Brewers Offense Stale in St. Louis

 

The Brewers could only muster up two hits against the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night as the Redbirds downed Milwaukee 2-0. Kyle Lohse pitched admirably in his return to Busch Stadium, allowing two runs on six hits over seven innings. Lohse struck out two batters in his performance but was bested by Cardinals pitched Shelby Miller. Miller went seven innings and allowed just one hit in his time on the mound. If the Brewers are going to rebound today it has to be against Adam Wainwright (1-1, 3.46 ERA). Yovani Gallardo (0-0, 5.73) will take the bump for the Crew. Coverage begins Saturday at 2:40pm on News-Talk 1450 KFIZ.

 

Bucks Lose to Hawks

 

The Bucks are winding down their regular season hoping not to limp into the playoffs although that wasn’t the case on Friday night when they blew a fourth quarter lead to the Atlanta Hawks. Milwaukee was outscored 34-22 in the game’s final stanza, dropping the contest 109-104. Milwaukee falls to 37-42 on the season. Monta Ellis lead the Bucks with 27 points and a career-high 17 assists. Ersan Illyasova added 25 points. Brandon Jennings did not play. The Bucks travel to Charlotte to take on the Bobcats tonight, you can find coverage on KFIZ after the Brewer game.
