why do we make ordinary pitchers look great?

[moofnelson]

Weeks. Sheesh.

[tristarscoop]

LOVE those not-so-much-a-check-swing strikes. Because we really should help opposing pitchers strike us out.

[brains and braun]

i'm gonna have to changemy name to brains and hart if this keeps up

[PrinceFielder28]

we are going to get shutout today

[tosabrewfan]

Is it bad when you start hoping your own players will get HBP just so they get someone on base.

[SeriesFinale]

Was that McClung's first scoreless inning since joining the Brewers?

 

Definitely not

No, because I was thinking the same thing last night in the 9th when Rickie was up. This is what he's good for, you know?

 

[RU Rah Rah]

Totally disconnected from game progress thus far, because of work. Sounds like I missed . . . nothing?

[SquirrelMaster]

Why don't we make EVERY pitcher in the NL look like a former Cy Young winner. *swan clap*

[thablingster]

I have only had the opportunity to listen to about 5 minutes of the game while I was on lunch, but Uecker sounded really glum and disappointed by how this game is progressing, especially while we were batting.

That would be 100% correct.

Free McClung?

 

[afeter]

another helping of crow please. OK stop relaxing and start pressing

Yeah I'm listening at work. He sounds like Harry Doyle from Major League when the Indians were stinking and he was boozing.

 

[PrinceFielder28]

well McClung is pitching well and had two scoreless innings...time for our offense to wake up and actually do something. Let's not wait until the end like last night.

[brewizard]

Let's go MOJO.

 

Clap clap clap!

[mikerollins]

great idea bringing mcpoop in here with this zone, ned. beautifull baseball mind

It's great that Seth McClung was able to overcome the inept manager that brought him into an impossible situation with this zone.

 

You know, when things go wrong, blame the manager.

 

When things go well, say so and so did it in spite of the mangaer.

 

Every move a manager makes is determined good or bad based on the performance of the PLAYERS.

[PrinceFielder28]

3 darn hits...that is just terrible. We beat up Santana though. I am very confused

[afeter]

everyone gets hot when prince homers.

[BrewCrewForever]

I wonder what the Brewers must feel like when they play like this if I feel this bad.

[PrinceFielder28]

well we really aren't making him work at all...3 pitches and two outs already

[JohnBriggs12]

52 AB's and counting for Prince.

[PrinceFielder28]

Can't be to bad because they were really fooling around in the dugout last night when i saw a few shots they showed

[BrewCrewForever]

And another base runner! Of course there are two outs.
