Brewers vs Pirates Game 1, August 29th

Friday night the Brewers traveled to Pittsburgh for a weekend series with the Pirates. The action started right away as Ryan Braun hit a 3 run home run in the first inning to give the Crew a 3-0 lead. Unfortunately, this was about it for action in this game. Dave Bush was on the mound for the Brewers and he had a very solid outing. Dave's only mistake in the games was a 5th inning solo home run to Nate McLouth. Bush pitched 6 2/3 innings and gave up only 6 hits and one run. The Brewers would not scored again, but cruised to a 3-1 win, and Salomon Torres picked up his 26th save of the year.

Most Valuable Brewer: Ryan Braun who went 2-4 with 3 RBI's. Braun now has 34 home runs and 95 RBI's on the season.
