Hours before the Milwaukee Brewers walked off with a sweep<\/a> of the Los Angeles Dodgers, the teams completed a trade … with each other.<\/p>\n

Early in Wednesday’s series finale, the Dodgers announced<\/a> they have traded outfielder Steward Berroa to the Brewers for cash considerations.<\/p>\n

Berroa was recently designated for assignment by the Dodgers, who acquired him from the Toronto Blue Jays back in May. While the 26-year-old Berroa made his MLB debut with the Blue Jays last season, he didn’t play in the majors during his stint with the Dodgers organization.<\/p>\n

The Dominican Republic native played in 27 games for Triple-A Oklahoma City, slashing .330\/.424\/.433 with 7 doubles, 1 home run, 11 RBI and 11 stolen bases but also 22 strikeouts.<\/p>\n

Before that, he appeared in 24 games for Triple-A Buffalo. There, he hit just .195 with a .501 OPS.<\/p>\n

In 28 games, and 45 plate appearances, with the Blue Jays last season, Berroa struggled, posting a .189 average with 1 double, 1 home run and 6 stolen bases.<\/p>\n

The Brewers DFA’ed righty Elvin Rodr\u00edguez to make room for Berroa in Triple-A, where Rodr\u00edguez was previously pitching.<\/p>\n

The timing of the announcement of the minor trade between the Dodgers and Brewers was humorous, and the transaction made its rounds on social media as a pitching duel commenced.<\/p>\n

Making his first Dodgers appearance since April 27, Tyler Glasnow returned to Los Angeles’ starting rotation. He didn’t allow an earned run in the five innings he pitched.<\/p>\n

That said, he did walk three batters, including one in the fifth that ultimately scored after a balk, stolen base and throwing error from Dodgers All-Star catcher Will Smith.<\/p>\n

But Los Angeles took a 2-1 lead into the ninth inning.<\/p>\n

It was then, however, that Milwaukee plated a game-tying run, thanks to a clutch single from pinch-hitting first baseman Andrew Vaughn, who’s now logged at least one RBI in each of his first three games with the Brewers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the bottom of the 10th inning, Milwaukee center fielder Jackson Chourio authored his first-career walk-off, driving home automatic runner Sal Frelick with a hard-hit single to left field.<\/p>\n

At that point, the clubs’ mid-game trade was an afterthought, as the defending World Series champion Dodgers saw their losing streak extend to six games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hours before the Milwaukee Brewers walked off with a sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers, the teams completed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":164500,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2406],"tags":[1749,5,39,5829,3875,1165,4332,4333,774,57,3224,4331,59,4,312,5902,32,9281,70,786,1535],"class_list":{"0":"post-164499","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-dodgers","8":"tag-andrew-vaughn","9":"tag-baseball","10":"tag-dodgers","11":"tag-elvin-rodriguez","12":"tag-jackson-chourio","13":"tag-la","14":"tag-la-dodgers","15":"tag-ladodgers","16":"tag-los-angeles","17":"tag-los-angeles-dodgers","18":"tag-losangeles","19":"tag-losangelesdodgers","20":"tag-milwaukee-brewers","21":"tag-mlb","22":"tag-sal-frelick","23":"tag-steward-berroa","24":"tag-stolen-bases","25":"tag-the-brewers","26":"tag-toronto-blue-jays","27":"tag-tyler-glasnow","28":"tag-will-smith"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/114826099136268119","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=164499"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164499\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/164500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=164499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=164499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
