Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Zach Davies has been so good for so long.  Yesterday, Davies struggled, allowing six runs in 4 1/3 innings in a 8-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers at Miller Park.

Davies had gone 5-0 with a 2.64 ERA over his previous 10 starts.  He was 3-0 with a 1.64 ERA in five outings in June.  But Davies surrendered home runs to Trayce Thompson, Yasmani Grandal and Corey Seager.

Overall, Davies allowed eight hits.  The 4 1/3 innings is his shortest start since his first start on April 17. [Read more…]

Brewers need extra’s to beat the Braves

May 26, 2016 By Bill Scott

Brewers logoFor the 11th straight time, the Milwaukee Brewers were involved in a game decided by two or fewer runs.  They won their second straight close outing, knocking off the Braves 3-2 in 13 innings.

Jonathan Villar’s RBI single in the top of the 13th was the game winner at Turner Field.  The Brewers are 6-5 during  the 11-game stretch and 4-4 in one-run games during that time frame.

The winning rally started when Kirk Nieuwenhuis singled.  Aaron Hill followed with a walk and Keon Broxton recorded his first major-league hit with a bloop bunt that evaded the pitcher.

Martin Maldonado grounded into a fielder’s choice with Nieuwenhuis being forced out at home.  Villar then followed with a single to left that scored Hill. [Read more…]

The Milwaukee Brewers avoided a season-opening sweep at the hands of San Francisco, knocking off the Giants 4-3 at Miller Park on Wednesday afternoon.

Chris Carter, who clubbed a solo home run earlier, broke a 3-3 tie in the 7th inning with a sacrifice fly, delivering the game winning run.  His home run came off of Giants starter Jeff Samardzija, to right center.

The Brewers avoided digging a big hole early, thanks to the defense of third baseman Aaron Hill.  In the first inning, Hill raced down the left-field line to haul in Brandon Belt’s pop fly with an over-the-shoulder catch.  Hill then turned and fired a strike to the plate to get Buster Posey tagging from third base.

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said he plays to give veteran infielder Aaron Hill plenty of opportunity to win the teams third base job.

The 33-year-old Hill has spent most of his career as a second baseman.  Over eleven seasons in the majors, Hill has 1,148 starts at second, with 72 starts at third base and 61 starts at shortstop.

Hill came to the Brewers, along with pitcher Chase Anderson and shortstop prospect Isan Diaz in a offseason trade for shortstop Jean Segura and right-hander Tyler Wagner.

Others will get looks at third base as well, including newcomers Will Middlebrooks and Garin Cecchini, but Counsell wants Hill to get a good look first.

Arizona made Anderson available after signing free agent Zach Greinke and trading for All-Star pitcher Shelby Miller.

The Diamondbacks were looking for a little more offense, despite ranking second in the National League in scoring last season. [Read more…]
