Brewers' Sheets goes for fourth road win

May 21, 2008 - 1:34 PM Milwaukee (21-24) at Pittsburgh (21-24) 7:05 pm EDT

PITTSBURGH (Ticker) - Milwaukee Brewers staff ace Ben Sheets has has most of his success this season away from home.

Sheets looks to remain undefeated on the road when the Brewers meet the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday in the second of a three-game series.

Sheets (4-1, 3.25 ERA) has posted an impressive 3-0 record with a 2.97 ERA away from Miller Park this season. The righthander's last road loss came here when the Pirates got five runs off him in six innings on July 5, 2007.

Most recently, Sheets was pounded for six runs and nine hits in 6 1/3 innings of a 7-2 setback to the Los Angeles Dodgers last Thursday at home.

Ian Snell (2-2, 5.05) counters for the Pirates, who pounded out 14 hits en route to a 7-2 triumph over the Brewers in the series opener on Tuesday. Snell enters with a 4-0 record in five career meetings against Milwaukee.

In his last outing, the righthander gave up five runs and 11 hits in just four innings but did not figure into the decision at St. Louis last Thursday.
