DENVER -- Aramis Ramirez had three hits, including a solo homer, and Wily Peralta won his fourth straight start as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the error-prone Colorado Rockies 9-4 on Saturday. Patrick Mahomes Jersey . Carlos Gomez extended his hitting streak to 17 games to help the Brewers improve to 5-1 on their seven-game trip. Peralta (8-5) went 7 2-3 solid innings and allowed four runs, three earned. He gave up a two-run single to Justin Morneau in the first and then shut down the leagues best offence until Corey Dickersons two-run homer in the sixth. Christian Friedrich (0-1) lasted six innings and surrendered nine runs, four earned, in his season debut. He was betrayed by his defence as the Rockies committed a season-high four errors. Friedrich is the 11th starting pitcher the Rockies have used this season. The 26-year-old lefty, who missed most of last season due to back inflammation, was 1-8 with a 7.89 ERA for Triple-A Colorado Springs before being recalled. The Brewers have scored 22 runs in the first two games of the series. Milwaukee scored four in the second inning on Saturday and four more in the third, which was more than enough for Peralta. The righty only got stronger as the game went along, still touching 97 mph before being pulled with two on and two out in the eighth. Rob Wooten struck out Mike McKenry to end the threat. Ramirez had his second straight three-hit day. His solo homer in the fifth was his ninth of the season. Mark Reynolds and Gomez also added two hits. Gomez has reached base safely in 34 straight games, the fifth longest streak in franchise history. Colorados faulty fielding in the second opened the door for a big inning. Third baseman Josh Rutledge had two errors in the frame, and second baseman DJ LeMahieu had another trying to turn a double play. Leading 5-2 in the third, the Brewers broke the game open on a strange play with the bases loaded as Friedrichs wild pitch paved the way for all the runners to score. Friedrich sent a pitch past McKenry, who quickly tracked the ball down on the right side of the plate and tossed to Friedrich covering home. The ball sailed over Friedrichs head, allowing Ramirez to score from third and Reynolds from second as the ball rolled toward the Brewers dugout. Jean Segura was on first when the play started, but when Friedrich walked toward the field after picking up the ball -- and a shaken-up McKenry bent over -- Segura hustled home.

We try to get the other team playing out of their comfort zone. I think we frustrated them a little bit with the style of play we had.Fehr, who scored twice during the Capitals win in the 2011 Winter Classic at Pittsburgh, did it again on Saturday with his eighth and ninth goals of the year. Marcus Johansson got his 10th for the Capitals, who won for the fifth time in seven games.Washington also defeated Pittsburgh for the first time since Jan. 22, 2012 — a span of nine games.Holtby, making a career-high 12th straight start, has eight wins during that stretch. It was his 16th win and third shutout of the season on Saturday.I thought we did a great job of everything in the defensive zone, Holtby said. A team like that, theyre obviously going to get some chances, but the way we controlled them in our end was very good.The Penguins, who saw a five-game home win streak end, lost their third straight overall, dropping back-to-back regulation games for the first time this season. Marc-Andre Fleury made 30 saves.Johansson gave Washington a two-goal lead at 5:36 of the third period, snapping a wrist shot past Fleury from the top of the circle during a two-on-one.Fehr was falling to the ice later in the third when he tapped Joel Wards redirection behind Fleury from the top of the crease for his second goal.Its frustrating because we were close, especially in the second, Penguins captain Sidney Crosby said. The next goal is so important and they grabbed the momentum with that second goal. We were hanging around for awhile, but didnt have enough to get that first one.Washington has eight wwins in 12 games this month, but this one was special for Capitals defencemen Brooks Orpik and Matt Niskanen. Len Dawson Jersey. Both played with Pittsburgh last season before signing in Washington as free agents in July. Capitals assistant coach Todd Reirden also was an assistant with the Penguins last season.I think everybody in the room wanted to get the game for (Orpik) and (Niskanen), but also Todd, Capitals coach Barry Trotz said. Theyve been great adds for us.Niskanen led all NHL defencemen with a plus-33 rating last year, establishing a career-best 46 points. Orpik, who won a Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh in 2009, appeared in 703 games, a team record for a defenceman, recording 132 points and 734 penalty minutes. The Penguins picked him in the first round of the 2000 NHL draft and he spent 11 seasons in Pittsburgh.Id be lying if I said it didnt feel a little better than most games, Orpik said. We knew they were missing some guys, so its a good opportunity to kind of jump on them.The Penguins continue to deal with injury and a league-wide mumps outbreak.Forward Steve Downie and backup goaltender Thomas Greiss were the latest confirmed cases, joining captain Sidney Crosby, who missed three games earlier this month, forward Beau Bennett and defenceman Olli Maatta.It feels like every game were losing somebody, Crosby said. Its not easy, but nobodys going to feel sorry for us. We just have to find a way to hold on while guys are out.NOTES: Maatta will be out four weeks while continuing a rehab program on an upper-body injury.
