ATLANTA, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Prince Fielder knocked in three runs with two homers Saturday, propelling Milwaukee to a 4-2 win over Atlanta.
Fielder's home run total rose to 25 with a solo shot in the top of the seventh and a two-run shot in the eighth. Jason Kendall hit a seventh-inning RBI single.
Corey Hart and Craig Counsell also had one hit apiece for the Brewers, who made the most of five hits in their second straight victory.

In 8 1/3 innings, he surrendered two earned runs and six hits with one walk and nine strikeouts.
Closer Salomon Torres snuffed out a ninth-inning rally to earn his 21st save.
