BREWERS BATS COME ALIVE
 
Maybe we all should've known that something was up when SCOTT PODSEDNIK lead off with a homerun Friday night, scoring more runs in one swing than the Brewers had scored in the previous two games.
 
The Brewers finally hit the long ball on Friday. Along with Podsednik's 10th homerun of the season, KEITH GINTER added a solo shot (his 11th) on the first pitch he saw leading off the sixth. BEN GRIEVE hit his first homerun since May 28th, which was a big one because it actually came with men on base.
 
DAN KOLB added his 29th save of the year. The Brewers win and are at 48-47. They are still only 4.5 out of the wild card, but there are five teams ahead of them.
