Brewers Skunk Cards 6-0 in Game 2

The positive things about Game 2 were (1) that the game only lasted about 2 hours, which undoubtedly made it easier for the club to get to Pittsburgh, their next destination; and (2) the Cards only had to use one reliever. Other than that, it was a rough Game 2 for the club. Manager Mike Shildt served a one-game suspension (and was fined an undisclosed amount) for his role in the bench-clearing incident last night. That left bench coach Oliver Marmol to manage the club, but there wasn’t much he could have done today other than to make sure he left Oviedo out there for a significant amount of time.
