<h3>Diamondbacks' Webb looks to extend scoreless streak</h3>

<div class="pre">Milwaukee (64-61) at Arizona (71-55) 9:40 pm EDT</div>

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- Brandon Webb looks to add the MilwaukeeBrewers to his recent list of clubs who finished the gamewithout someone crossing home plate.


Webb tries to extend his scoreless streak with a potentialfourth straight shutout when the Arizona Diamondbacks host theBrewers in the finale of a three-game series on Wednesday.

The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner, Webb (13-8,2.63 ERA) tossed a two-hitter for his third consecutive shutoutin a 4-0 at the Atlanta Braves on Friday. That outing pushed hisscoreless streak to 42 innings.


The ace righthander is 18 innings away from snapping OrelHershiser's major league record of 59 straight frames without arun set in 1988.


"There is a lot going on with his start but the most importantthing is getting a win," Arizona manager Bob Melvin said. "Thatis what his focus will be going into the game. We have beenplaying pretty good up until this point but we have lost threein a row and that is why you have guys like Brandon. That iswhy you have an ace."


Milwaukee's Jeff Suppan (8-10, 4.89) gets the call with thehopes of picking up his first win since June 22. In his lastouting, Suppan was a victim of four errors in an 8-4 loss toCincinnati.


The 32-year-old righthander has failed go at least six inningsin 10 of his last 14 starts after doing so through his first 12outings.


On Tuesday, Gabe Gross recorded his second career grand slam tohelp the Brewers take the first two games of the series with a7-4 win.
