4/18/08 Brewers (Sheets) at Reds (Arroyo): 6:10 PM CDT

As the count goes to 2-2 and broadcasters call it "even", i feel like i should bring this up. Does anyone else have a problem with a 2-2, or 1-1 count called even? I know, mathematically, it is even. But this is baseball. It takes 4 balls for a walk and 3 strikes for a strikeout. So in my opinion, 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2 are even. This has bothered me for as long as i can remember...

That sir made me spit my coke a little bit.

Isn't the IGT much more entertaining and enjoyable with a 5-0 lead and nobody from last July/August bullpen pitching.

Well, unless we get Stettered.

 

 

[And That]

A couple of those pitches to Dunn didn't miss by much. Still, gotta throw strikes, Mitch.

[chadomac]

I am nervous.

[steve267268]

Okay... those first two pitches to Dunn missed where??? Especially coming from a lefty that seems to jump towards first base when he releases.

[Blazer25]

Soreness and tightness in his right tricep

Bad news. This can be a sign of problems with the UCL (Tommy John ligament).

 

Lets hope Sheets is ok.

[ELCABALLO45]

Send him back down

[trwi7]

Why the hell is Stetter in for an inning?

[kiwi brewer]

yost taking a page from larussa throwing a youngster to the wolves. i liked it. but now i'm nervous.

 

walks two? get him out now.

Those ones call inside to Encarcion were questionable after the one to Braun for strike 3 ..

[chadomac]

This is not good at all.

[steve267268]

Oh these reds broadcasters are just awful...

 

First Stetter has OBVIOUS control problems after walking Dunn and going 2-1 to the next guy when some of those pitches were VERY borderline.

 

Now they are trying to say it is nerves because he is just in AWE over the fact that he's pitching in GAB against the one and only Cincinnati Reds..

 

give me a break..

[iluvlamp]

Man Blazer....now I am bumming just a bit.

[kiwi brewer]

it's never easy. ever.

[trwi7]

Ned doesn't realize what a LOOGY is or how to use one.

[giffted1]

Stetter has already walked more guys in the majors this year than he had in AAA.

[Brewtacular]

helluva start by stetter

[kiwi brewer]

if he strikes out the side i am streaking down to the convenience store to grab a coors party ball.

[iluvlamp]

I am angry now.

[steve267268]

Okay, it's no longer cute. I like Stetter but he needs to come out after this lefty...

[And That]

Leaving Stetter in isn't a big deal with a five run lead and all the lefty bats in the lineup.

[chadomac]

okay i'm starting to become more relaxed.

[GormanHarvey]

if he strikes out the side i am streaking down to the convenience store to grab a coors party ball.

 

You better start undressing...

 

Edit: or not

[And That]

If Stetter hadn't gotten squeezed on Dunn, the inning would be over.
