The B-52 Bomber, CC Sabathia took the hill for the Brewers on Wednesday to try and stretch the Brewers win streak to 8. CC pitched very well early, but the Padres seemed to be able to put a bat on the ball no matter what he threw. Prince continues to see the ball well, as we all saw a ball leave his bat and get out of the park in a hurry in the 2nd inning. The Brewers added 2 more runs in the second to take a 3-0 lead. Sabathia continued to pitch well, but gave up a run in the bottom of the 4th to make it a 3-1 game. The Crew got those runs back when Corey Hart hit a bases loaded triple, he would then score on a Craig Counsell sacrifice fly. That was more than enough runs for CC Sabathia. Sabathia found himself in a no outs bases loaded jam, but worked out of it without giving up a run. CC would go 7 strong innings giving up only the 1 run and striking out 8 batters. Riske and Mota each pitched a hittless inning, and the Crew came away with a 7-1 win. The Brewers stretch their winning streak to 8 games and send Sheets to the mound on Thursday to go for 9 in a row and the series sweep.
Most Valuable Brewer: Corey Hart, he went 3-5 with 3 RBI's and a run scored. Corey's average is starting to climb once again, he is now hitting .289. i would love to see that up around .305 by the time September comes around.
