Brandon Woodruff fanned seven hitters and held San Diego scoreless through five innings to lead the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-2 win Friday afternoon.

Woodruff, who picked up his first win, has yet to allow a single run in nine innings (three outings) this spring.

Milwaukee improved to 11-10 in Cactus League play after the victory.

The Brewers jumped on the Padres early, bringing three runs across in the first frame via a Mike Moustakas RBI single and Eric Thames two-run double.

Lucas Erceg brought in a run in the fourth on a fielder’s choice, and Hernan Perez and Tyler Saladino came around to score off Cory Spangenberg’s two-RBI single later that inning.

Outfielder Ryan Braun tallied two hits, a single in the first inning and another in the third.

Reliever Josh Tomlin allowed two runs over the final four frames but picked up his first save of spring training.
