6/20/08 Orioles (Liz) at Brewers (Suppan): 7:05 PM CDT

Two walks in a game for Braun? Is the sky falling?

He's been reading Brewerfan and wants to prove the naysayers wrong.

 

[kiwi brewer]

for some reason i still feel good about this game.

 

i think we turn the corner tonight in the last three innings.

[iluvlamp]

That may be the inning that kills. So many walks and no runs. I mean come on!

[Trowekamp]

This has got a Hart or Branyan bomb in the bottom of the 9th to win it written all over it as long as the bullpen can shut down the Orioles the last 3 innings..

[eanelson4]

This team continues to prove that it cannot manufacture runs consistently. You live by the sword and die by the sword I guess.

[davemakovec]

That may be the inning that kills. So many walks and no runs. I mean come on!

I totally spaced on the fact that we loaded the bases without swinging the bat. Then, of course, Prince has to swing at ball 2 and ball 3 before grounding out weakly.

[Trowekamp]

I don't think the universe can survive the Brewers taking 8 walks and actually losing after we have been complaining for years they need to be more patient.

[ELCABALLO45]

How many LOB do we have so far?

[kiwi brewer]

that last prince AB reminded me of one of my least favorite songs i have ever heard in my life. maybe you'll agree... here are the genius late 60's acid-driven lyrics...

 

I was just thinking about the way it's supposed to be,

I'll eat the plants and the fruit from the trees,

And I'll live on vegetables and I'll grow on seeds,

But I don't eat animals and they don't eat me,

Oh no, I don't eat animals 'cause I love them, you see,

I don't eat animals, I want nothing dead in me.

 

I don't eat white flour, white sugar makes you rot,

Oh, white could be beautiful but mostly it's not.

A little bit of whole meal, some raisins and cheese,

But I don't eat animals and they don't eat me.

Oh no, I don't eat animals 'cause I love them, you see,

I don't eat animals, I want nothing dead in me.

 

A little bit of whole meal, some raisins and cheese,

I'll eat the plants and the fruit from the trees,

And I'll live on vegetables and I'll grow on seeds,

But I won't eat animals and they won't eat me,

Oh no, I'll live on life, I want nothing dead in me,

You know I'll become life and my life will become me,

You know I'll live on life and my life will live on me.

 

 

oh it's by Melanie if you want to order the box set after the game. while you are there you may as well order the Yanni box set, too.

[davemakovec]

Corey Hart is slumping madly. He's due.

[Brewcrewin07]

Well, if Walker stays in(which I assume he will) do you leave Russell in to face him or bring in Billy to PH?? Call me nuts because he's been so bad lately, but if Billy gets the chance to PH tonight with a runner or runners on, he is going to be a hero. This is just that kind of game.

[ELCABALLO45]

Corey is slumping

[JET15]

Can you imagine if we go extra innings? This game already seems long

[ELCABALLO45]

Branyan doesn't look lost against a lefty, that's a good sign

[Trowekamp]

Corey Hart is slumping madly. He's due.

The weird thing is he is going the other way and not pulling the ball like you would expect from someone whis is scuffling..

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Kick Save!

[JET15]

Wa-naw-kee? lol, hey, that's the world's only... Wa-nuh-kee

[iluvlamp]

Corey Hart is slumping madly. He's due.

Reminds of a Cake song.

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Babe Huff

[iluvlamp]

Junk. Huff is beating you. Huff. Baseball makes me question my existence at times.

[Trowekamp]

Still good outing by Villy.. good job by the bullpen to keep the Brewers in the game 6 1/3 2R 0BB 6K

[ELCABALLO45]

Geez another walk

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Still good outing by Villy.. good job by the bullpen to keep the Brewers in the game 6 1/3 2R 0BB 6K

Qualifies as a quality start by the pen

[davemakovec]

"Despite drawing ten walks, Brewers still fall to Aubrey Huff."

[ELCABALLO45]

I would love to watch Pat Neshek and Bradford play catch
