Milwaukee Brewers All-Star pitcher Freddy Peralta dominated the Los Angeles Dodgers during a series-opening 9-1 victory.

Andrew Vaughn hit a three-run homer in his first plate appearance with his new team, Freddy Peralta threw six shutout innings and the Milwaukee Brewers trounced the Los Angeles Dodgers 9-1.

For the second time in his career, Freddy Peralta will represent the Milwaukee Brewers in the All-Star Game. Major League Baseball announced the All-Star Game reserves and pitchers on July 6. Brewers manager Pat Murphy revealed the honor to Peralta in front of the entire team.

It’s a compelling pitching matchup between Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Brewers veteran Freddy Peralta, but my Dodgers vs. Brewers predictions and MLB picks lean toward L.A.'s offense taking advantage of Peralta in the series opener.

Brewers: Jose Quintana (6-3, 3.44 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, 44 strikeouts) BOTTOM LINE: The Los Angeles Dodgers look to break their five-game slide with a win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Milwaukee is 52-40 overall and 29-17 in home games.
