Hot Burrell leads Phillies over Brewers
MILWAUKEE — The way Pat Burrell is hitting these days, even being down two strikes doesn’t seem to matter.
Burrell’s two-out, two-run double on an 0-2 count broke a tie in the eighth inning, and the Philadelphia Phillies’ bullpen held strong in a 3-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday.
"Big knock," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "He’s swinging good, man. He’s hot."
Burrell’s latest bash ran his RBI total to 25, best in the major leagues. Burrell has reached base in 21 straight games after going 1-for-2 with two walks Thursday.

True, you can't win them all but it would be nice to get some run support for the pitchers. Leaving the bases loaded with only one out and coming up empty, that hurts.
