Well the Dale Sveum era has officially started and in Milwaukee. Dale started off things withe shaking up the lineup, and I have to say that i like the lineup he put together:
Mike Cameron
Ray Durham
Ryan Braun
Prince Fielder
JJ Hardy
Corey Hart
Craig Counsell
Jason Kendall
CC Sabathia
Unfortunately the new lineup did not lead to many runs in Chicago. CC Sabathia would get his first loss of the season giving up 4 runs in 7 innings of work. Fielder provided most of the offense for the Brewers. He hit a monster 2 run homer in the 6th, and added a solo shot to lead off the 8th. Prince's biggest at bat came with runners on 1st and 3rd with 2 outs in the 9th with the Brewers down 5-4. He worked the count full, but struck out looking on a 3-2 slider by Kerry Wood that was right down the middle. In Prince's defense is was a good pitch, and the first breaking ball that Wood through that was halfway decent. The Brewers fell to the Cubs 5-4.
Most Valuable Brewer: Dale Sveum for making his big league managerial debut. Let's get some wins now buddy.
