And just when he is getting hot Antonio Puente suffers a fractured cheek bone (HBP) and is expected to be out for 6 weeks.
With Puente going to the DL it does mean that Ruben Souffront gets brought up from AAA to rejoin the team, having of course put up impressive numbers down at Chester (.396/.442/.586). The team hopes that he has re-found his hitting stroke as they will need all the offense they can get in Puente's absence.
(Meanwhile, the Brewers took game 1 of a 3-game series in Charlotte behind solid pitching from Daniel Torres (4-2, 2.48) and with some help from yet another HR off the bat of Puente- his 15th of the season. They then dropped the second game 5-3 when Harry Lyerly did not have his best stuff (8 IP, 5 R, 10 H, 5 K, 4 BB, but no HR's allowed) and he dropped to 7-4 with a 3.03 ERA for the 1970 season.)
