Milwaukee Brewers entered that series with the NL lead in home runs after going deep five times against the Twins, but they couldn’t hit one out of Yankee Stadium. Of Milwaukee’s 25 hits in the Bronx, 22 were singles - including all five in Thursday’s 5-0 loss. They went into New York feeling good about itself after outscoring Minnesota 21-6 in three victories, but that offense disappeared against the Yankees. They try to bounce back from being swept in the Bronx on Friday by visiting the Twins, whom they’ve beaten seven consecutive times after last weekend’s sweep at Miller Park.
Minnesota Twins' Francisco Liriano fell to 3-2 with a 4.05 ERA in five starts against the Brewers, and facing them at home may not help. His 7.62 ERA at Target Field is more than four runs higher than his road ERA. Minnesota finished June 10-2 at Target Field despite being outhit 111-97 - though Monday’s loss certainly had plenty to do with that. They responded with a 6-4 win Tuesday, then got a fantastic start from Scott Baker in Wednesday’s 1-0 victory. They have to hope Roenicke’s words hold true at Target Field, and given Milwaukee’s precipitous drop in success on the road, they might.
