Arriving at City mid-season, Wilkinsons work fixing Citys defence on the road to their semi-final last season was undervalued. Hes continuing the act with the Sky Blues, who have conceded just three times in eight games. But if anyone can breach Sydneys defence, its the free-scoring Fornaroli, who improved to seven goals this season on Sunday.Neil Kilkenny v Milos NinkovicNinkovic has been outstanding in Sydneys unbeaten run this season, which now stretches to 12 matches in the league and cup. The Serbian was unremarkable on Saturday night against Adelaide but remains on Johnny Warren Medal-winning pace for his role linking Sydneys hard-working defence with a deadly attack. Who better to negate his impact than Kilkenny, the fulcrum of Citys ambitious 3-2-4-1 formation. The former Socceroo is a combative ball-winner whose dedication to defensive duties allows Citys attackers to shine.Michael Jakobsen v BoboCitys Danish defender is John van t Schips go-to man down back, whether operating as the sole centre-back or alongside Connor Chapman, who is enduring an indifferent season. And so it falls to the Danish title winner to mark Sydneys Brazilian frontman. Bobo has showed his ability to score different sorts of goals and contribute along Sydneys dynamic attack, so Jakobsen best be on guard.

CINCINNATI -- The Great American Ball Park scoreboard often taunts opposing pitchers with ghosts and the message Walks will haunt.Tim Adleman didnt need the reminder Wednesday night.The Cincinnati rookie right-hander walked three Milwaukee batters and they all scored while the Brewers were building a 4-0 lead on their way to a 7-0 victory.I buried myself tonight, Adleman said. I was a bit too erratic, and that was a result of me being way too fine. They are good professional hitters. I dont want to take anything away from them, but I gave them too much credit. I should have attacked them instead trying to make too good of pitches. It is frustrating when I think I kind of beat myself out there.Scooter Gennett and Domingo Santana homered, Manny Pina drove in two runs and Chris Carter scored all three times he walked. The Brewers made the most of six hits and six walks to avoid a series sweep and snap Cincinnatis five-game winning streak, a run that matched the Reds season high.We walked six guys and five scored, Reds manager Bryan Price said. I think we hit more balls on the screws than they did but they took advantage of walks.The shutout was the second of the series between the NL Central rivals.

The two runners he drove in ahead of him both reached on walks.Adleman allowed three hits and four runs with three walks and four strikeouts in five innings to slip to 0-3 over his last four starts.Price believes Adleman was better than his numbers.You look at his body of work, Price said. He only has 51 innings, so its hard to tell, but take the second inning. He had two walks then soft contact, soft contact and they had two runs.After the home run by Gennett we were never able to get back in the game.MOUND ARMYRHP Abel De Los Santos became in the sixth inning the franchise-record 31st pitcher used by the Reds this season.
