CINCINNATI -- The Milwaukee Brewers remain on pace to establish a new major league record for strikeouts in a season. But, manager Craig Counsell said how the strikeouts relate to run production is what hes most concerned about.Thats always going to be the most important number for me, how we get there to produce runs, said manager Craig Counsell. If we figure out a way to cut down our strikeouts to produce more runs. Thats how I look at the strikeout number.The Houston Astros struck out 1,535 times in 2013. The Brewers have fanned 1,374 times through 145 games, including nine punchouts in a 6-4 loss on Tuesday, keeping them on track for the all-time mark.We knew we had guys going into the season that were going to strike out a lot, said Counsell. We knew it was going to maybe be a high number, but how it relates to producing runs is really what were more concerned about.Right-hander Junior Guerra whos played a big role in the success the Brewers rotation has enjoyed in recent weeks, will start Wednesdays series finale against the Reds at Great American Ball Park.Over the past 21 games, Milwaukees starters have posted a major league best 2.91 ERA. Guerra has made 11 quality starts. Opponents are batting .216 against him.Wednesday will be his third start since coming off the disabled list where he was from August 8 to September 1 with right elbow inflammation. Guerra received no decision in his only start against the Reds on May 8 at Great American Ball Park when he allowed four earned runs in six innings in a 5-4 Brewers victory.Right-hander Tim Adleman will make his tenth career appearance and start for the Reds on Wednesday. Its his sixth start since being promoted from Triple-A on August 16. He last faced the Brewers on May 6, allowing one earned run in five innings in the Reds 5-1 win. Adleman might have more than nine starts under his belt had it not been for a strained left oblique which had him on the DL from May 19 to August 2. Adleman was promoted on August 16 to take Cody Reeds spot in the rotation.Adleman will have to contend with Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun who historically has hit well against the Reds, particularly in Cincinnati. Braun has 20 career homers at Great American Ball Park, his highest total in any ballpark.Cincinnati, which has won five of six against the Brewers and is 30-25 since the All-Star break, could be without a couple regulars on Wednesday in center fielder Billy Hamilton and shortstop Zack Cozart.Hamilton hasnt played since straining his left oblique during an at-bat on September 4. Cozart has missed three games with soreness in his right knee, which he had season-ending surgery on last season.Were really at the mercy of how his knee responds on a daily basis, manager Bryan Price said regarding Cozart. Id like to be more proactive. Its almost impossible to define when its going to get sore. Name Brand Shoes Cheap Online .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- IOC executive Patrick Hickey was discharged Thursday from a hospital and went straight to a Rio de Janeiro police station to be questioned about an Olympics ticket scalping investigation.The 71-year-old Irishman was arrested in a dawn raid Wednesday in the IOC hotel, but he immediately was hospitalized with chest pains.The Olympic Council of Ireland told The Associated Press that a member of its Rio Games delegation was allowed to go to Hickeys bedside to be informed of his decision to step aside temporarily from his IOC duties.A member of the IOCs ruling executive board, Hickey was in charge of the influential umbrella group for Europes Olympic bodies.Hickey is facing charges of conspiracy, ticket scalping and ambush marketing after allegations by Brazilian authorities that he was part of a plot to make $3 million by illegally selling Rio Games tickets above face value.Hickey was filmed Thursday being taken out of the hospital in a wheelchair.The Olympic Council of Ireland can confirm that Pat Hickey has been discharged from hospital and has been accompanied to a police station to complete a deposition, the Irish organization said in a statement.There was no indication from authorities how long Hickey will be held.The IOC told AP that it has stopped Hickeys $900-a-day per diem.IOC officials condemned Rio police for allowing a TV crew to accompany them as a naked Hickey was arrested in a hotel room.IOC member Dick Pound expressed surprise at the theater involved in the police actions.ddddddddddddIt makes it look like all sports administrators are corrupt. Theyre not, Pound told the AP. Theres a big risk for them if theyve got it wrong. ... Maybe its meant to be a deterrent for other ticket scalpers.Police said Irelands Olympic body helped transfer tickets to an unauthorized vendor who would set high fees and disguise the transaction as a hospitality package.Kevin James Mallon, from a British hospitality provider suspected in the plot, was arrested in Rio last week. Authorities have also issued warrants for four more executives at the company, THG.Some Irish tickets for the Olympics opening ceremony with a face value of $1,400 were sold for $8,000, police said.After describing the police raid on Hickeys hotel room as an affront, IOC Vice President John Coates defended his colleague.I know from Pat he had no idea that the representative from this company distributing these tickets was here distributing these tickets, so I look at the charges and really dont understand the basis of the indignity that he was put through, Coates said.Surely if they wanted to ascertain if there was any connection between him and the guy that was here, that should have been a discussion, he said. I think the members are all very worried about his well-being and the prospect of him being incarcerated.---AP Sports Writer Stephen Wilson contributed to this report. ' ' '
