July 2008 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche
9th July 2008
During the Astros series we also a great first game and began then slumping in the second one. Hopefully David Bush can lead the team to another good performance and claim his 10th win of the season.
Game #86 – Cincinnati Reds [35-50] (L. Hochevar 5-9, 4.03 ERA) at Milwaukee [45-40] (D. Bush 9-5, 2.68 ERA)
SS C. Izturis - CF S. Victorino - LF R. Braun - 1B P. Fielder - 3B M Reynolds - RF G. Gross - C J. Estrada - 2B O. Infante
The Reds started hot and Bush was almost out of the game after four innings. But their bats cooled off quickly and three errors gave us a way back into the game. Once again it was Ryan Braun with a key 2-RBI single to tie the game in the fifth. From then on we were more or less in control and Bush went eight innings to earn his 10th victory.
Cincinnati at Milwaukee: 4-7
W: D. Bush (10-5), L: L. Hochevar (5-10)
S: S. Fujita (10)
HR: /
SB: - / A. Escobar (10)
