MLB.com: Brewers rough up reeling Pirates It took the Brewers a few innings to figure out Pirates starter Paul Maholm, but a five-run rally in the sixth put all questions to rest, as Milwaukee beat the Pirates, 11-3, on Saturday night at PNC Park.
MLB.com: Looper rocked by Astros in Houston A six-run first inning sank Braden Looper and the Cardinals on Saturday night. St. Louis fell to the Astros, 8-5, at Minute Maid Park… The first seven batters to face Looper all reached base, with five of them connecting for extra bases.

Mike Cameron has been playing for a long time and by all accounts is a class act.
And the Pirates are, well, not good....

Could the Brewers do me a favor and hire Gene Mauch and Willie Randolph as advisors? Otherwise the wild card chase in the NL is over.
Yost has the sense to stay out of the way. It's something of a shocker.
The bigger surprise to me is the team playing like this with Prince being pretty pedestrian. Frankly, he's a net negative at the moment given his defense and baserunning. I couldn't be more disappointed in his glovework this season. It's as if he has stopped trying.
The less charitable folks around the team suggest that the contract, or lack thereof, is the issue.
If so, yuck...
Unfortunately for them, the two teams with better winning percentages this month are well, you know...
