MILWAUKEE -- This is what Wily Peralta has been waiting for. The right-hander allowed two hits in seven innings and Jean Segura homered to lead the Milwaukee Brewers past the Atlanta Braves 2-0 Friday night for their second shutout of the season. Peralta (5-8) won for the second time in his last eight starts, giving up two singles to go with four strikeouts and four walks. It was the first time all season he gave up fewer than two runs in a game. Afterward, he was asked if it was his best game of the year. "Yeah, for sure," Peralta said. "I kept the ball down all day." Francisco Rodriguez pitched the eighth and Jim Henderson the ninth for his 10th save. Rodriguez picked up the previous five saves for Milwaukee to reach 299 in his career. Henderson was on the disabled list and then appeared in five games before returning to the closers role against the Braves. Segura finished with three hits, including his 11th homer, and Norichika Aoki added three singles after the birth of his son Thursday. "I was at the hospital all day yesterday," Aoki said. "I didnt get much sleep last night." Atlanta was shut out for the 10th time and lost for the fourth time in five games. "Its just part of the game," B.J. Upton said. "You play long enough you are going to get in stretches like this. Just got to find a way. We are a good enough ballclub. Well be fine." Julio Teheran (5-4) gave up two runs and eight hits in 6 1-3 innings. He struck out five and did not walk a batter. Seguras homer leading off the fifth gave Milwaukee a 2-0 lead. "I was just trying to get a base hit," Segura said. "I was just trying to put a good swing on it and I got it." In the first, Aoki and Segura singled before Carlos Gomez was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Aramis Ramirez gave Milwaukee a 1-0 lead on a sacrifice fly. Gomez was picked off first and Juan Francisco popped out to end the rally. The Braves struggled to score for the second night in a row. After stranding 11 runners in a 4-3 loss to the New York Mets on Thursday, Atlanta was at it again partly because of Teherans inability to execute sacrifice bunts. After the first two batters in the third -- Dan Uggla and Chris Johnson -- walked, Teheran tried a bunt that turned into a force at third. Andrelton Simmons flied out and Jason Heyward grounded out to end the inning. "I missed a little bit," Teheran said. In the fifth, Atlanta got its first hit when Upton led off with a single. He went to second when Uggla flied out to deep centre and advanced to third on an infield single by Johnson. This time, Teheran attempted a safety squeeze and bunted the ball to the right side of the plate. Peralta was able to field the ball in his glove and quickly tossed it to catcher Martin Maldonado, who tagged out the sliding Upton. "That was a nice play," Milwaukee manager Ron Roenicke said. "Youve got a fast runner on third base. That play is really hard to defence. And the bunt wasnt that bad. He got over there in a hurry and made a nice flip over. Maldy did a great job of blocking the plate." Simmons followed with a drive to right-centre that was caught by a diving Aoki. "We almost had it," Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "We had the right guy on third base that could read it but (the bunt) could not get quite far enough down the first base line." Atlanta also had runners at first and second with two outs after Henderson walked Justin Upton and B.J. Upton in the ninth, but Uggla flied out to end the game. "A couple of times tonight we could have used that one hit," Uggla said. "We had a couple of opportunities here and there. We need to start taking advantage of those." NOTES: Milwaukee owns a seven-game home winning streak against the Braves. ... The Brewers improved to 3-28 when scoring three or fewer runs. ... Atlanta placed infielder Ramiro Pena on the 15-day disabled list (retroactive to June 17) due to a right shoulder strain and recalled infielder Paul Janish from Triple-A Gwinnett. ... With Aoki back from the paternity list, Milwaukee optioned Josh Prince back to Triple-A Nashville. ... Brewers RHP Donovan Hand will make his first major league start Saturday.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers needed to unwind after a so-so day at the office.Sure, the Packers quarterback was 31 of 42 for 294 yards. But a season-high four turnovers doomed Green Bay in a 30-16 loss on Sunday to the Dallas Cowboys, and Rodgers was responsible for two of them.It made for choppy night again for the Packers offense.I dont know if I agree with `broken. Its definitely not clean in some areas, coach Mike McCarthy said.The Packers planned for a long night of studying film before turning their attention right away on Monday to the Chicago Bears, their opponent on Thursday night.Have a glass of scotch and chill out a little bit, watch the film, Rodgers said about his plans for Sunday night. Im my biggest critic, and I look at this as finely as I look at every other game and improve.Drops were a problem at times for receivers. Timing seemed to be off during a couple other instances. Rodgers overthrew open receiver Randall Cobb in the back of the end zone early in the fourth quarter, and the Packers had to settle for one of Mason Crosbys three field goals.The turnovers especially hurt. The Packers had five fumbles, losing three.Rodgers fumbled on first-and-goal at the Cowboys 1 with 1:10 left in the third quarter. It was a designed draw play out of an empty backfield.Jordy Nelson fumbled after a hard hit from safety Barry Church as soon as the Packers receiver came down with an 18-yard pass over the middle in the first quarter. The Cowboys recovered at the Packers 36.Were down, Nelson said. Offensively, we didnt play the way we need to. We made some plays, didnt make enough, didnt take care of the ball, and thats not us.dddddddddddd.Fans at Lambeau Field booed at times . Even Rodgers, the two-time NFL MVP, wasnt immune from the jeering.Look, were upset, theyre upset, its part of it, Rodgers said of the booing. Its not the first time. Probably wont be the last time.The Packers didnt get into the end zone until Rodgers and Cobb connected on a 6-yard touchdown pass with 6:53 left to get within 27-16.There are some positives on which to build.Rodgers was sacked just once. Eddie Lacy ran for 65 yards on 17 carries in spite of a sprained left ankle. Second-year receiver Ty Montgomery proved to be the Packers best receiver with 98 yards on 10 catches, with a team-high 12 targets.With backup running back James Starks out with a knee injury, Montgomery ended up taking three carries in the backfield, too, for 6 yards.I felt my movement was good tonight, Rodgers said. I felt the line blocked really well. Weve got to do a better job of hitting the ones were used to hitting.The output just doesnt match the high bar that the Packers have set in recent years.To keep comparing it to the past is a benefit to us because we know what it looks like. We have people that were here in the past that were a part of that, McCarthy said. But at the end of the day, we obviously have work to do, and that will be our approach.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAP ' ' '
