MILWAUKEE -- With Jonathan Lucroy no longer around, the Milwaukee Brewers have needed Ryan Braun to carry an even heavier offensive load.Braun continued his torrid second half by hitting two homers, doubling and driving in six runs Sunday as the Brewers avoided a sweep with a 7-3 win over the Cincinnati Reds.Hes really locked in and producing, for sure, Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell said. We were worried a little about what would happen after losing the hitter (Jonathan Lucroy) behind him, but hes responded really well and hes certainly been swinging the bat great.Braun hit a two-run double in the first inning, a three-run homer in the second and his 22nd home run in the fourth.It was Brauns fourth multihomer game of the season and the 26th of his career. He is hitting .381 (32 for 84) with nine home runs and 21 RBI in 23 games since the All-Star break.Over the last couple weeks Ive swung the bat pretty well and the pitches that I have gotten to hit, I havent missed many of them, Braun said. Thats what leads to sustained success.Joey Votto homered, doubled and drove in all three Reds runs.Wily Peralta (5-8) allowed one run on four hits over six innings to earn his first win since June 11.Making the most of a second chance, Peralta has a 2.25 ERA in two starts since being recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Aug. 8. He was clocked as high as 99 mph Sunday.It feels great, Peralta said. I think Im in good shape right now. My mechanics have been pretty good. Thats one of the reasons my velocity has been there, has been up in my last few starts. Just being consistent in my delivery, thats all.Rookie Cody Reed (0-7) was tagged for six runs on five hits and three walks before being pulled after Brauns home run in the second. Braun homered later off reliever Keyvius Sampson.Reed needed 46 pitches to get through the first inning. Nine Brewers came to the plate, combining for two hits, three walks, a hit batter and four stolen bases.I just wasnt making very good pitches, Reed said. Its not like Im trying to make bad pitches. I just, like I said, getting out there and compete the best I can, and Im not giving my team a very good chance to win. Ever since Ive been here, every time I go out, Im not giving them a very good chance. Its frustrating for me.Billy Hamilton had three hits for the Reds, including two doubles. He scored from first on Vottos bloop double in the sixth.Votto hit his 19th homer of the season off Carlos Torres in the eighth.GOING DEEPMilwaukee has homered in 17 straight games, its longest run since setting the franchise record at 20 games from July 1-24, 2008.GETTING INTO THE ACTBrewers 1B Chris Carter stole his first base in 182 games when he swiped second in the first inning.

However, immediately after that, Verstappen refused to give up the position, despite being advised to by Red Bull, prompting an expletive-laden rant from Vettel.Verstappen said Vettels recent demeanour on radio has been ridiculous and, despite being the youngest driver on the grid, suggested the Ferrari driver seek out some language classes.?I dont know how often hes using very bad language in general but I think he has to go back to school or something to get some better language, Vettel said. I will speak to him because its ridiculous the way hes handling it. Hes always so frustrated, the whole weekend hes just shouting on the radio. Hes just a frustrated guy at the moment.Verstappen refusing to yield position meant his Red Bull teammate Daniel Ricciardo closed up to Vettel, with the pair nearly colliding at Turn 4 as the Ferrari driver appeared to move under braking to defend fourth position.dddddddddddd Vettel has previously criticised Verstappen for doing the same and the Dutchman could not resist a little dig at the four-time world champions driving late on.I saw the footage already. At least I can do it in a good way, because its ridiculous what he did. Daniel is alongside him and he just turned into him. They touched and then he started shouting on the radio.Verstappen crossed the line third but was immediately handed a five-second penalty, demoting him to fifth. Verstappen questioned why he was penalised when race leader Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg went wide at Turn 1 at the start and were not.I think its pretty similar to what happened in lap one, corner one, Lewis went off and gained a massive advantage. Nico also went off at Turn 1 when we touched, he also gained an advantage.[With Seb] I didnt even gain an advantage, I was still ahead under braking, when I came back on track I was same length in front, so I think its ridiculous ' ' '
