Hopefully Bush has settled down now, because he was getting rockedddd early.

3-1 pitch and Weeks pops out to second...ugh

I'm not sure I understand the problem here. Players don't get base hits every time up and Weeks has had a good game otherwise.

Ballgame....way to go Dave. As I said, Doug better not let that phone leave his ear until C.C. is a Brewer.

[trwi7]

And Bush costs himself a run by not backing up behind the plate. Lovely.

[owbc]

Grrrr....looks like we're on our way to another disappointing loss.

[pebadger]

I saw a similar play in a little league game last week.

 

And giving that error to Hart is ridiculous.

[bjkrautk]

bad luck bloopers compounded by a big mental mistake from the pitcher (not backing up the plate).

 

...This is the kind of Dave Bush outing that the near no-hitter covers up.

[bbaehman]

and then Bush hangs a curveball and this game is as good as over

[eanelson4]

What the hell is Bush doing. The pitcher HAS to back that play up...

[brewmann04]

Bush again shows he real stuff tonight,and the Road Warriors continue to play horrible.

[owbc]

In Bush's defense, how is his outing tonight more 'real' than his last two?

Thanks Dave for letting me go to bed early tonight!

[bbaehman]

i tell you now Bush lucky he goes 5, and this is against a team that has looked horrible.

Please mr Melvin find a starter and make a trade now

 

good call here brewmann

[eanelson4]

I'm fine if Bush is going to give up a few hits and a few runs. My problem lies with him not doing his job as a pitcher and backing up home plate when a runner is tagging. Thats a mental mistake and there is no excuse in this game for that.

[dlk9s]

the Road Warriors continue to play horrible.

If by "continue" you mean since yesterday, then I agree. Otherwise, I don't see how they have been playing horribly on this road trip. 3-3 going into tonight, coming up just short in two of the losses. And those six games were at the second best home team (at the time, I believe) in the league and at the hottest team in the majors. Hey, if the Brewers can go 5-5 on this trip, which will obviously be tough to do if they lose tonight, considering the pitchers they have to face, that's pretty solid.

 

[bobskube]

When is the last time the Brewers scored a run after the 5th inning? I believe the whole road trip has been early runs and then they decide not to score anymore.

[NYChez]

It's Gagne time!!!

[Brewcrewin07]

And of course the Cards won today and the Cubs are now up 3-0. This is why it absolutely kills you when you had a chance to gain more ground 3 times last week and couldn't capitalize. Just like that 3.5 GB in the WC again and 5.5 in the division.

[brewmann04]

Melvin needs to make a move Stat

Couldn't agree more

[moofnelson]

Man, I wish Bill Hall would just go away.

[SeriesFinale]

Pretty uninspired out there tonight

[eanelson4]

Yep. They look VERY flat...

[bbaehman]

Trade Hall ASAP
