Willy Adames hits a pair of 2-run homers to help the Brewers rout the Braves 10-0

ATLANTA (AP) — Willy Adames hit a pair of two-run homers and the Milwaukee Brewers routed the Atlanta Braves 10-0, handing them their third straight loss Tuesday night.

Colin Rea (10-3) dominated the Braves for seven innings, striking out a season-high nine batters while allowing five hits and one walk. Rea has not given up a run in his last three road starts, spanning 19 innings.

“When you are executing and changing speeds, it is kind of hard for them to get on balance and get on time,” Rea said. “It is a good lineup, we just did a good job executing tonight.”

The Brewers improved to 14-5 in Rea's 19 starts this season.

“People love playing behind him,” said Brewers manager Pat Murphy. “They love that he fills up the zone. He never makes an excuse and he’s prepared for his start.”

Adames was 4 for 5 with four RBIs, giving him 75 on the season. William Contreras was 3 for 4 with four RBIs and two runs scored. Joey Ortiz, Rhys Hoskins, Jackson Chourio and Brice Turang had two hits apiece as the Brewers finished with 16.

Bryce Elder (2-5) gave up seven runs on eight hits in just 3 2/3 innings. He struck out six and walked two. Braves manager Brian Snitker said Elder will be sent to Triple-A and a reliever will be brought up Wednesday. Elder has a 6.52 ERA in 10 starts.

Elder faced the Brewers a week ago and held them to one run in 6 1/3 innings in Milwaukee. The tables turned quickly at Truist Park, with the Brewers scoring three in the first. Turang led off with a single and stole second, then came home when Contreras tripled to right field on a ball that sent Jorge Soler crashing into the wall. Adames followed that up with a 426-foot home run to center field.

“It was the same everything,” Contreras said when asked what the difference was against Elder the second time around. “We went out there with the same approach and we connected this time. Obviously, that led to the result of the game for us.”

Ortiz knocked in Rhys Hoskins in the second inning, then Adames hit his second two-run homer in the third, again driving in Contreras. Sal Frelick scored on an RBI single by Turang, and Elder was gone one batter later.

Contreras added a two-out RBI double in the sixth to right field.

Braves first baseman Matt Olson was 2 for 4 with two doubles.

The Braves have been shut out in back-to-back games and are 2-7 in their last nine home games.

“We have been so accustomed to being an offensive force here,” Snitker said. “Now all of the sudden we're not, for whatever reason.”

TRAINER’S ROOM

Brewers: LHP Bryan Hudson (oblique) will throw a multi-inning rehab appearance at Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Braves: OF Michael Harris II began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett and went 1 for 4 with a walk as a DH. He may return to the team during its upcoming 10-game road trip, which starts Friday. Snitker said Harris will start off as DH and then play the outfield before rejoining the big club. He is eligible to be activated on Aug. 14. ... Starter Reynaldo López (7-4, 2.06 ERA) played catch for the first time Tuesday since leaving his July 28 start with forearm tightness. He is on the 15-day IL and is eligible to return Aug. 17.

UP NEXT

LOS ANGELES (AP) — If it seems like the Emmys just happened, you're not wrong.

The 76th Emmy Awards are Sunday, roughly nine months after the last celebration of the best television. Last year's Hollywood strikes delayed the show's 75th edition until January, when “Succession” and “The Bear” dominated the show.

“The Bear” will factor heavily in this weekend's show, but January's “Succession” celebration was for its final season, clearing the way for a new drama series winner.

Enter “Shogun.” The FX series about feudal Japan enters the show with 14 wins thanks to the Creative Arts Emmy ceremony last weekend. That makes it the record-holder for most wins for a single season, and it will likely extend that lead.

Here’s what you need to know about Sunday's Emmys, including how to watch and stream the red carpet and show, and who’s nominated.

The show begins at 8 p.m. Eastern and is being shown live on ABC, which is available with an antenna or through cable and satellite providers.

The Emmys can be streamed live through live TV streaming services that include ABC in their lineup, like Hulu+ Live TV, YouTube TV and FuboTV.

For those without the service, the show will be streaming Monday on Hulu.

Lots of folks from “Shogun,” including actor Néstor Carbonell. Maya Rudolph also won a trophy for her work on “Big Mouth,” and Jamie Lee Curtis claimed her first Emmy for her guest appearance on “The Bear.”

The Creative Arts Emmys honor many of the craft workers who make shows work, leaving the top prizes for Sunday's ceremony, which will be hosted by actors Eugene and Dan Levy.

The Emmys are watchable in dozens of countries. The Television Academy website has a handy list of broadcasters and in some instances, air times. You can access that at https://www.emmys.com/watch.

“Live from E!” will begin airing its red carpet coverage at 6 p.m. Eastern on the cable network E!. Laverne Cox, the first transgender person to receive an Emmy nomination, will host the coverage along with comedian Heather McMahan and E! News' Keltie Knight.

People magazine and Entertainment Weekly will also host a live red carpet show on their websites and YouTube, also starting at 6 p.m.

“Shogun” is the leading nominee with 25, while “The Bear” has 23, including best comedy series and best actor in a comedy series for Jeremy Allen White — both awards it won at January’s strike-delayed ceremony. Ayo Edebiri, who won best supporting actress in January, is nominated in the best comedy actress field this time.

“The Crown” with 19 nominations and “Hacks” with 16 each return to the Emmys after their own years off. Elizabeth Debicki is nominated for best supporting actress in a drama for playing Princess Diana, while Imelda Staunton is nominated for playing Queen Elizabeth II.

Two-time Academy Award winner Jodie Foster is a good bet to win her first Emmy as best actress in a limited or anthology series or TV movie for her role in “True Detective: Night Country.”

Reigning best supporting actor Oscar winner Robert Downey Jr. could also become a first-time Emmy winner. He’s up for best supporting actor in the limited series category for playing five different roles in “The Sympathizer.”
