The Diamond Kings come to Denver for a 4-game set, including a Sunday doubleheader.
And the suddenly red-hot Brewers sweep them and now have a 5-game winning streak and have won 7 of the 9 game they have played in May.

In game 1 the Brewers give Harry Lyerly plenty of run support while he pitches his best game of the season thus far, going the distance while giving up 1 run (on a 2nd inning solo HR) while striking out 10, walking 3, and giving up just 4 hits. The Brewers score 4 times in the 1st and another 4 in the 3rd and easily win 9-1. Lyerly improves to 4-1 with a 2.97 ERA in his first 5 starts of 1971. Ryan Rodgers (.338/.411/.438) is starting to heat up and goes 3 for 4 with 3 RBI and his first triple of 1971. Rookie utility infielder Danny Roman (.278/.350/.500) hits the lone HR for the Brewers, his first WPK round-tripper.

Daniel Torres gets the win in game 2 as he improves to 3-1 with a 1.78 ERA. Torres works 8 1/3rd, allowing 2 runs on 10 hits, striking out 5 and walking just 2. Andrew Kennedy (.318/.338/.500) has another great game at the plate, going 3 for 3, hitting both his first double and first triple of the season. Antonio Puente (.303/.378/.697) goes 3 for 4 with 4 RBI, hitting his 7th HR of the season. The Brewers win 6-3.

Puente stays hot in the first game of the Sunday doubleheader, going 2 for 4 with 3 RBI and hitting HR #8, an 8th inning blast that erased a 3-2 deficit and gave the Brewers a 5-3 victory. Adam Getchell got the start for Denver and pitched 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, striking out 7 and walking 4.

Top Brewers prospect, Steve Green, shines in the final game of the series, tossing 7 scoreless innings, giving up 7 hits while striking out 11 and walking not one Oklahoma City batter. The Brewers win 4-0 and Green improves to 2-1 with a 1.88 ERA. Andrew Kennedy and Danny Roman once again shine- Kennedy going 2 for 4 in the game and Roman collecting a 2-run pinch-hit triple in the 8th inning.

With the sweep the Brewers are now 14-9, tied with Phoenix for 2nd place, 1/2 game behind the San Francisco Velocity.
