Brewers 1, Astros 6: Roy’s Back!
Team | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | R | H | E |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Brewers (33-31) | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 5 | 2 |
Astros (33-32) | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4 | 0 | - | 6 | 8 | 0 |
W: Oswalt (5-6)
L: McClung (3-3)
Roy Oswalt had his best outing of the year by far, dominating the Brewers in 7 innings of work. Astros fans are happy everywhere today.
If Oswalt returns to his Cy Young self, the Astros rotation will receive a healthy shot in the arm, that’s for sure. And this time it won’t be Roger Clemens or Miguel Tejada holding the needle.
Oswalt struck out 10, allowing only one run on a solo shot from Ryan Braun.
The same two teams face off again tonight when Manny Parra battles Brandon Backe at 8:05pm EDT.
