Milwaukee Brewers   rebounded from a sweep at Kansas City last week by taking two of three from both




Milwaukee Brewers   rebounded from a sweep at Kansas City last week by taking two of three from both Minnesota and Toronto during its current interleague airline tickets canada stretch. The White Sox have lost four consecutive series against National League teams, most recently dropping two of three at home against the crosstown rival Cubs. The Brewers and White Sox have played just one three-game series since 2001, with Chicago winning two of three games from Milwaukee in June of 2009.
Chicago White Sox , led by DH Adam Dunn (23 HR) and first baseman Paul Konerko (.354 batting average), surged to the front of the American League Central early in the month but has dropped six of eight to fall into second place, one game back of Cleveland. Milwaukee continues airline tickets canada to tread water in the National League Central, 6 1/2 games behind first-place Cincinnati. Outfielder Ryan Braun, the reigning NL MVP, is again leading the way offensively (.321, 20 HR, 51 RBIs).
Greinke has been his usual outstanding self in Milwaukee, but he has been far more human on the road, going 3-2 with a 4.96 ERA in eight away starts this season. He has lost two road outings airline tickets canada in a row, giving up four runs on 11 hits in eight innings at Minnesota airline tickets canada on June 17. Greinke is just 6-10 with a 4.23 ERA in 24 career games (21 starts) against the White Sox.
In his first year as a major-league starter, Sale has proven to be one of the AL's most dominating pitchers. He ranks among the league leaders with 82 strikeouts while surrendering just 22 walks and posting a 1.00 WHIP. He struggled in his last start June 15 at the Los Angeles Dodgers (5 2/3 IP, 7 H, 5 ER, 4 BB, 6 K), snapping a five-start run that saw him yield just four runs in 36 2/3 innings.
2. Sale, who has yet to face the Brewers, has never allowed a run against an NL Central team — in 10 innings against Houston and the Chicago Cubs, he has yielded seven hits, striking out 10 with no walks.
