With opening day in sight, the Milwaukee Brewers trimmed their roster to 27 players, with two more moves necessary to get to the opening day 25-man squad.

Headlining the moves yesterday were infielders Matt Clark and Jason Rodgers being sent to Class AAA Colorado Springs.  Both had good springs and were being considered for the opening day roster.

The Brewers also sent right-handed reliever Rob Wooten to Colorado Springs, leaving the Brewers with 13 pitchers in camp.  Among the 13 is Jim Henderson, who is expected to start the season either on the [Read more…]

The Milwaukee Brewers are fighting to stay in the National League playoff picture.  They came from behind to knock off the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 in 12-innings on Tuesday night at Busch Stadium.  It ended a string of eight straight Cardinal victories over the Brewers at Busch Stadium.

St. Louis scored two runs in the first inning off of Wily Peralta, but it could have been worse.  Peralta walked in a run and faced the bases loaded with no outs.  But Peralta got Jhonny Peralta to ground into a 6-4-3 double play that made it 2-0.  Yadier Molina followed with a comebacker to Wily Peralta and the damage was minimal.

Peralta and the rest of the Brewers pitching staff then held the Cardinals scoreless for the next 11 innings to pull out the win.

Gerardo Parra gave the Brewers one run when he homered off of Cardinals starter Lance Lynn in the fourth.

Then with Cardinals closer Trevor Rosenthal on in the 9th to try to save the Cardinal win, rookie Matt Clark lifted a fly ball to left to drive in the tying run.  It stayed 2-2 until the 12th when Carlos Gomez singled, stole second and third and then scored in a Hector Gomez bloop single to right drive in the game winner.

Brewers win second straight, Stanton sidelined (Video)

September 12, 2014 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Brewers won their second straight game, knocking off the Miami Marlins 4-2 at Miller Park on Thursday night.  It’s the first time the Brewers have won back-to-back games since Aug. 24-25.

But the game was marred by Miami slugger Giancarlo Stanton getting hit in the face by a Mike Fiers fastball in the fifth inning.

Stanton was struck on the left side of his face and went down immediately in the batters box.  Stanton was attended to and then taken off the field on a mini-ambulance.  Stanton lost so much blood that the grounds crew had to come in to cleanup the batter’s box.

Stanton suffered multiple facial fractures, dental damage and a facial laceration that required stitches.  He’s likely done for the season.

Mike Fiers was visibly shaken by the sight of Stanton sprawled on the ground.  “It’s very tough.  I’ve never in my life experienced anything like that.  It was very hard for me to take in everything at the moment and come back and thrown another pitch.”

“I just want to send my thoughts and prayers to Giancarlo Stanton.  I would never think of throwing at somebody like that.  Never in my life has something like that happened.  I’m very sad that it hit them.  I’m very sorry to their teammates, their fans, his family.  It’s just tough.” [Read more…]

Peralta allowed a single run, scattering five hits with three walks and five strikeouts in improving to 16-10 for the season.

Rookie Matt Clark, a September call-up, received his second start at first base.  He drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, then clubbed his first major league home run in the seventh.

Carlos Gomez stole his 30th base of the season and the 200th of his career.  He’s the second player in Brewers history to steal 30-plus bases three times, joining Paul Molitor.

Francisco Rodriguez worked the 9th inning and earned his 40th save of the season.  He needs four more to move into 10th place on the all-time list.

Mike Fiers (5-2, 2.03) pitches the series finale for the Brewers tonight.  He’ll face Miami’s Nathan Eovaldi (6-10, 4.19).
