Edmonds starts again
Coming off a four-hit game against the Pirates, Jim Edmonds is back in the Brewers’ lineup for the opener of a three-game series against the Cubs. Chicago righty and longtime Brewer-killer Ryan Dempster will have to contend with a Milwaukee club that has scored 47 runs during its four-game winning streak.
(One more Edmonds note: His four hits on Thursday matched a career-high. It was the 21st four-hit game of his career and his first since April 2007, against the Brewers for the Cardinals.)
Here’s the lineup:
Rickie Weeks 2B
Carlos Gomez CF
Ryan Braun LF
Prince Fielder 1B
Casey McGehee 3B
Jim Edmonds RF
Gregg Zaun C
Alcides Escobar SS
Jeff Suppan RHP
