Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - Aramis Ramirez hit a three-run triple, Jonathan Lucroy hit a two-run single and the Brewers handled the Reds, 8-3, on Tuesday.

Yovani Gallardo (2-3) earned the win, allowing two runs on four hits over six innings. He walked two, struck out eight and added an RBI single.

Cesar Izturis hit a solo homer for Milwaukee, which halted a three-game skid.

Homer Bailey (1-3) lasted just 3 2/3 innings and gave up six runs on six hits in the loss. Jay Bruce hit a two-run homer for the Reds, who had won two straight, including the opener of this three-game series on Monday.

Scott Rolen added an RBI double for Cincinnati. It was the 506th two-bagger of his career, which ties him with Babe Ruth for 48th on the all-time list.
