August 2008 - Milwaukee Brewers
Manager and GM Fritsche
15th August 2008
The series finale could show where the remainder of the season will head. In case the Cubs lose they are three games behind us.
Game #120 –Milwaukee [66-53] (C. Villaneuva 3-3, 3.72 ERA)at Chicago [64-55] (M. Prior 9-10, 4.93 ERA)
SS A. Escobar - CF J. Upton - LF R. Braun - 1B P. Fielder - C J. Estrada - RF G. Gross - 3B M. Gamel - 2B O. Infante
A strange ballgame where both teams showed determination not to lose. The decisive factor was once again power and (bad) defence. While Wrigley's walls were far away for us, the Cubs had three homers that were longer than 450 feet.
Milwaukee at Chicago: 8-9
W: H. Kuo (4-2), L: M. Stetter (0-1)
H: C. Pignatiello (4)
BS: E. Dessens (2) / R. Dempster (4)
HR: - / S. Moore (19), A. Ramirez (23), B. Dopirak (2)
SB: R. Braun (19), P. Fielder (22), A. Escobar (17), J. Upton (12) / R. Cedeno (8)
CS: P. Fielder (5) / -
E: A. Escobar (4), J. Upton (5) / A. Ramirez (10)
MoM: A. Ramirez - 4/5, 2 R, HR, 3 RBI; error

The Cardinals 3B Scott Rolen (.331, 22 HR, 80 RBI) collected his 300th career home run in a 8-3 loss to the Braves.
