1,082 Sheets to the Wind
Babes Love Baseball — ... St. Louis Cardinals. The 29-year-old righty surpassed Brewers great Ted Higuera with his 1,082nd career strikeout in his eighth season with the club, striking out Aaron Miles before getting Pujols to swing and miss. Rather retributive, as Prince Albert has a career .403 career average against Sheets. Sheets, a three-time All-Star, is 4-0 with a 2.29 ERA for the Beermakers this season, pretty much carrying their entire pitching staff. [MLB.com] | [Brewers Blog] | [Brewers Bar]
