The St Louis
Cardinals blanked the Brewers 2-0 on Wednesday night.  Brewers starter Mike Fiers took a no-hitter
into the 6^th before Adam Wainwright broke it up.  Wainwright also spoiled the Brewers day at
the plate, throwing the complete game seven hitter that included 7 K’s.  The Cardinals plated both of their runs in the
7^th inning.  The loss leaves
the Brewers 5 games behind St. Louis
in the N.L. Central and 2.5 games behind the Pirates in the race for the final
Wild Card.  The Pirates have won 10 of
their last 12 after last night’s 9-1 win over Boston. 
The Cubs also beat the Reds 3-1 last night.   The Brewers and Cardinals wrap up their
series tonight as Kyle Lohse takes on Shelby Miller.  Coverage begins at 6:40pm on News-Talk 1450
KFIZ. 

 

The LA Angels
had already clinched a playoff spot, but last night secured the A.L. West with
a 5-0 win over Seattle. 

 

The Brewers
extended their minor league affiliations with Single A, Brevard
County and also Biloxi, Mississippi
in Double-A.  Huntsville,
the long time home to the Brewers Double-A squad was sold and is moving to Biloxi next season.  GM Doug Melvin also found out that Triple-A
affiliate Nashville will sign a deal with Oakland, leaving Milwaukee
without a top minor league affiliate.  Colorado Springs and Fresno
are the only two cities left searching for franchise to team with as of right
now.

 

The Packers
travel to Detroit
on Sunday, in what will begin a run where they will play 3 NFC North foes in
just 12 days.  Right tackle Brian Bulaga
and safety Micah Hyde were both limited in practice on Wednesday, and it won’t
be decided until later in the week if they will play.  Mike McCarthy did say that linebacker Andy
Mulumba will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury.  Sunday’s game kicks off at Noon.  Coverage begins at 10am on News-Talk 1450
KFIZ.

 

Week 3 of the
NFL season begins tonight as Atlanta hosts Tampa Bay. 

 

Heisman Trophy
winner Jamies Winston has been suspended for the first half of #1 Florida State’s game with Clemson on Saturday
