Sweep...on the road?

Little late with this posting, my apologies.

The Crew came out a-swinging last night putting the hurt on Ian Snell dishing out 9 hits. Ben Sheets threw a complete game earning the victory (5-1), however he did allow 11 hits. This of course was pointed out by the dueche bags on Sports Center this morning. Never mind the accomplishment of pitching 9 innings and striking out 6 batters....oh yea, and walking none. One more reason why I despise ESPN.

Enough of that. It was a good game that saw Ryan Braun hit a perfectly place center-left field stand up triple and Rickie Weeks hitting his 6th HR of the season. All in all, this was a nice win.

-PNC's attendance was just over 8,000. On a Wednesday? It's tough filling such a large stadium on a school night.

-Russell Branyan may be getting the call soon. He could very well be platooning with Billy Hall, being used against left handed pitchers.

I will write more tonight after the game. Work is hectic.
