Pirates at Brewers 5-5-07, 6:05pm

Image vs Image

Promotions: Spring Madness ($24 and under tickets half price; $1 hot dogs and sodas).

TV: FSN Wisconsin
Radio: 620 WTMJ

Image
Jeff Suppan; 4-2, 2.55 ERA

Image
Zach Duke; 1-2, 6.06 ERA

Pirates Probable Lineup:
CF Chris Duffy
SS Jack Wilson
2B Freddy Sanchez
LF Jason Bay
1B Adam LaRoche
RF Xavier Nady
3B Jose Bautista
C Ronny Paulino
P Zach Duke


Brewers Probable Lineup:
2B Rickie Weeks
SS JJ Hardy
1B Prince Fielder
CF Bill Hall
C Johnny Estrada
LF Kevin Mench
RF Corey Hart
3B Tony Graffanino
P Jeff Suppan


Captain Erv's Bold Prediction: After a nice bounce back trouncing of the Pirates, the Brewers look to go to a season-high ten games over .500. Suppan has been dominant as of late and Duke has had a couple of rough starts at Miller in his career. Get on him early and this should be another W.

Hopefully the run scoring carries over to tommarow night.

Duke has been very hittable this year and with 2 recent and decent (3er) outings against the previously inept offense of the cubs and the currently inept offense of the Astros it is time to knock him around.

Shouldn't this be Sheets spot in the rotation? Did the injury mess that up?

You mean 15 year high 10 games over .500 right?

Suuuup has been dealing so far. Hope it continues. It would be awesome to go into Sunday having a chance to win the series after dropping the first one.

I wonder how Jenkins is handling sitting three days in a row...? Or will be sitting 3 days in a row I'd imagine. Helps if the club is winning I guess.

Hard for players to complain when the team is winning. Shrek has been cooling off though, only hitting .136 in his last 6 games. I wouldn't be surprised to see Jenks in there tonight.

The Brewers have had a few rainouts during the season, that would be my guess

I'd be surprised if that happened. Even though Mench is struggling he still hits lefties much better than Jenkins.

Hardy is a stud, offensively and defensively. :bowdown:
