Things to look for:
1. Can the Brewers look past Sunday’s humiliating loss, but not look past the Reds to the upcoming four games in Philly?
2. Does skipper Ned Yost either start a 2nd or 3rd left-handed bat to join Prince Fielder or go to lefties off the bench early to counter the Reds’ three strong right-handed starters that the Brewers will be facing?
3. In their last series against the Reds this year, can the Brewers break the 6-6 series tie on the season and finish at least 8-7 against the Reds for ’08 and build momentum heading into Philly?
