Scouting Report
Brewers: Suppan delivered yet another mediocre start his last time out, allowing four runs -- three earned -- in 5 2/3 innings against the Reds. But Suppan also was victimized by four Brewers errors which played a part in all four runs scoring. Suppan hasn't lasted six full innings in 10 of his last 14 starts after being unable to do so just once in his first 12 outings.
D'Backs: Webb has simply been unhittable in his last five starts. The right-hander has thrown 42 scoreless innings, the second longest streak since division play began in 1969. Former Dodgers pitcher Orel Hershiser owns the record with 59. In his last three starts, Webb has gone the distance becoming the first to do that since Roger Clemens in 1998. In his last start against the Braves, Webb allowed just two hits and one walk while fanning six. Just one Atlanta batter got as far as second base in the game.

Captain Erv's Thoughts: Winning the first two games of this nine-game roadtrip takes a little bit of the sting away from that 1-5 homestand. Sweeping the D'Backs in Arizona would definitely be one of the biggest accomplishments of the season, but saying it isn't going to be easy would be an understatement. We all know the numbers, Webb is filthy. Hopefully Gazpacho is on his game and our offense continues to hit.
