BREWERS 2, DODGERS 1
I'm writing this at about 10am, which can only mean one thing: It's get-away day at the ballpark today. Before I go to the stadium this morning, I thought I'd do a little review of last night's game.

Chris Capuano pitched well until he had tightness in his triceps which caused him to leave the game early. The bullpen pitched incredibly well. Mike Adams, Jeff Bennett, Brooks Kieschnick, Dan Kolb, Luis Vizcaino and Matt Kinney all held the Dodgers scoreless after Capuano left.

Last night was my first interaction with the 2004 Brewers. Sitting in the bullpen last night I noticed a much different energy amongst the club. A lot of that can be attributed to the fact that they are playing good ball, but some of it I think could be that maybe they just have a bunch of good guys. I know it might not make a significant difference in the win/loss column, but it's nice to know that the team you like isn't made up of a bunch of jerks.

Sorry I was a little brief with the analysis, but waking up before noon is rough for me since I'm still acclimated to the whole west-coast time thing.
