July 2008 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche

21st July 2008

The Giants are doing rather well without Barry Bonds so far, but if they want to compete for a playoff spot in one of the strongest divisions they must start a winning streak soon. Hopefully for us after this series. Barry Zito spent most of the season in the bullpen, but is now back in the starting rotation. The Giants biggest problem is getting base hits; five or their starters have an average below .250.

Game #97 – Milwaukee [52-44] (C. Capuano 10-3, 3.47 ERA) at San Francisco [46-50] (B. Zito 2-3, 3.67 ERA)

SS A. Escobar- CF S. Victorino - LF R. Braun - 1B P. Fielder - 2B M. Reynolds - RF G. Gross - C. H. Blanco - 2B O. Infante

19 mph out to left meant perfect weather for a homerunderby. Capuano looked like an early winner when Fielder and Gross went deep, but the Giants came closer after a Gomes homer in the fourth. In the sixth it was Braun who added three more with a long shot, but Gomes did the same in the bottom of the inning. Gabe Gross' grand slam in the eighth finally ended the Giants resistance.

Milwaukee at San Francisco: 12-6

W: C. Capuano (11-3), L: B. Zito (2-4)
HR: R. Braun (30), P. Fielder (12), G. Gross 2 (10) / J. Gomes 2 (21), R. Durham (13)
SB: S. Victorino (19) / -
CS: - / -
E: C. Capuano (2)
MoM: G. Gross - 2/4, 2 R, 2 HR, 5 RBI, BB

Elsewhere:

3B Miguel Cabrera (.320, 30 HR, 69 RBI) hit three homers for the Marlins in a 6-5 victory against the Blizzards.

The Angels 3B Brandon Wood (.259, 20 HR, 62 RBI) hit for the cycle in 7-2 victory over the Royals.
