that would be silly.

if they could sweep Milwaukee, they’d be in the Wild-Card slot, or very close to it.

New pitcher Craig Hansen

has 9BB and 3K in 10innings!

The critical thing to understand is that major-league pitchers don't appear to have the ability to prevent hits on balls in play. There are many possible reasons why this is the case, and I don't really have a concrete idea as to why it is.

But the one thing I do know is that it is the case.
