5/16/07 Brewers (Suppan) @ Phillies (Hamels): 6:05 PM CDT

[tomwopat]

I have a good feeling about this game. And I've had a bad feeling about the last two games. My prediction: 6-4, Hart HR, Soup goes 7, Turnbow with a clean hold.

 

edit: so it actually makes sense

[JohnBriggs12]

Suppan and Sheets the next two games.

 

This is where they earn those contracts.

 

Corey Hart: 68 AB's and counting since last home run. Can I suggest seeing a barber?

 

Kevin Mench: 49 AB's and counting since last home run.

 

How do you big guys show your faces around J.J. Hardy?

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

after the past few games i would guess that the brewers need some.........

"My prediction: 6-4, Hart HR, Soup goes 7, Turnbow with a clean hold."

 

Turnbow has taken the loss on back to back nights. He'd better not get in the game tonight - particularly if we're holding a slim lead in the 8th inning. A fourth straight loss would be depressing enough without also having to read the story about Turnbow committing suicide.

The Brewers could use a nice Rain Out tonght.

 

but If Suppan pitches like he did Friday in New York oh Boy no telling how many HR he will give up tonight.

[Brewers77]

Wow he is 5-3 with a 3 era and gave up 4 last time out and now we talk like he is going to get lit up the next start. Man, we are tough to please and expectation are really getting out of hand. So is 2 runs or less a quality start now?

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

our offense is fine

[brewcrew00]

So what do you think, are they gonna get this game in?

[sheetswannabe]

Those look like some nasty storms. I bet the rain stops around 9 est. I get out of work at 10, sign me up for a 10pm cst start!

I hope that Mench and Hart can break out of their little funks today.

[Ennder]

Hamels change up largely neutralizes the righty advantage against him so I'm not as enthusiastic about the all righty lineup as I usually am against him. Lets hope for an early lead and a rainout after 5 http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif .

[Schlitz001]

From the weather channel it looks like the rain is supposed to keep up for most of the night, does anyone have information otherwise?

[brewcrew00]

It was my understanding that the rain would let up and eventually stop? Maybe around 8 o'clock?

[AJ Love]

Weather.com says a 70-80% chance of rain until 10pm EST, then a 30% chance of rain from 10pm to 1am. Doesn't sound promising:

[crewcrazy]

Well, weather.com's hourly forecast is saying the thunderstorms will stop at around 9 PM ET, but there will still be a few showers until Midnight ET. Hopefully there's a few windows to get a game in.

 

If not, I'm sure we'll find a way to blame Turnbow. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Edit: AJ Love beat me to it.

[bucks2281]

Can we have a rain update Ann? Please?

[1992casey]

Ann Carroll just referred to Ned Youst twice before correcting herself.

[brewcrew00]

It could just be delayed an hour or two, and then get the game in, even if it's late for east coasties.

[Time for a Miller]

Can we please prounounce the managers name right Ann. Oh my goodness, she is brutal. Youst, is upset and Youst walks out of the dugout, uh Yost, Yost approaches the umpire. Brewers live is nice, but that was funny.

[bucks2281]

Ann Carroll said, "The Brewers are the first team to begin interleague play."

 

What?

[1992casey]

I finally figured out what annoys me most about Ann. She all to frequently drags out words like:

 

sooooooo

 

onnnnnnnn

 

Suppaaaaaaan

[BrewCrewForever]

Hmmm SI was in to talk with Prince and JJ and a photo spread. Wonder if its for the cover or just inside the mag.

[RayKingsForemanGrill]

I'm feeling a Brewers win tonight... with Ned doing cartwheels instead of swearing spins tonight.... man that was awesome...

[crewcrazy]

Here's a little perspective -- even after losing three straight, the Brewers are still tied for the best record in the NL, and they're still at .500 on the road.
