Game of the Day
The big game to watch today pits Brandon Webb and his 42 inning scoreless streak against the Milwaukee Brewers and their resurgent offense. During the five full games of the streak (accounting for 41 innings), opponents have hit just .160 against Brandon. And even when they make contact, they're not doing much as their batting average when not striking out is just .211. He'll face a team that is pounding the ball in Arizona. The Brewers picked up eighteen hits in their first two games, eleven of them going for extra bases. After a stretch of ten games in which they only exceeded four runs twice, the Brewers have scored 30 run in their last four contests. We'll see tonight if good pitching stops good hitting.
Enjoy!
