Diamondbacks kick off road trip in Milwaukee

Baseball Betting Lines

06/02/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National League West-leading Arizona Diamondbacks begin a 10-game road trip tonight, starting with the first of three consecutive games against the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park.

Arizona is 11-13 away from the desert this season and will also visit Pittsburgh for four games and the New York Mets for three on the trek. It just went 2-4 on a six-game homestand, winning the last two installments of a three-game series versus the Washington Nationals at Chase Field.

After ending a five-game slide with a 4-0 victory over the Nationals on Saturday, the D'Backs registered a 5-0 win in Sunday's series finale. Dan Haren was solid through seven innings and scattered four hits, walked three and had five strikeouts to snap a two-start losing streak. Chad Qualls and Tony Pena each hurled a perfect inning of relief to preserve the win.

Orlando Hudson hit a three-run homer for Arizona, while Chad Tracy also went deep in the winning cause. Arizona has recorded back-to-back shutouts for the first time since May 26-27, 2006 at Cincinnati. Brandon Webb tossed a shutout in Saturday's victory.

Trying to keep the Arizona rotation rolling on Monday will be Doug Davis, who is 2-2 with a 4.57 ERA in four starts this season. Davis made his second start, first at home, since returning from surgery to remove his cancerous thyroid gland on May 28 versus the division-rival San Francisco Giants. He was rocked for six runs and nine hits over five frames of an 11-3 setback, and watched his two-start winning streak come to an end.

The left-hander is 0-1 with a 9.00 earned run average in two career starts against the Brewers. Davis played parts of 2003 and 2004-2006 with Milwaukee.

Milwaukee has won three straight, six of seven and nine of its last 13 games. It improved to 5-1 on a nine-game homestand following Sunday's 10-1 pounding of the Houston Astros in the finale of a three-game set at Miller Park. Starter Dave Bush pitched seven decent innings of one-run ball, allowing four hits with five strikeouts and no walks.

Russell Branyan and Ryan Braun each hit two-run homers, while Craig Counsell was 2-for-4 with a two-run double for Milwaukee, which is 16-10 as the host this season.

Brewers starting pitcher Jeff Suppan is coming off his best outing of the season in which he tossed eight shutout innings in a 1-0 home win over Atlanta on May 28. He ended a two-start losing streak with the effort and improved to 3-4 with a 3.93 earned run average through 11 starts in 2008.

The righty is 2-3 with a 3.86 ERA in six career appearances, all starts, against the Diamondbacks.

Arizona and Milwaukee are meeting for the first time since the Brewers won five of seven meetings in 2007, with a 3-1 record at Miller Park.
