MILWAUKEE 6, HOUSTON 1
The Milwaukee Brewers got their first win of the season behind 6 masterful innings from staff-ace Ben Sheets. Sheets dazzled the Astros with a career-high 10 strikeouts, 0 walks, 4 hits and 0 runs. It was nice to see Sheets pitch well after a rough spring training and poor opening start vs. St. Louis on Monday.

Jeff Bennett allowed an unearned run (Scott Podsednik's 3-base error) in two innings of work and Luis Vizcaino threw up a zero in the ninth.

Offensively the Brewers hammered out 10 hits and drew 5 walks with 1 hit batter. Wes Helms went 2-4 with a three-run homerun in the fifth. Lyle Overbay went 2-4 with an RBI and Geoff Jenkins went 2-3 with a walk. The Brewers are going to score some runs this year, I don't think there is any question about that.

Tomorrow the Brewers will send Doug Davis to the hill against Roy Oswalt. The Brewers will have an opportunity to win their second straight series to open up the season.
