ONE game? What's your logic? D-Backs won the season series 4-3...

First two are in Milwaukee - the Brewers have become unbeatable at Miller Park... I think the Snakes take game 3 - but game 4, the big sluggers take control.
bear in mind - this is coming from a guy who predicted in april that the world series would feature a team that ended up losing 99 games this year... so there's that...

Well, D-Backs took 2 of 3 from them there in July, then split a 4-game series at Chase field later that month....I like Kennedy over Gallardo in game one....Kennedy has just been unbeatable, going 13-1 in his last 15 starts.

Regarding the pitching matchup:
Gallardo, who went 10-2 with a 3.00 ERA at home this year, scored two of his victories this season against the D-backs, allowing one run on four hits each time. The 25-year-old will be pitching on seven days' rest, but threw a simulated game Tuesday to beef up his between-starts regimen.
"He wants the ball, and he doesn't care who it's against or what the circumstances are," pitching coach Rick Kranitz said of Gallardo. "He wants the ball in his hand."
On July 21, Kennedy threw seven shutout innings at home against the Brewers for a victory in a four-game series the teams split. In that start, he struck out Fielder twice but allowed Braun a double, one of just four hits against him, and the only one for extra bases.
Should be a low scoring pitchers duel.

If your Phillies predictions (regardless of opponent) are correct, you drink on me (beer of your choosing) at the Richmond tailgate.
I hope to pay up on this one.

I predict that I will be nicely buzzed before the 8:37pm start of the Yanks game tonight.
I'll be in Section 233b - right next to Beers of the World.

Good to see that Phils fans aren't the only homers.

My head tells me that the Yanks don't have deep enough pitching, but in a season in which two of their long-time stars put emphatic exclamation points on their status as all-time greats, the 2011 Yankees seem to be a team of destiny. Remember all the smart guys said Boston and Tampa would go 1-2 in the East this year ...

Brewers ride 8 amazing innings from Gallardo and a homer by Fielder 4-1 to take game 1 from the Snakes.

Assisted by horrible base coaching and managing decisions.
Matt Williams killed the Dbacks in the 1st. Galliardo hadn't settled in, and gives up a couple hits. Williams kills the rally by stupidly sending the runner from third, out by a mile.
The decision to pitch to Fielder with 1st base open was beyond stupid

Destiny tried in the form of rain, and a slippery on-deck circle.
Tigers win game 2
