This is a spot where it would be nice to have a power bat off the bench.

Like Gabe Gross

I was thinking that, but didn't feel like getting into an argument with people about it http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif.

Kendall's not exactly the guy I want hitting with the possibility of an inning-ending DP looming, but maybe he can bloop one over Brendan Ryan or something.

Nah, Russell Branyan or Brad Nelson.

I'm so cynical these days about the Brewers - I just thought now they can leave the bases loaded again. Sure would be nice to get some runs here...

[cheesecup22]

now its time for rickie to hit a double down the line!!

[thablingster]

That's a familiar sight, other than the fact it is usually us doing it, lol.

[Ennder]

I think we score 1 run in the 7th but leave a couple stranded.

 

I sure hope I was wrong here.

[cheesecup22]

ok that sucks

[BrewCrewForever]

Wow 2 runs on BB's.

[cheesecup22]

alright, come on brauny.. lets take the lead

[jjfanec]

way to lay off that junk cameron

[thablingster]

lol plate discipline. Walks work.

[crewcrazy]

How about clearing 'em all, here, Ryan?

[marquettefan13]

Like the walk especially after Cameron was down 0-2. Come on Braun!

[Ennder]

I don't think Brewer fans would be happy with Yost if this is how he ran his bullpen in the 7th.

[adambr2]

Molina completely fooled the umpire with the frame job, that was high.

[BrewCrewForever]

Damn, if that is on the sweet spot I think it would have been gone.

[adambr2]

Got 2, but can't help but be a little disappointed that we didn't get more.

[Brewcrewin07]

I will bet you can count on one hand the number of times in the last two years that Braunie has come up big in a late game situation like that.

[moofnelson]

Do the Brewers hit home runs anymore?

[BrewCrewForever]

Hopefully the pen can keep it 3-2.

[UndraftedFA]

I was surprised that Rickie swung at the 1st pitch after Kendal walked on 4 pitches. Probably wasn't the best approach.

[BrewCrewForever]

Come on Stetter, strikes. We can't have walks here.

[TSack27]

I was glad to be wrong on my guess for that inning. Seems like Gameday has similar low expectations - on their new video segment, they put up a highlight for "Hart walks home". A multi-run homer highlight sure would have been nice... shocking that only a year ago the Brewers were the leaders in homeruns with a similar lineup.

You could probably say the same of Fielder, Hart, Weeks, etc.
