4/27/07 Brewers (Capuano) @ Astros (Oswalt): 7:05 PM CDT

[COOOOP]

Your 2007 Milwaukee Brewers:

 

You get 7 innings to score

 

We get 9 (if we want.)

[AJAY]

WOW !!!

 

What a thrilling victory. It feels so great to beat their ace in their home park, especially considering we had nothing going offensively for most of the game.

 

This is just awesome.

 

BREWERS WIN !!!

any word on Braun yet?

D'franrick Cordernbowo, you complete me.

 

In all seriousness, it is a blessing to watch these two work together in a Milwaukee uniform.

FSN Houston showed a stat when Turnbow came in...the Brewers are one of 3 teams in the majors that are undefeated when leading after 7 innings. With tonight's win, they improve to 11-0 when leading after the 7th.

[Cooper]

As of right now, the Brewers have the best record in the NL. At worst, if the Braves win, they will share that record.

 

It's still early, but that's awfully nice to type out.

Great game, boys! Great game! I liked what I saw, I like what I saw!

 

I plan on saying to Sparky someday, but never got around to it.

1. Who bats 4th?

Right now, Menchkins.

 

And by the way, I hope I eat my words and Billy does well. But what I see, (and I have either seen or been there for every game but three this year) is that Billy is the most confused at the plate. Although Rickie's average stinks, his OBP and Slugging are solid and he is stealing bases at 100%.

 

Billy is getting picked off, striking out, and making defensive miscues far too much. He is the opposite of Damian Miller...the three games he sat, the Brewers won each one of them.

[AJAY]

I don't want to see Mench or Jenkins bat 4th. I like them lower in the order with less pressure on them. I still see them more as complimentary players to our main offense. They both are doing fine and I would hate to mess with it.

Only part of the game i was able to watch was the bottom of the 9th. Oh what a great 1/2 inning to watch.

[wisconsinfan47]

Today's game, IMO, was with the exception of the two baserunning errors, a perfect example of the all-around success this team is capable of having.

 

It had everything...Clutch hitting, solid starting pitching, lights out relief pitching, patient hitting against a dominant pitcher, solid defense, etc. etc. etc!

 

A win like this is more satisfying than a 11-0 blowout against a Vanderhurk-esque pitcher...It just showcased everything we've got. I love it.

[AJ Love]

Great win, on the road... gotta love it

I was driving over to a friend's house for some (hanging my head in shame here) non-Brewer-tv watching. As I was heading out, after seven, I was expecting to miss a CG shutout by Oswalt and a 1-0 Crew loss.

 

In driving, I was able to hear much of the sixth, seventh and eighth innings on, and it was very satisfying to hear the hitters being patient vs Oswalt, then getting two straight hits, a walk and some CLUTCH hitting by JJ Hardy.

 

This team is really pleasing me right now! They're very much getting it done all over the field, and they're not even hitting on all cylinders yet!

 

It's scary how good this team can be when Sheets gets into his groove, Rickie and Billy find their swings and we get a reliable arm in middle relief.

 

Even worse, imagine that lineup with Braun! I'm totally on the bandwagon here, folks.

[SeriesFinale]

A game like this one really gives me the sneaking suspicion that...oh man, I'm not even gonna say it.

[BrewCrewForever]

Great win! Feels good to be in 1st and 6 games over .500. I just really hope Billy can get it going soon, I dont like seeing that average so low. He did awesome against Cincy and Pitt and now has struggled. Maybe tonight he can get it going.

Told you we had a 100% chance of winninghttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
