This just in. The Brewers are incapable of sweeping.
In two well played games, the Crew split the series with the A's in some pretty good matchups.
Game 1Tulow continued his hot streak, knocking in a 1 run blast while the A's answered back with a TonyCarlos Pena HR that occurred as a result of me nervously tapping the A button between innings. As the batters screen came into view, I watched in horror as I dropped a slow groover over the middle of the plate which Mr. Pena easily knocked out of the park. I vowed not to lose because of a stupid controller mistake, and was able to sacrifice a run in later in the game to seal the win 2-1. Harang pitched surprisingly well.

Game 2This game was another well-fought one, but a little bit of speed helped the A's push in a run that might have otherwise not made it, along with a few stolen bases to advance the runners. Game 1 the A's got thrown out on some silly poor base-running, but game 2 they ran smart, and went up 3-1 (the Crew's run coming off of a Lopez homer earlier on). Gomes made it interesting in the 7th with a blast of his own, but the Crew knew they were done when their heavy hitters couldn't get it done in the 8th, and the A's split the series with a 3-2 win over the mediocre Brewers. GG's Kahouty...
