MILWAUKEE — Willy Adames hit a three-run homer in the sixth and rookie Jackson Chourio added a two-run shot in the eighth to lift the Milwaukee Brewers past the Atlanta Braves 8-3 on Monday night. Adames' 416-foot home run came off reliever Jesse Chavez, who took the loss. Joey Ortiz's run-scoring triple in the seventh gave Milwaukee a three-run margin and Chourio's homer gave the Brewers a five-run edge. Grant Holmes, a 28-year-old rookie right-hander who spent nearly 10 years in the minors before being called up in mid-June, made his first career start for the Braves. He gave up three hits and one run in five innings. He struck out eight and didn't issue a walk.
