2 very solid starts in a row from Cappy. Great to see the guy stepping up, especially with Sheeter down.

[crossface21]

How bout a 2 HR game for Braun. That'd be nice.

[rluzinski]

How many fly balls have been hit to the warning track in this game?

[jhart05]

Prince.

 

Get one and take it outtta' here.

[crossface21]

Here we go! Come on!! Lets get a hit right here Johnny!!

[bucks2281]

Ugh, of course the "rally" had to happen with two outs.

[jaybird2001wi]

Way to go Estrada. What a team player he is. Now I know why Yost bats him fifth.

[Nearsighted Views]

Ugh...

[adambr2]

Thanks for that entirely usless piece of clutch hitting, Johnny.

[rluzinski]

I look forward to Hall coming back and manning the 5 hole.

[jaybird2001wi]

Why do I get the sudden urge to yell at the TV screen after Estrada sorry excuse for a ground ball.

Johnny Estrada's clutch hitting is about as reliable as a piece of two-ply toilet paper sucking up the Mississippi River.

[adambr2]

So, Turnbow. I seem to recall Dunn hitting a walkoff off him last year.

[Brewcrewin07]

Uh oh, don't like this matchup of Turnbow-Dunn here. I know he's pitched a lot here recently, but why not Shouse for Dunn??

[bobskube]

Horrible, just horrible that TBow is in this situation.

[crossface21]

This is the first time I have a bad feeling about tonight.

[bobskube]

i have a feeling of a TBow bobblehead execution tonight.

[mikevan1818]

No matter what happens: Standing-O for Cappy from me!

[jaybird2001wi]

TBow sits Dunn down. Wow, amazing! Two more outs to go and then we can get base runners on and kill yet another rally with our tremendous clutch hitting.

[rluzinski]

Turnbow made Dunn look very silly. I especially like seeing that off speed pitch for a strike looking. He looks great right now (knock on wood).

[PeaveyFury]

It's similar to flipping heads 5 out of 7 times and thinking that's evidence that the coin might not flip 50/50.

 

That's a very poor analogy, as the best hitters aren't going to get a hit 50% of the time.

 

Put it this way Russ: Mench is 5 for 7 against Harang with, say, runners at the corners in a 1-1 game in the 9th, while Estrada is 1 for 7 in his career vs. Harang. You're telling me you wouldn't prefer for Mench to hit there?

 

Do you have any ACTUAL proof that hitter vs pitcher individual match ups are worthless?

 

Until you show something to actually back that up, it's simply your opinion, and not fact.

[giffted1]

Turnbow is getting the breaking ball over for strikes...I'm not worried.

[mikevan1818]

whats harangs PC at? Will he come out in the 10th if we get there?

[bucks2281]

Good work by Turnbow...his stuff looked electric tonight.

[bobskube]

I'm very glad I was wrong about TBow there.

[uwbufu24]

Harang has 107 pitches so hopefully he is done (?)
