BALTIMORE — Freddy Peralta struck out 11 in six outstanding innings, and the Milwaukee Brewers hit three home runs in an 11-1 rout of the Baltimore Orioles that included a bench-clearing incident in the sixth inning. Gary Sánchez, Willy Adames and William Contreras went deep for the National League-leading Brewers, who have scored 47 runs in their last five games. They scored three runs each in the second, fifth and sixth to take the series opener. This matchup become a lot more intriguing after Milwaukee traded ace Corbin Burnes to the Orioles for left-hander DL Hall and infielder Joey Oritz in the offseason. Hall pitches Saturday and Burnes takes the mound Sunday.
