The Milwaukee Brewers scored early and late as they pounded the Los Angeles Dodgers for a second straight game. Milwaukee four runs in the first inning and got five more in the 8th inning and added two more in the 9th inning for a 11-3 rout of the Dodgers. Prince Fielder was 2 for 3 with 2 RBI's and Rickie weeks was 3 for 5 with 3 RBI's. In total the Brewers got 13 hits and have been hitting the ball much better. Of course this could also have something to do with the Dodgers pitching staff who has struggled.
Doug Davis struggled in the game, but did pitch well enough to get the win. he gave up three earned runs and the bullpen closed the door the rest of the way. This series against the Dodgers has shown the Brewers can hit the ball and when given good pitching they can win ball games. The key is they must continue to do this series after series. Just playing well in one series will not get the job done. Hopefully the Brewers will continue on a roll. I doubt it, but we will see.
