5/9/08 Cardinals (Wellemeyer) at Brewers (Parra): 7:05 PM CDT

[BrewCrewForever]

Free Jeff Weaver, Chris Narveson, Mark DiFelice, Russell Branyan and Brad Nelson.

 

Say good-bye to Villanueva, Parra, Bush, Gwynn and Weeks.

 

This is the key to not losing in the same repetitive manner. At least we might find new ways to lose... or win?

I agree 100%. And That, great post.

Corey Hart isn't a leadoff hitter, just like Alfonso Soriano isn't a leadoff hitter. Batting him leadoff would neglect his ability to drive in runs, which is something we lack. Also, since he is the only Brewers hitting well, why would we mess with his mentality by moving him into a different spot?

 

I agree with most of it, But Also Soriano can't draw a walk either which Hart Can.

Over/under on Cardinals 2-out RBI this inning?

Over/under on Cardinals 2-out RBI this inning?

I've got a bad feeling about a Pujols 2-out HR.

 

[BrewCrewForever]

WOW! A Brewers pitcher made it out of the 5th inning. Amazing, Parra now retired 9 in a row. Props to Manny.

[owbc]

Parra made it to the 6th inning!!! Congrats, Manny, welcome to the second-half of a baseball game :-)

[BrewCrewForever]

And now they will pinch hit for him?

[Fatter than Joey]

TGJ time!

St. Louis is throwing the game at us.

Question: How many Cardinals does it take to make an error?

 

Answer: three

[crewcrazy]

Knocked the hell out of that one, Slappy. Luckily the Cards are fielding like the Brewers tonight.

[moofnelson]

Did the Cardinals send their second string defense to Milwaukee?

[crewcrazy]

And that'd be why hit and runs are incredibly stupid. Especially against a Molina brother.

[endaround]

Ahh the Hit and Run!

[moofnelson]

Why run on Molina?

[hawing]

St. Louis is throwing the game at us.

Gah, just like Robin19 predicted in one of those Ned threads earlier today!

[Fatter than Joey]

quit throwing your bat now Kendall

 

Stupid H&R Yost

[crewcrazy]

And Tony Gwynn, Jr. scores from first on the Weeks double.

 

...oh, wait. That's right. Ned's genius hit and run was foiled.

[moofnelson]

Nice recovery by Parra tonight. Let's hope he brings some of that same stuff into his next outing.

 

 

Do all teams play Weeks 200 feet of the left field line, or just the Cards?

[pebadger]

Have the Brewers run themselves out of more runs in the last 10 days than they've actually scored? If you take out the Sunday game at Houston, I think this may be the case.

[BrewCrewForever]

Weeks finally gets a good hit and then Cameron pops up on 2-0. Jeez.

[crewcrazy]

New drinking game -- take a shot every time a Brewer pops up to the shallow OF with a runner in scoring position.

You'd be an alcoholic within a week.

Possible Yosting tonight?

[ELCABALLO45]

Does anyone kinda wish Yost didn't PH Parra?

 

And Nice throw Hardy
