April 2008 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche

30th April 2008

With a win today we finish April at .500. Wouldn't be bad. Today we won't rest a starter. Izturis would need some rest, but we only have one game left until the off day. Rivas is such a disappointment as utility man. I already regret we let Graffanino go. Guess we will analyze AAA Nashville a bit to see if we might have someone better there.

Game #24 –
Milwaukee [11-12] (D. Bush 2-2, 4.10 ERA) at Colorado [10-13] (J. Morillo 3-0, 3.55 ERA)

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 a pitchers duel until Gabe Gross hit a 2 run homer in the top of the sixth. The Rockies took though advantage of a Weeks error and a 2 run shot by Abreu to make it 4-3. But an exhausted Colorado bullpen couldn't keep the game close and allowed us to score five run in the eighth.

Milwaukee at Colorado: 8-3

W: D. Bush (3-2), L: J. Morillo (3-1)
HR - J. Estrada (2), G. Gross (3) / B. Abreu (6)
MoM: J. Estrada - 2/4, 2 R, HR, 3 RBI

Elsewhere:

The Cardinals CF Carlos Beltran (.295, 6 HR, 19 RBI) is out for three weeks with a fractured hand.
