5/2/08 Brewers (Villanueva) at Astros (Oswalt): 7:05 PM CDT

It's hard to believe that this is the same team that lead the league in HRs last year, and they added more power to the line-up.

[Kurt]

You guys see Roy's lifetime record against the Reds? 19-1 with a 2.46 ERA...... damn. Have you ever seen a more dominating win-loss record against one team?

[dlk9s]

Do the Brewers leave the bases loaded more than the average team?

Yes, but sample size is a bit of an issue.

League averages: BA = .246, OPS = .655

Brewers: BA = .200, OPS = .600 (only 21 PA/15 AB)

You'd think that a veteran like Oswalt would know where fair territory is in the infield.

[zurch1818]

It seemed all Hill could do was throw balls. That run was courtesy of no hits.

I knew I'd get a good answer here at BF.net

 

[adambr2]

Brian - Would you please shut up about how many in a row Villanueva has retired after EVERY SINGLE at-bat? Thanks.

[brewers19]

Gameday made that pitch look two feet off the outside of the plate. Who in the world would swing at such a pitch with two strikes?

[cnycerveceros]

Brian is annoying, isn't he.

[cnycerveceros]

I saw the Padres broadcast a few times this week, Matt Vasgurgen was a good play by play guy

[Blancofan1]

yay! Mike Cameron, starts to make up for the 0-5 yesterday

[brewers19]

Offense is picking up the slack finally.

 

Nice job Cameron.

[trwi7]

CAMERON!!!!!!!

[Blancofan1]

My favorite part about Cameron jacking one was Braun trying to sneak a bunt in on the next pitch

[adambr2]

Career HR #1 for Cameron as a Brewer! Always nice to take advantage of the Astros' short porch.

[Blancofan1]

Prince feely spry today? I thought for sure he was going to try and stretch that to a double

[trwi7]

Great baserunning by Prince!

[MillerParkSouth]

adventures on the base paths today for Prince!

[adambr2]

I'm surprised Sveum wasn't rotating the arm at 3rd base screaming, "Keep going, Prince!!! Keep going!!!"

[Blancofan1]

Ok JJ, this would be a really good time to get a hit. You only get so many chances with the bases loaded in a game, and I think 2 is a whole lot for one night

[MillerParkSouth]

ok JJ, lets do something with them chucked this time.

 

 

edit: jeez, i guess that works!

[adambr2]

If Tejada fields that cleanly, I think they've got Prince dead at home on the force.

[trwi7]

Yes, Pence hasn't touched a breaking ball so far today so what do we do with two strikes? Elevate a fastball. Brilliant strategy.

[adambr2]

Some really bad 2 strike pitches. Villy is falling apart here in the 5th, but he shouldn't be close to tiring.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Ugh. Did someone tell Villy it was the sixth inning?
