Brewers RHP Zach Davies loses no-hit bid in 7th inning

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Zach Davies had his no-hit bid ended by a two-run homer from Oakland's Billy Butler with two outs in the seventh inning.

Butler turned on an 0-1 fastball and drove it out to left-center two batters after Jed Lowrie reached on the Athletics' third walk off Davies.

Ramon Flores dove to his knees to catch a flare in short center by Billy Burns to lead off the seventh, temporarily extending Davies' no-hit bid.

Davies, a right-hander, threw 59 of his 102 pitches for strikes. He struck out five before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the bottom of the seventh.

Davies finished the night having allowed two hits.

The Brewers lead 5-2.
