The Brewers finish their home-stand leading up to the All-Star break with a 3-game series against the 6th place Oklahoma City Diamond Kings.

And the Brewers head into the All-Star break on a high note with a 3-game sweep.

Game 1 saw newcomer Erik Sloan pitch a gem, getting the complete game victory, allowing just 1 run on 3 hits while striking out 12 and walking none in the 6-1 victory. Sloan improves to 2-0 with a 1.08 ERA for the Brewers and 10-3 with a 1.97 ERA overall on the season. Another good game for Mike Foster (.289/.313/.378), who went 2 for 4 and hit his first big league double. Chad Brown (.299/.325/.398) was also 2 for 4 and hit his 2nd HR of 1972.

In game 2 it was Harry Lyerly's turn to shine. Lyerly allowed no runs on just 3 hits in 7 1/3rd innings, striking out 11 and walking 3. Four relievers were pretty much perfect in preserving the shutout, as the Brewers won 4-0. Lyerly improves to 7-4 with a 3.04 ERA. Bobby Erbakan (.287/.359/.403), who has been scuffling a bit at the plate, was one of the hitting stars, going 2 for 4 and hitting his 19th double.

It required a 4-run rally late (bottom of the 8th) but the Brewers got the series sweep by winning the 3rd game 4-2. Daniel Torres pitched pretty well in the start- giving up 1 run on 7 hits in 6 innings pitched (4 K, 4 BB), lowering his ERA to 3.64 in the no-decision. Jose de los Santos got the win, improving to 4-5 with a 1.93 ERA. Miguel Solis got the save, his 6th, and dropped his ERA to 1.50. Rookie third baseman Mike Foster (.313/.333/.396) had another good day at the plate, going 2 for 3.
