BREWERS STRIKE OUT: The Milwaukee Brewers struck out a major league-record 1,399 times last season, or 8.64 times a game.

They've whiffed 58 times in five games this season for an 11.6 clip.

But Milwaukee manager Davey Lopes isn't troubled over the plethora of punchouts because 29 of them came over the weekend against Arizona aces Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling.

Schilling followed Johnson's 12-strikeout performance Saturday night with a career-best 17 strikeouts Sunday as he tossed his second career one-hitter in a 2-0 Diamondbacks victory.

Over the first week of the season, Johnson and Schilling have combined to get all four of Arizona's victories while walking six, striking out 46 and surrendering one earned run in 32 innings for a minuscule 0.28 ERA.
