MILWAUKEE, Aug. 26 (UPI) -- Carlos Monasterios and five relievers teamed for a two-hitter Thursday in helping the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Monasterios started the game but didn't get the win as he was pulled with one out in the fourth inning after loading the bases with a walk and two hit batters. He also hit Rickie Weeks to open the Brewers' first.
He gave up both Milwaukee hits, including Prince Fielder's 26th home run of the season, which came in the fourth inning. He also walked one and struck out three.
Ronald Belisario (2-1) got one out and took the win while George Sherrill, Kenley Jansen, Octavio Dotel and Jeff Weaver all pitched no-hit relief.
Milwaukee starter Yovani Gallardo (11-6) struck out 10 but also allowed six runs and eight hits in 6 1/3 innings and was handed the loss.
Scott Podsednik scored the first run on a ground out but Fielder tied the score three innings later.
The Dodgers scored six runs over three innings. Podsednik broke the tie with a fifth-inning RBI single and Casey Blake made the score 4-1 the next inning with a two-run home run. Ryan Theriot and Reed Johnson singled in runs and Theriot reached home on a wild pitch in a three-run Los Angeles seventh.
