Final
Suppan and Brewers look to continue dominance of Rockies
Jul 15, 2007 - 2:28 PM Colorado (45-45) at Milwaukee (50-40) 2:05 pm EDTMILWAUKEE (Ticker) - Jeff Suppan takes the hill on Sunday as the Milwaukee Brewers look to continue their dominance over the Colorado Rockies.
Suppan (8-8, 5.00 ERA) has been struggling of late, going 1-3 with a 7.78 ERA in his last seven starts. The righthander hopes to benefit from the fact that the Brewers are an NL-best 31-14 at home and have won 13 of the last 17 meetings between the teams.
Suppan, who is winless in his last three starts, allowed four runs and six hits with five walks in five innings against Washington on July 7.
Suppan may get back on track against the Rockies. He is 5-1 with a 3.65 ERA in seven starts against them and beat them three times for St. Louis last season.
Milwaukee posted a 2-1 win in 10 innings on Saturday, after being no-hit for 5 2/3 innings by Rodrigo Lopez. Corey Hart hit a homer in the sixth to tie it at 1-1 and pinch hitter Tony Graffanino hit a walk-off RBI single to win it.
Colorado, which has lost two of three, will send Aaron Cook (5-6, 4.68) to the mound. Cook has had a rough go of it lately, going 1-5 with a 5.47 ERA in his last eight starts.
Last Sunday, the righthander allowed four runs and a season-high 12 hits to Philadelphia.
