Anderson, Gennett Lead Brewers To 4-0 Win Over Athletics

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Chase Anderson pitched 6 2/3 strong innings, Scooter Gennett drove in three runs and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Oakland Athletics 4-0 on Wednesday night.

Anderson (4-6) retired the first nine batters before Coco Crisp reached on first baseman Chris Carter's error leading off the fourth. Anderson stranded Crisp, retiring the next seven batters before pinch-hitter Jake Smolinski beat a shift in the sixth and broke up the right-hander's second notable no-hit bid this season.

Gennett keyed the offense off Jesse Hahn (2-4) with a run-scoring single in the first and a two-run base hit in the fourth.
