First game of the year between the top two teams in the Central right now.
Took two of three at Wrigley, only scoring 7 runs, (one in the last two games). Lets hope the Brewers bats can get going against a Reds pitcher who was shaky in his first start against the Pirates. He started the season on the DL with a sore back, and wash pushed back to rest seven days so he wouldn't have to face the Cubs, a team with which he has a poor track record. Milton is 4-3 with a 3.93 ERA in 8 games against Milwaukee. Lets hope the Brewers can get some hits together today, and maybe Billy Hall can get back on track against a team he normally kills. I'd like a repeat of this from last year..
