William Contreras, Garrett Mitchell, Willy Adames and Jake Bauers also went deep for the Brewers, who fell one homer short of matching the franchise record.

Atlanta lost its fifth straight despite a three-run homer from Austin Riley and a solo shot from Marcell Ozuna.

Giants 9, Marlins 5 (10 innings)

Mark Canha finished 4-for-6 with a pair of RBIs and Michael Conforto went 2-for-4 and knocked in two runs, helping lead visiting San Francisco to a win over Washington in 10 innings.

After both teams scored three runs in the ninth, the Giants posted a four-run 10th, with RBI hits from Brett Wisely and Matt Chapman sandwiching Conforto’s two-run single. Taylor Rogers worked a scoreless bottom of the 10th as the Giants won their 10th in 13 tries.
