Suppan returns to face Cardinals
Apr 14, 2007 - 2:14 PM Milwaukee (5-4) at St Louis (5-4), 7:10 pm EDTST. LOUIS (Ticker) -- Despite pitching on the road, Jeff Suppan is likely to get a warm reception from the crowd on Saturday.
Postseason hero Suppan will get the start against his old team when the Milwaukee Brewers visit the St. Louis Cardinals in the first game of a three-game series due to Friday's rainout.
Suppan (0-2, 4.15) made two starts in the National League Championship Series for the Cardinals last season, allowing just one run and five hits in 15 combined innings to win the NLCS MVP award.
The veteran righthander signed a four-year, $42 million contract with the National League Central Division rival Brewers in the offseason, and has yet to notch a win in two starts. He allowed five runs - four earned - in six innings Monday to take a loss at Florida.
Suppan went 7-2 with a 3.18 ERA in 17 starts at Busch Stadium last season.
St. Louis will counter with its own offseason addition, Kip Wells. The veteran righthander signed a one-year, $4 million contract in part to replace Suppan in the rotation.
Wells (1-1, 1.38) pitched a gem in his last start, allowing just one hit in seven shutout innings while striking out seven to take the win Sunday at Houston.
The Cardinals have won four games in a row but are still searching for their first home win of the season after being swept in three games to open the season by the New York Mets.
