Slow start for Davis, Brewers rescue their starter

April 8, 2010 By Bill Scott

Doug DavisDoug Davis spotted the Colorado Rockies 3-runs in the first inning, throwing 40 pitches in the frame.  The total damage was 4 runs and six hits with three walks in four innings, but the Milwaukee Brewers bullpen came to the rescue and the Brewers rebounded for a 5-4 win. 

After losing the opener, the Brewers took 2 of 3 in the series.  For Davis, it was an ugly beginning, but he knew if he could minimize the damage, the Brewers would still have a chance.

Brewers manager Ken Macha said they still have high hopes for Davis this season and Wednesday’s performance was just a small bump in the road.  He knows Davis struggled but he likes what he saw from his bullpen.

Jim Edmonds’ leadoff single in the 6th inning set up a two-run rally that gave the Brewers the lead.  Edmonds finished 2 for 4 with two runs scored.  Trevor Hoffman then came on to nail down his 593rd career save.

The Brewers are off today.  They’ll open a 3-game weekend series against the St. Louis Cardinals at Miller Park.
