And people wonder why Brewer fans have an irrational fear of the Pirates at PNC park.

[parkside21]

Come on Billy.....

[patrickgpe]

i was worried it was sheets that got hurt since gameday just says injury delay. what happened.

[crewcrazy]

Haha...no wonder JP and Ueck couldn't say what was on his shirt on the radio. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

 

Edit: For those wondering, Doumit hit a HR to dead center, Hall climbed the wall thinking he had a shot at it, and when he came down, Ueck said he landed almost on his heel and looked like he rolled an ankle. Hall was able to stand up himself but needed help walking off the field. Ueck said Hall's right shoe was open, which probably means it's starting to swell already. Doesn't sound good...hopefully it's just a sprain and not a break.

time to call nashville

[mikevan1818]

Ok, so I'm at work and people are saying that Billy got hurt. Then someone says . . .

Makes me feel like he's laying in center field on the brink of death and people trying to get him to pull through.

 

Can someone explain what happened?

[bucks2281]

Looks like Billy is going to the DL.

[Oldcity]

Sounds like a guaranteed trip to the DL for Hall.

[craigharmann]

From what Uke is saying...not good. Hopefully at worst it's a sprain...let's keep our fingers crossed!

[jjgott]

Hall jumped for the homerun ball and came down on his foot funny and it looked like he rolled his ankle. I've seen the injury alot in the NBA, when people come down awkwardly after a rebound or something like that.

[jflick1215]

Watching him walk off on MLB TV, it doesn't look all that terrible. But, of course, you never know with tendons and stuff like that. I hate, hate, hate Pittsburgh. Yuck.

[CportBadger]

If he's on his way to the DL is Gwynn the everyday CF?

[RyDogg66]

ankle/foot injury. Could just be a sprain (misses the Nationals series and comes back after AS break, or could be a lot worse. Lets hope he just misses the weekend.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Hall tried using the wall to get a bit higher to catch the HR that was hit, once he didn't catch the ball he realized he was about 6 feet off the ground - he landed very hard on the ground, seemingly jamming his right leg into the ground - he was able to put some weight on his leg walking off the field, but he had a trainer on either side of him helping him off.

 

best case scenario, he jammed his ankle and has a mild sprain - worst case is that he did something to his knee. it did appear that the trainers were looking at only his ankle though

 

-----------------

[parkside21]

With the All-Star break coming up, I would doubt a trip to the DL would be necessary. If he needs a few days off, Gross just starts in center....no need to bring up Gwynn if it's just an ankle sprain, let's hope anyways.

[Klements Bratwurst]

This place is indeed the house of horrors.

 

Kenny Lofton anyone???

[crewcrazy]

Mench moves to right, Jenkins subbed in for Hall and moves to left, Hart into center for those wondering what the OF looks like now.

and I thought this day was off to a bad start...

 

 

Btw... they brought Jenkins into left, moved mench to right, and put Hart in center. first time for corey in center this year i believe.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

not sure if its been mentioned before but mlb gameday audio is free through july 14.

[JohnBriggs12]

Having had first hand knowledge of ankle sprains, I wouldn't get too worked up if it starts to swell up. That's happened to me several times, and I was back playing full tilt basketball within a week.

 

With the All Star break coming, I wouldn't be so sure they DL him.

 

But I'm sure they'll X-Ray and MRI it to check the severity.

[Fear The Chorizo]

That was a great offensive 1/2 inning for the Brewers...Yeesh

This injury doesn't sound overly serious, but we all remember what happened to J.J. last season. Hopefully our luck this season is brighter.
