MILWAUKEE, May 22 (UPI) -- Hideo Nomo tossed six scoreless innings against his former team and Shawn Green tripled in the game's only run in the third inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers recorded a 1-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers Wednesday night.
Nomo (4-5) went 12-8 with a 4.54 ERA for Milwaukee in 1999, including a 5-6 mark at old County Stadium. He allowed just four four hits and struck out seven Wednesday to improve to 3-1 against the Brewers.
The Dodgers benefited from some good fortune in the third. Adrian Beltre struck out but reached on a wild pitch by Milwaukee starter Ben Sheets (3-4). Green followed with his triple to put Los Angeles ahead.
Omar Daal pitched 1 1/3 innings of scoreless relief and Paul Quantrill was credited with a pair of outs. Closer Eric Gagne struck out Richie Sexson and Geoff Jenkins to cap a perfect ninth for his 15th save.
