 of the way to third on the pop fly – the Brewers had an easy double play at second to end the inning, too.
“I wasn’t surprised at all they loaded the bases for me in that situation”, Turner said. First pitch is scheduled for 1:10PM PST. Garza tried to bare-hand the ball and knocked it down, then grabbed it and turned to throw to first. “He’s not hitting great right now, but I know he can get on base”.
Justin Turner: 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and two runs scored.
Hot-hitting Scooter Gennett got his sixth home run of the season in the first.
The Dodgers bullpen quickly squandered the lead after Urias left. Manager Craig Counsell was disappointed in the blown opportunities, as his team went 3-13 at the plate with runners in scoring position.
Los Angeles starter, 19-year-old lefty Julio Urias blanked the Brewers on five hits over five innings while striking out eight before giving way to the bullpen. Anderson gave up seven runs on six hits in just 2 1/3 innings.
He is 5-0 with a 2.40 ERA in nine outings since his last loss on April 29.
The Milwaukee Brewers need a feel good win after losing five of their last six games.

Baseball’s non-waiver trading deadline is July 31. “It’s much ado about nothing so far”. “I know it’s rehab, but I’m expecting the velocity to increase”, Roberts said.
Hernandez pulled the Dodgers to 1-1 with his first career pinch-hit home run with one out in the eighth, drilling a 2-1 pitch from reliever Will Smith into the left-field bleachers.
Adrian Gonzalez added three hits for Los Angeles, which won for the fourth time in five games thanks to a season-high, six-run outburst in the third inning.
