Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
SAN FRANCISCO, April 14 (UPI) -- Wes Obermueller fired 6 2/3 scoreless innings Wednesday as Milwaukee snapped a three-game losing streak with a 3-0 victory over San Francisco.
Obermueller (1-1) earned his third career win, allowing just three hits and a walk with three strikeouts. He did not face a three-ball count until issuing his lone walk with two outs in the seventh.
The righthander also chipped in an RBI single with two away in the top of the seventh to cap the scoring.
Jeff Bennett and Dan Kolb completed the four-hitter. Bennett worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh and Kolb fired a scoreless ninth for his third save.
Geoff Jenkins belted his first homer of the season in the second off Brian Cooper (0-1) to open the scoring. Four batters later, Gary Bennett singled home a run for a 2-0 lead.
Making his first major league appearance in two years, Cooper yielded two runs and four hits with a walk and two strikeouts in six innings.
