Suppan shelled again
Colorado closes in on wild-card berth
The Milwaukee Brewers talked a lot about sending guys into the fall and winter on good notes and feeling positive about how they finish this season.Thursday's Game
That's what you get when your team falls out of the race early and continues to sputter toward the conclusion.
For right-hander Jeff Suppan, this was - maybe - his last chance to end his season on such a vibe.
The good news was he pitched a hair better than he did in his previous start.
The bad news is that previous start was absolutely horrendous, making somewhat mild improvement still not so great.
Following that last start against the Phillies - 4 1/3 innings, 12 hits, eight runs, seven earned - Suppan stepped on the mound at Coors Field for what would be his final start of the season Wednesday night.
When he stepped off, he had given up eight runs on 10 hits in six innings as he helped the Colorado Rockies to a 10-6 victory and a step closer to winning the National League wild card, which could happen Thursday with a Rockies victory or Atlanta Braves loss.
