PITTSBURGH (AP) — Khris Davis delivered the biggest hit in a game interrupted by a punch-filled brawl, homering in the 14th inning to lift the Milwaukee Brewers over the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 Sunday.
Brewers center fielder Carlos Gomez, Pirates outfielder Travis Snider and Milwaukee bench coach Jerry Narron were ejected after the third-inning fracas.
The problems started when Gomez paused at the plate and flipped his bat after hitting a two-out triple. Pitcher Gerrit Cole, who was near third base backing up the play, stormed toward Gomez and they exchanged words.
Gomez took a couple steps toward Cole before players rushed the field from both dugouts. Milwaukee's Martin Maldonado threw a punch that knocked off Snider's hat.
Ryan Braun's 3rd homer in two games tied the contest at 2 in the 9th inning.
Appearing in his 3rd straight game, Francisco Rodriguez saved his 7th in as many chances, the Brewers won their third in a row and sent Pittsburgh to its third straight loss.
Ron Roenicke's ball club comes home with baseball's best record at 14 and 5 (9-1 on the road).
