Astros vs Brewers Game 2, August 19th

Tuesday the Brewers looked to make it 2 in a row with Ben Sheets making the start against Brian Moehler of the Astros. The Brewers were doing well early scoring a run each of the first 2 innings. However, they would not score again. Sheets would give up 5 earned runs in only 6 innings of work. Sheets continues to struggle for the Brewers. If the Brewers make it to the playoffs, and hope to go deep into October, they are going to need solid work out of the aces. Sheets needs relax and find his zone again. The Astros have a very strong lineup, but still not as good as the Cubs. I think Sheets will be able to lock it in and give the Brewers a chance to do something great this post season.

Most Valuable Brewer: Jason Kendall, he went 3-4 and was the only real highlight for the Brewers in this one.
