MILWAUKEE -- Brewers right-hander Yovani Gallardo will make his final start of the season on Sunday to keep his innings down.

Gallardo (12-12) leads Milwaukee with 180 2/3 innings over 29 starts in his first full year of action.

Brewers manager Ken Macha said Friday night that Gallardo was included in the decision-making process and that the 23-year-old will be on a pitch count.

"We have a number in mind, but that can be adjusted," Macha said.

Gallardo leads the team with 91 walks and 197 strikeouts.
