All year long, there was talk both locally and nationally about the deficient starting pitching in Milwaukee. The Brewers didn’t go out and get that coveted “ace” starter at the July 31st trade deadline, but they did make an addition to their rotation on August 31st - veteran lefty Gio Gonzalez, who was in the midst of a down season with the Nationals. But the southpaw was able to step up in a big way after getting plopped in the middle of a pennant race, and that includes an outstanding outing today in a must-win game 162 for the Cream City Nine.
