Andrew Vaughn hit a three-run home run in his first at-bat with Milwaukee and Freddy Peralta tossed six scoreless innings to pace the Brewers to a 9-1 victory over the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday in the opener of a three-game series.
Peralta (10-4), the Brewers' lone All-Star selection, scattered five hits, striking out seven and walking one. Aaron Ashby allowed an RBI single to Esteury Ruiz in the eighth.
Christian Yelich added a home run for the Brewers, who have won three of four.
Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto (8-7) failed to get out of the first inning, allowing five runs (three earned) on four hits with two walks. He needed 41 pitches to get two outs.
Vaughn, acquired last month in a trade with the White Sox for pitcher Aaron Civale, was called up earlier Monday from Triple-Nashville when Rhys Hoskins went on the 10-day injured list with a sprained left thumb.
Vaughn, who had five homers in 48 games with the White Sox, staked the Brewers to a 3-0 lead in a five-run first. Sal Frelick doubled to open and William Contreras walked. With two outs, Vaughn sent a 2-2 pitch 409 feet to left-center.
Isaac Collins singled and Brice Turang walked. Collins scored from second when Caleb Durbin reached on a throwing error by shortstop Mookie Betts to make it 4-0. Andruw Monasterio followed with a bloop RBI single to shallow right, chasing Yamamoto.
The Brewers loaded the bases against Will Klein in the fifth on two walks and an infield single. Turang singled in two runs with two outs to make it 7-0.
The Dodgers threatened in the sixth on consecutive two-out singles by Freddie Freeman and Will Smith, but Peralta retired Andy Pages on a hard-hit comebacker.
Yelich made it 9-0 in the seventh with his 18th homer, a two-run shot off Julian Fernandez.
