Game 115: Astros 8 Brewers 5

Fielder and Braun
make Roy Oswalt look silly
but that's about it.

Baseball baffler:
When does slider have no slide?
When thrown by Weathers

Game 114: Brewers 6, Astros 2

Six runs, no home runs
Great pitching from pen and Burns
Some real signs of hope

Game 113: Brewers 11, Astros 2

Two game winning streak
Wandy caught with his pants down
never recovered.

Crew's lazy Sunday
Finishes their vacation
Now come home to work

Game 108: Brewers 12, Astros 5

Forget the twelve runs
Big story is Smith and Burns
Pitch shutout innings

Hardy Hall Gerut
cannot hit to save their life -
all three are in there.

Game 107: Brewers 3, Astros 6

Kendall's shot wasted
By sagging middle relief
Weekend looks ugly

Game 18: Brewers 2, Astros 3

Clutch hits don't appear
So road trip ends in whimper
Miller Park beckons

Game 17: Brewers 9, Astros 8 (11 innings)

Throwing games away
Only to grab them right back
Going for the sweep
-db


Groaning at Carlos
But misplaced anguish in ninth
No field Fielder
-db


Oh how the words flow,
Like lightening sky dances,
On four-game win streak
-db


With cold rain back home
Offense heats up way down south
While pitchers freeze up

Game 16: Brewers 5, Astros 2

Yovani goes the
distance, holding the Astros
on the launching pad.

Rickie, Corey, Braun,
Prince and Mike, JJ, Kendall,
each reach, bats alive.

Brew Crew Haiku's bad
Only one reference to Yo
Many more to come

Wait-- who is that behind us?

Spying October
Wrong end of the telescope
Big games come up small

Aug. 19 - Brewers 2, Astros 5

Fonzie throws first pitch
But Sheets pitches like Potsie
That's not so good, Al

Aug 18 - Brewers 9, Astros 3

'Babe' Sabbathia
Hits, runs ... even pitches nine
Matt LaPorta who?

July 26 - Brewers 6, Astros 4

Given enough time
Competitors' paths converge
Brewers, Cubs even

Prince's irony:
The larger Fielder gets
The less you see him

July 25 - Brewers 1, Astros 3

Astronaut weary-
Autopilot disengaged
On return trip home

June 12 - Milwaukee 9, Houston 6

Lineup Transformed
Strong Hart leads to Hardy Braun
And beefy stat line

Two shots from the Hart
To win the game, Corey you
Give love a bad name

Cameron plays short
Bases loaded drive goes long
Gold glove no help there

Ryan Braun doll day
And nothing better than him
On his home run trot

Winning sweeps doldrums
Summer lilies ready blooms
June's opening day
