Peralta cruises as Brewers bounce Dodgers

Wily Peralta's lack of early season luck seems to be changing.

Peralta received five runs of support in the first inning, then cruised through eight strong innings as the Brewers beat the Dodgers 6-3 Wednesday night, guaranteeing at least a split of the four game series.

Scooter Gennett and Adam Lind homered in the Brewers 5-run first. Peralta, who was receiving less than a run of support per start coming into Wednesday's game, relaxed and settled into a groove, striking out six Dodgers without allowing a walk.

The four game series wraps up at 12:40 Thursday afternoon.
