April 2008 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche

11th April 2008

After the first five games our starter are 0-3 with an 6.43 ERA and our new 20.650.000 Dollar man Soichi Fujita is 0-2 an 27.03 ERA. Maybe those fans who questioned this blockboster free agent signing were right? Maybe we should have outraised the Cubs $ 108,470,000 7 year contract for ace Carlos Zambrano? Why is our offensive virtually dead with runners in scoring position?

Game #6 – San Diego [5-0] (J. Peavy 1-0, 0.00 ERA) at Milwaukee [0-5] (B. Sheets 0-1, 4.26 ERA)

Peavy allowed 2 hits and 1 walk in his season debut. If he continues like that we will be 0-6 after our first home series.

SS C. Izturis - CF S. Victorino - LF R. Braun - 1B P. Fielder - 2B R. Weeks - RF G. Gross - 3B B. Hall - C J. Estrada

The game was open - even if we never had the lead - until C Estrada threw the ball into the outfield with the double steal on in the 6th. Instead of having two outs and a runner on second. We collected a run and had one runner on third with one out. With the top of the lineup hitting well today, we threatened twice in the 7th and 8th. But the Padres hold on their lead and moved to 6-0. On a positive note Dessens and Fujita combined for three scoreless innings.

San Diego at Milwaukee: 6-4

W: J. Peavy (2-0), L: B. Sheets (0-2)
H: T. Mastny (3)
S: C. Meredith (3)
HR - n/a
MoM: C. Izturis - 4/5, 1 R (hard to bat leadoff for the 2008 Brewers)

Elsewhere:

The New York Mets were dealt a blow when they learned that their ace Mike Pelfrey (2-0, 2.03 ERA) will miss the rest of the season after he suffered a torn becep muscle.
Minnesota's Francisco Liriano threw a 3-hitter against the Boston Red Sox blanking them 9-0.
The Padres are the only team at 6-0 after two series.
