Brewers rally past White Sox in dramatic 9-7 comeback to sweep series
MILWAUKEE (AP) - Christian Yelich hit a three-run homer off Seranthony Domínguez to cap a six-run rally in the eighth inning as the Milwaukee Brewers completed a season-opening sweep by beating the Chicago White Sox 9-7 on Sunday.
Milwaukee fell behind 7-2 in the first three innings before coming all the way back. Yelich put the Brewers in front with his first career pinch-hit homer, a two-out shot on a 2-2 pitch.
Chicago's Munetaka Murakami homered for a third straight game in a losing cause.
Murakami's 375-foot drive off Brandon Sproat in the second inning made him the fourth player ever to homer in each of his first three career MLB games, according to Sportradar. The others were Trevor Story for Colorado in 2016, Kyle Lewis for Seattle in 2019 and Chase DeLauter for Cleveland this year.
