Game Thirty Six: Brewers 8, Padres 6

Box Score

After the 4th inning I was convinced Shawn Marcum was going to throw a complete-game shutout. He needed only 35 pitches to reach that point, the Padres looked helpless against his change-up, and the Brewers had an 8-0 lead. And then the wheels came off with a vengeance. I was a three-run homer from Ryan Ludwick away from swearing off the Brewers forever, but John Axford was kind enough to spare me a metaphorical kick in the pants.

Tomorrow the Brewers go for the sweep. It's nice to know that as bad as they are on the road, at least they can hold serve at home.
