CLEVELAND (AP) — Willy Adames homered twice and drove in five runs and Wade Miley pitched six scoreless innings, sending the Milwaukee Brewers to a 7-1 win over the Guardians.

Adames belted a three-run homer in the sixth inning off Shane Bieber.

Milwaukee’s hard-hitting shortstop added a solo shot in the ninth and a run-scoring single as the Brewers won the series opener and first game of a 10-game trip.

Miley allowed just three hits and retired his last 11 batters.

It was the left-hander’s first start against Cleveland since he threw a no-hitter at Progressive Field on May 7, 2021, when he was with Cincinnati.

José Ramírez homered for Cleveland.
