Twins’ Berrios, bullpen team up on one-hitter

José Berríos and three relievers combined on a one-hitter with 17 strikeouts, and the Minnesota Twins beat Corbin Burnes and the visiting Milwaukee Brewers 2-0 on Saturday.

The Twins held the Brewers hitless until Omar Narváez delivered a one-out single to right off Tyler Duffey in the eighth. Neither team had a hit or walk until Minnesota’s Byron Buxton led off the seventh with a homer off Burnes.

Buxton’s homer came on the 87th and final pitch from Burnes, who recorded 11 strikeouts. Berríos struck out 12, hit a batter and didn’t walk anybody in six innings but left after throwing 84 pitches. PADRES 7, DIAMONDBACKS 0 >> Joe Musgrove was brilliant in his debut for his hometown team, Manny Machado homered for his first hit of 2021 and Wil Myers drove in three runs on two doubles as San Diego beat Arizona to open the season 3-0.

With his parents and other family members in the stands, Musgrove held the Diamondbacks to three hits in six innings, striking out eight and walking none. After allowing a one-out single in the first, he retired 11 straight, seven by strikeout. PHILLIES 4, BRAVES 0 >> Philadelphia’s Zack Wheeler allowed one hit and struck out 10 in seven innings while going 2 for 3 with two RBIS.

Wheeler retired the final 17 Atlanta hitters he faced after a one-out single to Travis d’arnaud in the second inning. REDS 9, CARDINALS 6 >> Tucker Barnhart homered to spark a six-run Cincinnati third inning.

St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright retired his first six batters in order before running into trouble in the third, when he walked Tyler Naquin before allowing Barnhart’s blast.

The Reds followed with six singles in the inning and forced Wainwright’s early exit after Naquin’s two-out, two-run single put them up 6-1.
