The Brewers batted around for 25 hits to record the first 20-0 game since 1900, and the fifth largest shutout in the Major League.

It was the fourth straight win for the Brewers (8-7) who exploded to torture six Pittsburgh (7-8) pitchers.
Randy Wolf pitched six scoreless innings to get the win for Milwaukee while Jim Edmonds finished with four hits and three RBIs and Prince Fielder also added three RBIs.
