MIAMI -- Even minus Ryan Braun, the Milwaukee Brewers lineup hardly skipped a beat. Nike Air Vapormax Discount . Jonathan Lucroy had four hits, Yovani Gallardo threw eight scoreless innings and Milwaukee beat the Miami Marlins 6-1 Monday night for its fourth consecutive victory. Carlos Gomez had three hits and two RBIs for Milwaukee, while Lucroy also drove in a pair of runs. Rickie Weeks homered among his three hits for the Brewers, who tied a season high with 16 hits despite playing without Braun after he aggravated his sore right thumb Sunday against Philadelphia. "Anytime you have one of your big boys out and you can score and do what we did and get that many hits, its big," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. Gallardo (5-6) won for the second time since April 29 and became the third Brewers pitcher to strike out 1,000 batters, joining Ben Sheets and Teddy Higuera. "Getting 1,000 strikeouts, its a big number," Gallardo said. "Its definitely a lot of work. Its a lot of pitches thrown. Its one of the goals and hopefully keep moving forward to get to the next one." The right-hander allowed four hits and one walk while striking out four on 108 pitches before turning it over to Donovan Hand in the ninth. "Anytime you go eight innings its definitely a good day," Gallardo said. The Marlins scored on a groundout to avoid the shutout, but have managed no more than one run in 21 of their 63 games. Miamis record is a major league-worst 18-45. "We didnt do anything with (Gallardo)," manager Mike Redmond said. "Give him credit. He pitched well." Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton went 1 for 4 in his first game since April 29 after missing 36 due to a right hamstring injury. "It was miserable not being able to play so I was happy I was out there," Stanton said. Ricky Nolasco (3-7) allowed a season-high 10 hits and four runs in 5 1-3 innings. Nolasco is 2-3 with a 7.58 ERA in eight starts against Milwaukee. "All night was tough," Nolasco said. "Its one of those games you want to go as deep as you can and not kill the pen." The Brewers got to Nolasco early, scoring two runs in the first inning on RBI singles by Gomez and Lucroy. Gomez added another RBI single in the second for a 3-0 lead. "Its easier when you get runs early in the game, especially in the first inning," Gomez said. "Everybody has a good feeling the rest of the game to continue the good job." Weeks fifth home run, a solo shot in the third, stretched it to 4-0. Weeks is 9 for 20 in his last seven games to raise his batting average over .200 for the first time since April 16. "Thats a huge pickup for what we need there and hopefully this continues," Roenicke said. Gomez tripled leading off the seventh and scored on a single by Lucroy. Juan Francisco added a sacrifice fly to make it 6-0. Juan Pierre tripled in the ninth off Hand and scored on a groundout by Ed Lucas. NOTES: Braun did not take part in batting practice and could miss the series. "Its possible," he said. ... Brewers RF Norichika Aoki extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a double leading off the game. He is batting .341 (15 for 44) during the streak. ...

The Hammers winger scored for the third consecutive game as West Ham came from two goals down to beat Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday.Since breaking into the starting eleven in December, Antonio has found the net seven times in all competitions and speaking to Sky Sports, he discussed a number of topics, including a potential England call-up, West Hams top-four ambitions and whether hed prefer Champions League qualification or an FA Cup trophy. Antonio found the net for the third straight game against Everton An FA Cup trophy or a top-four finish...Id take an FA Cup win all day. Top four is amazing but its one of those things where youre part of history if you win the FA Cup. Its a massive competition.You will always be remembered, and you dont really get remembered for finishing fourth. Slaven Bilic is looking to keep his West Ham players grounded On West Hams campaign...Slaven [Bilic] is saying its a great season so far. Its such a tight-knit changing room and he doesnt want to put any pressure on us.He tells us to concentrate on each game, because theres been a couple of times where we didnt start well. We just need to perform and see what happens at the end of the season because its been so unpredictable so far. Antonio has seven goals in all competitions since December When we beat Tottenham [on Wednesday] we went a point off the Champions League qualification places, but as soon as someone said it, someone else said, Dont talk about it because its going to distract you. Im quite superstitious so I dont want to ruin it.On his unique goal celebrations...I was sat in my hotel room one day and I was thinking my goal celebrations were boring. I was just sticking my arms out and running, and I wanted to mix things up and have a bit of banter with the fans.If I do a different celebration every game, at the end of the season Ill do a poll and see which is best. When I did the Homer Simpson one against Sunderland, Cress [Aaron Cresswell] was like, What are you doing?! Michail Antonio imitated Homer Simpson with his celebration against Sunderland Ive got some ideas up next but I dont want to ruin it for everyone. I let the worm out, but now Im thinking, Do I do the worm or not because Ive said it?Ive got my next two planned, though, and after that Ill take some suggestions from fans because Im going to run out of ideas.On playing non-league football with Tooting & Mitcham...I always had belief in myy ability and I always thought I could be a professional footballer. Womens Nike Air Vapormax. I got to 17, and I still thought I was going to make it.When I jumped to League One with Cheltenham, at first I found it difficult but as I got comfortable, I felt I could take the next step. Then I was in and out of the Reading team and signed for Sheffield Wednesday, and since then Ive not looked back. Antonio spent time on loan at Sheffield Wednesday in 2012 before joining them permanently Ian Wright was my idol growing up, and I looked at him and said, Why cant I do that?.Theres lots of players in non-league football that have quality, and I believe its about luck. I dont feel enough scouts go down there to watch and you need to be in the right place at the right time to get spotted.On nearly joining Tottenham...When I was 14, I was playing for my school team and one of my teachers also coached at the time at Spurs. Antonio could have been playing under Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham He mentioned it and a scout came to a game and was looking to sign me and my friend. He signed for them although he didnt manage to make the academy, but my mum wanted me to concentrate on my education.I was commuting from south-west London at the time and I would be getting back quite late. I was crying [at the decision], Im not going to lie, and I was saying, Youve ruined my life mum!But I managed to do my schoolwork and went to college so I feel Ive done it the right way.On playing with Dimitri Payet... Antonio describes Dimitri Payet as a revelation Hes been a revelation to play with. Hes got the feet, the vision, hes got everything. Hes not just a flair player, though, hes got grit as well. He fights and he puts in a slide tackle, and for me hes the player of the season.On Riyad Mahrez... Riyad Mahrez scored his 15th goal of the season against Watford on Saturday Night Football He is quality, and this season hes been a joke at times. Me and some of the boys in the dressing room were talking about him recently because in the Championship he didnt play much.It was Anthony Knockaert who was the main man when they got promoted. But hes come to the Premier League and hes tearing it to pieces.On an England call-up...It would be a dream come true to play for England. Im a massive England fan so Id love to get the chance.
