Bell's 3-run homer in 7th inning helps lift Marlins past Brewers 7-3

“It feels good,” said Bell, who homered for the fourth consecutive game. “For the most part, I feel I’m on time. I feel like I can do damage on mistakes and not chase out of the zone quite as much. Hopefully I can continue to hammer down these feels and then make sure I don’t lose them.”

Pinch-hitter Emmanuel Rivera opened the seventh with a triple. Vidal Bruján walked and Nick Fortes reached on a bunt single that pitcher Jared Koenig couldn’t corral, scoring Rivera to tie it at 3.

Xavier Reynolds advanced the runners with a sacrifice, chasing Koenig (8-2), who had not allowed a run in his seven previous outings.

Bryan De La Cruz greeted reliever Elvis Peguero with an RBI single. Bell then jumped on the first pitch for his 14th homer.

Brian Hoeing (1-2) threw three scoreless innings in relief for the victory.

The victory followed the Jazz Chisholm Jr. to the Yankees for three minor league prospects.

“Part about being a pro is turning the page quick,” Marlins manager Skip Schumaker said. “That’s not easy to do when one of your friends and teammates gets traded. It’s happened a couple times, unfortunately, already this year. But I’m proud of how they came about the game and the effort. Just a really good overall game despite losing their leadoff hitter and starting center fielder.”

Consecutive losses to Miami have saddled the NL Central-leading Brewers with their third consecutive home series loss after winning nine series in a row.

Rhys Hoskins put Milwaukee up 3-2 with a three-run homer in the fourth off starter Max Meyer, recalled earlier Saturday from Triple-A Jacksonville. Willy Adames reached on an infield single and Jake Bauers walked. Hoskins then sent an 0-1 pitch 386 feet to left-center for his 17th homer.

“He’s been incredible, in that he’s producing big home run after big home run after big home run,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. “Of his 17 homers, it feels like 10 of them, or more, were at critical times. We didn’t add on.”

Miami took a 2-0 lead in the second when Jake Burger and Jesús Sánchez opened with consecutive doubles and Jonah Bride followed with an RBI single.
