CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Lyle Overbay walked into the clubhouse and pointed toward pitcher Wily Peraltas locker. "Hes over there," the first baseman said. "You dont need to talk to anybody else." Indeed, Peralta did it all as the majors top team won again. Peralta doubled home two runs -- the first RBIs of his career -- and repeatedly escaped trouble during his eight innings on Friday night, leading the Milwaukee Brewers to a 2-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. "When youre able to pitch like that and youre able to swing the bat, sometimes thats what you need," Peralta said. The NL Central leaders improved the best record in the majors to 21-9 and opened a 7 1/2-game lead over Cincinnati. The Brewers are 12-3 on the road. Peralta (4-1) made his fifth quality start of the season, holding the Reds to three hits and a pair of walks while throwing 110 pitches. Francisco Rodriguez retired the three batters he faced for his 14th save in as many chances. Peralta doubled with two outs in the fifth off Mike Leake (2-3), who left his first pitch over the plate. Leake gave up seven hits and fanned five as he went eight innings for the second time this season. "Today, he was their hero," Reds catcher Brayan Pena said. "He pitched good and got the double." Right fielder Ryan Braun missed his sixth game with a sore muscle on his right side. The Brewers will decide this weekend whether hes close to returning or needs time on the disabled list. Peralta put the Brewers ahead with his 10th career hit. Overbay opened the fifth with a single and Caleb Gindl walked with one out. Jean Segura forced Gindl at second, bringing up Peralta, who had struck out in his first at-bat. He doubled to right field on the first pitch. Peralta is 10 for 72 in his career with 30 strikeouts. "He was throwing the ball well," Peralta said. "I just went up there and guessed hed throw me a fastball right down the middle, and I put a pretty good swing on it." Peralta made it stand up by escaping scoring threats in the first, fourth, fifth and sixth innings. He fanned Jay Bruce three times with runners in scoring position. Bruce also struck out in the ninth. "He had a great fastball," manager Ron Roenicke said. "His slider was outstanding. He threw a couple of changeups, not many. And his swing ... he had a great swing and we certainly needed it." Reds leadoff hitter Billy Hamilton was out of the lineup with a sore left hand, which he sprained while making a diving catch during Cincinnatis 8-3 win in the series opener Thursday night. He was available to pinch-run. Joey Votto, robbed at the top of the wall by centre fielder Carlos Gomez on Thursday night, hit a flyball that deflected off the top of the wall in left field and bounced back into play in the fourth inning. Votto wound up with a double, and the call was upheld upon review. Votto was stranded at second. "I thought it was gone," Peralta said. "Its hard for me to tell from the mound, but I thought it was a home run." The Reds put runners on second and third with two outs in the fifth when Ramon Santiago drew a walk and Segura threw wildly to first on Leakes grounder to shortstop. Peralta retired Chris Heisey on a grounder to end the inning. NOTES: Yovani Gallardo (2-0) faces Johnny Cueto (2-2) in the third game of the series.

I think its because its difficult to keep your foot on the pedal for 60 minutes and just keep going and keep going. But its something that hopefully before game 82 is done that we learn how to do.Were going to have to play 60 solid minutes if we make the playoffs.Getzlaf agreed that his team needs to work on putting teams away.If you want to be an elite team in this league you have to learn to just do it, he said. Regardless of what the situation is, we just have to do what we do and continue on. Were learning things, learning steps and hopefully our group can learn things from our last two games.Tyler Pitlick and Jeff Petry replied for the Oilers (7-18-5), who have lost three in a row and 14 of their last 15 games.The Oilers are 1-15-4 against Western Conference opponents this season.They are the best team in the league and for the most part I felt we played with them, said Oilers forward Taylor Hall. At the start of the second we gave them two Grade A chances. I feel like I have said this eight times this year, but it was just a couple of shifts that killed us. It was tough to get those goals back.Edmonton head coach Dallas Eakins said he cant figure out his teams tendency to have sluggish starts to games.I wish I had a solution for it, he said. Its something that we talk about, our leaders talk about. In the first period I thought we looked tired. It was our fourth game in six nights. Im not using that as an excuse though. You have to play the game, have to manage the game.Anaheim started the scoring five minutes into the first period as Vatanen walked in from the point on the power play and sent a wrist shot cleanly past Oilers starting goalie Viktor Fasth.The Ducks came close to taking a two-goal lead 10 minutes later as Andrew Cogliano had Fasth beat, but his shot rang off the post.Anaheim had 10 first-period shots, while the Oilers could only muster three on Ducks starter Frederik Andersen.The Ducks very quickly went ahead 3-0 with goals just 44 seconnds apart to start the second period.ddddddddddddOff the opening face-off of the middle frame, Vatanen sent Palmieri in alone through a confused-looking Oilers defence and he made the most of the breakaway just seven seconds in.Palmieri said it was a set play that his team has been working on.Weve been waiting to try it for a couple of games and lucky enough, (Ryan Kesler) won the face-off clean and Sami made a great pass and I was in all alone, he said. A lot of things have to happen in order for that play to work. Weve tried it a couple of times before and something always seems to go wrong.Then, 51 seconds into the second period, Rene Bourque dropped a pass to an uncovered Getzlaf, who cleanly beat Fasth with a quick shot.They were mistakes that we shouldnt be making, a breakaway and a bad change and a three-on-two, said Oilers forward David Perron. It is very frustrating, for sure.Ben Scrivens came in to replace a visibly upset Fasth, who allowed three goals on 12 shots. Fasth threw his mask and then appeared to be calling out his teammates when he got to the bench.Basically I said Youve got to wake up, Fasth said.The Oilers finally got on the board with just under five minutes to play in the second as Pitlick gained the zone and beat Andersen with a stick-side shot from near the face-off dot for his first goal of the season.Getzlaf looked to have scored his second of the night five minutes into the third, but the puck stayed on the goal-line before Scrivens was able to swat it to safety.Edmonton made it 3-2 with a rare power-play goal with 7:20 remaining in the third period as a Petry point shot deflected off the stick of defender Devante Smith-Pelly and past Andersen.The Ducks sealed the victory with a late empty-net goal from Thompson.Notes: It was the second of four games between the two teams this season, coming off the heels of the Ducks 2-1 victory over Edmonton on Wednesday in Anaheim. The Oilers won both of their home games against the Ducks last season. … In their first 29 games, the Oilers scored a Western Conference-low 63 goals. Only the Carolina Hurricanes (60), Florida Panthers (58) and Buffalo Sabres (52) had scored fewer. … Ducks defenceman Ben Lovejoy made his return to the lineup after missing 21 games with a broken finger that occurred on Oct. 26 against San Jose. … Earlier in the day, the Oilers transferred winger Jesse Joensuu to SC Bern of the Swiss Elite League. … Out injured for Anaheim were Corey Perry (knee), Francois Beauchemin (finger), Eric Brewer (foot), John Gibson (groin) and Dany Heatley (groin). … Missing from the Oilers lineup were Benoit Pouliot (foot), Boyd Gordon (back) and Nikita Nikitin (back).
