Vaughn Homers in Brewers Debut, Brewers Beat Dodgers

Andrew Vaughn made a memorable debut for the Milwaukee Brewers, hitting a three-run home run in his first at-bat after being called up from Triple-A Nashville to replace the injured Rhys Hoskins. Vaughn became just the fifth player in Brewers history to homer in his first plate appearance with the team. His home run helped the Brewers secure a 9-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, with starting pitcher Freddy Peralta delivering six shutout innings for his tenth victory of the season. The Dodgers, who recently had the best record in the National League, have now lost four straight games, surrendering 38 runs during that stretch. Vaughn credited his improved swing consistency for the strong debut and provided a needed offensive boost in Hoskins' absence. The Brewers view Vaughn as a key part of their lineup while Hoskins recovers.
