If this was a movie, Brewers pitcher Chris Capuano would have won last night's game. Maybe even thrown a no-no. But alas, it was real life. Still a good story though.
Capuano last pitched in a big league game on September 28, 2007. Nearly three full years between starts. During that time he had his second Tommy John surgery.
He battled the Marlins last night in Florida and ended up taking the loss. The lefty went 3 2/3 innings allowing 3 runs and 7 hits while striking out 4 and walking 1. Not bad, not great and not Hollywood.
Here's an incredible statistic. The Brewers have lost the last 19 starts made by Capuano. This is amazing to me since Capuano at one time was one of the emerging pitchers in the game in 2005 (18 wins) until derailed by injuries.
I hope Capuano stays healthy and Milwaukee finally wins a game he pitches.
