Blake Perkins hit a walk-off RBI single in the ninth inning and the Milwaukee Brewers avoided a three-game series sweep with a 3-2 win over the visiting Miami Marlins on Sunday.
Eric Haase singled with one out in the ninth and Brice Turang followed with a double before Cade Gibson (2-5) intentionally walked Jackson Chourio to load the bases.
Perkins delivered with his second career walk-off hit, depositing Gibson's 3-2 offering into deep center field for the game-winning single.
Perkins' hit capped a late-inning comeback for Milwaukee, which trailed 2-1 with two outs in the eighth inning before tying the game on Andrew Vaughn's RBI ground-rule double.
Trevor Megill (3-2) pitched a scoreless ninth inning for the Brewers, who snapped the Marlins' four-game winning streak.
Miami took a 1-0 lead in the first inning against Brandon Woodruff when Xavier Edwards doubled to begin the game, moved to third on a groundout and scored on Kyle Stowers' single.
The Brewers pulled even in the third inning against Eury Perez when Chourio doubled in a run to extend his hitting streak to 20 games.
Perez allowed one run on two hits over five innings. He walked two and struck out six.
Heriberto Hernandez broke the tie with a solo homer in the fourth inning. The 354-foot shot was his fifth homer of the season.
Woodruff gave up two runs on four hits with three walks and six strikeouts over six innings.
Milwaukee put two runners on with one out in the sixth, but Valente Bellozo escaped the jam when Caleb Durbin grounded into a double play.
Anthony Bender retired the Brewers in order in the seventh inning before Ronny Henriquez took over in the eighth.
With a runner on second and two outs, Vaughn tied the game with a ground-rule double to center. Vaughn has 14 RBIs in his first 13 games with the Brewers.
