The home stand continues with 4 games in 3 days against the San Francisco Velocity.
And things go pretty sideways for the Brewers as they drop all 4 games.
Abel Pennington takes the loss in game 1, pitching 6 1/3rd innings while allowing 4 runs on 7 hits in his first regular season start of the 1971 season. Catcher Kevin Curtis went 2 of 4 with his 3rd double of the season as he continues he good start at the plate. The Brewers lose 5-2.

Cheol-han Lee started game 2 and was not good. Lee gave up 7 runs on 12 hits in just 5 1/3rd innings pitched and drops to 1-2 with a 4.84 ERA. Jamison Bash goes 2 for 3 in the 7-2 loss.

In the Sunday doubleheader, rookie Steve Green started the first game and didn't pitch too poorly- giving up 3 runs on 7 hits in 7 innings pitched while striking out 6 and walking just 1, although also giving up 2 HR's- but the Brewers batters could only manage 1 run and the Brewers lost 3-1. Jamison Bash drives in the only Denver run with an 8th inning pinch-hit HR, his second of the season. Steve Green is now 0-1 with a 3.95 ERA.

Game 2 was Harry Lyerly's turn to try to stop the losing streak for the Brewers and he wasn't quite up to the challenge- allowing 4 runs on 11 hits in 7 innings pitched, striking out 5 and walking none. Lyerly falls to 2-1 with a 3.80 ERA and the Brewers fall 4-2 and get swept at home.
