<h3>Brewers host Giants, Bonds</h3>

San Francisco (39-54) at Milwaukee (54-41) 8:05 pm EDT

MILWAUKEE (Ticker) -- One has to wonder how much playing time SanFrancisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds will get against theMilwaukee Brewers this weekend.


As the teams kick off a three-game series Friday, Bonds findshimself a lot closer to Hank Aaron's all-time home run mark of755. The 22-year veteran homered twice in Thursday's loss tothe Chicago Cubs to up his career home run total to 753.

Bonds did not start any of the previous three games prior to his71st career multi-homer game Thursday. The Giants obviouslywould like to see Bonds tie and break the record at AT&T Park,leading to speculation that he'll get more rest this weekendbefore the team heads home to begin a six-game homestand Monday.

Bonds has six blasts and is a .351 (20-for-57) hitter for hiscareer at Miller Park.


Noah Lowry (9-7, 3.50 ERA) takes the mound for the Giants onFriday. After winning three consecutive starts, he lost hislast outing on Sunday against the Los Angeles Dodgers afterallowing five runs in 5 2/3 innings during a 5-3 defeat.

The lefthander lost his only appearance against the Brewers thisseason, giving up five runs in 5 2/3 innings during a 5-4 loss.

Jeff Suppan (8-8, 4.90) will get the start for the Brewers, whohave won five of six. The righthander is 5-2 with a 4.13 ERA innine starts at home this season.


In their first meeting with the Giants this season, the Brewersswept a three-game series here in June.
