CINCINNATI, Ohio -- For the first time, the Brewers learned what its like to keep an opponent from crossing home plate. Pretty nice feeling, actually. Juan Francisco drove in three runs with a sacrifice fly and homer in a ballpark where hes had some big moments, and Yovani Gallardo pitched six innings on Saturday, leading Milwaukee to a 6-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. It was the Brewers first shutout -- they were the only team in the majors without one. Milwaukees staff came into the game with the NLs worst earned run average, giving up more runs and homers than any other club. "Theyve gotten us pretty good in this park this year," manager Ron Roenicke said. "6-0 -- we dont have too many of those. Its nice to kind of be able to relax." The Brewers have lost 11 of their last 14 games at Great American Ball Park. It was the first time theyd shut out Cincinnati since 2009. Logan Schafer had three hits off Homer Bailey (4-5), his second straight three-hit game. Schafer is filling in for Ryan Braun, who went on the 15-day disabled list with an injured right thumb after the series opener Friday. Schafer has filled in for Braun the last five games and gone 8-for-16 with the first back-to-back multi-hit games of his career. "Its nice to play every day and get that comfort level," Schafer said. "I felt good all day. One thing Ive been doing a little better lately is swing at strikes and not going out of the strike zone." Gallardo (6-6) gave up three hits and a pair of walks in his second straight impressive start. The right-hander threw eight shutout innings, allowing only four hits, during a 6-1 win at Miami on Monday. "I feel good -- the past three starts, actually," Gallardo said. "It seems like things are finally falling together. Ive been able to find a rhythm." Three relievers completed a seven-hitter for Milwaukees first shutout. The Reds didnt get a runner to third base and were out of sync after playing extra-inning games the last two days. "None of us looked like we had any rhythm," said manager Dusty Baker on his 64th birthday. "It was one of those low-energy days that usually dont happen. It just wasnt our day. "Thats not the way you want to spend your birthday. If Id known that was going to happen, I wouldve tried to get kicked out in the first inning." After going 6-22 in May, the injury-depleted Brewers are 8-6 in June, winning six of their last eight games. For the second time this season, the Reds couldnt overcome a homer by Francisco, who played for them from 2009-11. He hit the second-longest homer in ballpark history during his final season in Cincinnati, a 502-foot shot. He returned with the Braves this season and had a breakthrough -- his first career grand slam off reliever J.J. Hoover during a 7-2 win on May 8. The Brewers got him for a minor league pitcher on June 3, and hed struggled until getting back to Cincinnati. Francisco was in an 0-for-15 slump when he had a pinch-hit single in Cincinnatis 4-3, 10-inning win on Friday night. He hit a sacrifice fly and two-run homer that smacked off the bottom of the left-field foul pole on Saturday, giving the Brewers a 4-0 lead. It was only his third hit in 25 at-bats as a Brewer. With that, Francisco has one of the longest and one of the shortest homers at Great American. "Hes got big power everywhere and it was nice for him to get that," Roenicke said. Bailey gave up eight hits in seven innings and threw a wild pitch that let in a run, leaving him 1-6 career against Milwaukee. Schafer, taking over in left field for Braun, had three hits for the second straight game. His two-run double in the sixth made it 6-0. NOTES: The Brewers called up OF Caleb Gindl from Triple-A Nashville to replace Braun. He pinch-hit and struck out. Gindl is the sixth Brewer to make his big league debut this season. ... The Reds put RH reliever Jonathan Broxton on the 15-day DL, a day after swelling was detected in his right elbow. RH Pedro Villarreal was called up. ... Gallardo picked Joey Votto off first base in the first inning. ... The Brewers expect LH Chris Narveson, on the DL with a sprained finger, to return next week. ... The Reds plan to activate RH Johnny Cueto off the 15-day DL to start the series finale on Sunday against Milwaukees Wily Peralta.
