Brewers Get Shutdown By Astros And Oswalt 5-0

After the Milwaukee Brewers played well Tuesday against the Houston Astros I thought we may get another good performance, but it did not happen. Astros ace Roy Oswalt had command of his pitches and cruised to an easy 5-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers who lost another home game which is no shock. Oswalt went 8 innings and only gave up four hits in the win. The Brewers Chris Naverson went only 4 innings giving up 8 hits and four runs to take the loss. Two bright spots for the Brewers were Trevor Hoffman who pitched one scoreless inning and Jeff Suppan pitched two innings of shutout ball.

Ryan Braun collected two hits for the Brewers and was the only Brewer play to do so. The Brewers are now 5-15 at home. That is just plain horrible no two ways about it. I do not know why the Brewers play so bad at home, but they do. Today, the Brewers have Dave Bush pitching  with a 1:10 PM et start time. Hopefully, Dave Bush can give the Brewers some decent innings so the bullpen can get a rest. They have logged many innings already and it is still early in the season.
