The series shifts to Tampa with the Brewers up two games to none. But both games were close, it isn’t like the Brewers have been blowing the Rays out or anything. I’m still hoping for seven games.
The lineups:

And it was Joe Siddall’s birthday yesterday, he is 59. So get down into your tradition catcher’s stance (no one knee down stuff) and say Happy Birthday to him, a day late.
Today we have Frank Wills (who would be 68, but he passed away in 2012), Dominic Leone (35, who was part of the trade that brought us Randal Grichuk), and Francisco Liriano (43, who was part of the trade that brought us Teoscar Hernandez) all having birthdays.
