6/24/08 Brewers (Bush) at Braves (Morton): 6:00 PM CDT

Y'know,... I was thinking a couple of starts ago that all Bushie had to do was give up 2 earned runs in the next 15 innings and he'd drop his ERA under 5.

[OOOverbay]

Congratulations Mr. Bush. Shouse got lucky there, but nothing wrong with that.

[bigredrobbo]

Nice DP Prince. Now, c'mon Brewers, let's get at least one more run so that Shousie can come back out and we can give Torres another night off.

[TauPentaRei]

Dear Ned,

 

I am still on vacation; let someone else have this one.

 

Yours,

Sal

The other amazing thing is that assuming we finish up the win, the Brewers record in their last 33 games will be 23-10. A win tomorrow matches last year's start--something that many people considered to be a fluke just a few weeks ago.

[razzzorsharp]

Just because it is a save situation doesn't mean we would have to use Torres. I am sure you could pick just about anyone to put up 2 ER or less in an inning.

[bigredrobbo]

Blaine? That's not a name, it's a domestic appliance!

[zzzmanwitz]

Nice observation obsessed... never thought of that.

Somewhere a mop top under a Nashville Sounds cap is laughing.

 

[zzzmanwitz]

I think even riske could get 3 outs with a 3 run lead........

Ruh roh

[owbc]

Can Torres get 3 outs with a 3-run lead?

[trwi7]

This game isn't so cool anymore. Come on Sal, shut it down!

[zzzmanwitz]

ugh.... i still wish they would have put riske in.

[olsonnet]

C'mon Torres, get it done. This would be a devastating loss.

[sargennm]

All day i was trying not to think about how Torres hasn't blown a save since taking over and how that will have to end at some point. Ugh.

[Bruce Ciskie]

I'd much prefer that the first blown save come in a game where Torres starts with a one-run lead in the TOP of the ninth. This is too stressful.

 

Apparently, this pitching staff can't just let Bush pitch well.

[owbc]

Time to warm someone up...fast.

[zzzmanwitz]

pick it up torres. We need to put this game away.

[bucks2281]

Ugh...I'm being reminded of Opening Day

[zzzmanwitz]

that was a pretty amazing play by torres.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Ugh...I'm being reminded of Opening Day

 

No Fukudome here.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Wow is the tomahawk chop obnoxious.

 

Even if he blows it, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

[brains and braun]

We get a great performance from Bush and they commit four errors. If we lose, I'm a Royals fan.

[Yeti73]

Is anyone warming?
