Pitcher Carlos Villanueva–the starter turned reliever turned starter turned reliever turned starter–made his return to the rotation…as well as his case for returning to the rotation for ’08.
Villanueva allowed only one ER in 6 IP while fanning 6 en route to a 5-3 win. The victory moves the Crew within a ½ game of first following the Cubs loss to the Dodgers.
Coco Cordero earned his 40th save on the year, setting the Brewers’ record for most in a season.
Yovani Gallardo goes for the Crew in the rubber match Wednesday night.
