Right-hander Colin Rea will look to help the Milwaukee Brewers complete a three-game sweep of the visiting Angels on Sunday but will have to keep Los Angeles slugger Mike Trout in the ballpark.
Milwaukee held off the Angels 7-5 on Saturday night despite a pair of late two-run homers by Trout, who added a sacrifice fly to drive in all of the Angels' runs. Corbin Burnes allowed one run over six innings for the Brewers, who were outhit 11-5 but capitalized on walks and an error.
Rea was hurt by lack of command in his last start, giving up four runs on five hits with four walks over five innings in a 4-2 loss to the Detroit Tigers on Monday. It also forced the Brewers to use closer Devin Williams for the final out Saturday. Williams also pitched a scoreless ninth to preserve a 2-1 victory Friday night, so he likely is unavailable for Sunday.Rookie shortstop Zach Neto, the Angels' first-round draft pick in 2022, was in the leadoff spot Saturday for the third time since being called up April 15. Neto had two singles and also was hit by a pitch for the seventh time."Guys get hit.
