Soriano takes on Ben Sheets

Alfonso Soriano, and the defending National League Central Champions take on the Milwaukee Brewers, and their ace Ben Sheets on Monday. We are looking for a fast start for Alf and the Cubs this year.

Alfonso Career v. Brewers:

• 20 games
• 87 at bats
• 26 hits
• 16 runs
• 6 doubles
• 4 homeruns
• 9 rbi’s
• 5 walks
• 25 strikeouts
• .299 career average

So, as you can see, Alf has hit decent against Sheets, with 4 bombs, not bad. That is alot of strikeouts, but also, Sheets is a big time strikeout pitcher, so we will discount that stat. Time to improve upon these numbers Alf!

Career v. Sheets:

• 8 at bats
• 3 hits
• 1 double
• 1 walk
• 3 strikeouts
• .375 career average

So, no homeruns against Sheets? Monday changes that. Cubs win 7-5, Alfonso goes deep, on a 1-4 day. Good luck to Soriano and the Cubs.
