Minnesota looks to continue hot streak against Brewers

Jun 27, 2008 - 2:11 PM MINNEAPOLIS (Ticker) -- The surging Minnesota Twins have the opportunity to extend their longest winning streak in two years when they face the Milwaukee Brewers in the opener of a three-game series on Friday.

The Twins, winners of nine in a row, also have a chance to move into first place in the American League Central Division.

Minnesota's winning streak is its longest since an 11-game run from June 22-July 3, 2006.

Nick Blackburn (6-4, 3.68 ERA) takes the mound for the Twins after giving up just three runs in his past 13 innings.

The Brewers, who have won eighth of ten, will counter with Seth McClung (5-3, 3.79). Milwaukee slugger Price Fielder is in an 0-for-12 slump.
