Sheeter is definitely making a case to start the ASG tonight.

 

I'd like to see him make a run at 18 K again.

[Oldcity]

Yeah I hope he isn't in the game long enough to get those 18 Ks. Pitch count's fairly high.

 

But wow, he's dealing.

Unless he K's everyone on three pitches, it's not going to happen.

 

[crewcrazy]

69 pitches through 4 innings...he desperately needs a nice sub-10 pitch inning.

[steve267268]

This is just Ben's way of explaining that he is still the Ace on this team.

[dlk9s]

Anyone else getting little nervous that we're only up 1-0 on Glendon Rusch?

[crewcrazy]

KKKKKKKKKK. 75 pitches.

[EinhornIsFinkle]

It sure is nice having a catcher who can throw out runners.

[Schlitz001]

Jason Kendall throws out baserunners.

[eanelson4]

WOW. Perfect throw by Kendall! Man, he has been great throwing out runners this year. What an addition.

[ELCABALLO45]

I wish Sheets could get a little support here

[tigerbrew]

Come on Offense!

[crewcrazy]

Stranding leadoff doubles really sucks. I'll be pretty bummed if Ben pitches this well and ends up losing to Glendon freaking Rusch.

[Oldcity]

Gross. Cy Rusch.

[steve267268]

No kidding. This game is so much like the 18K Atlanta game already. Who's going to play Lyle Overbay tonight? I'm calling Cameron. Nice catch by said player.

[Oldcity]

Mike Cameron is the best Brewers center fielder I can remember. It looks so easy to him.

[dlk9s]

I just told my wife that it sucks that Sheets is pitching so well, yet we're tied against this crappy pitcher. She said, "Maybe Colorado fans are thinking the same thing."

 

I had to educate her.

[Oldcity]

Suddenly Sheets will be lucky to get through six.

 

Edit: And that was before the homer...

[trwi7]

Ugh. Now our crappy offense has to come back.

[crewcrazy]

This is what happens when you refuse to be patient against Glendon Rusch. Unfreakingbelievable. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

[brewmann04]

this is really horrible that this team make rusch look like a cy pitcher

[Oldcity]

And now this ump is going to drive up the pitch count even more with that blown call.

[crewcrazy]

110 pitches. Sheets'll be done after 6, and he leaves trailing the game. This is like 2004 all over again.

[dlk9s]

Three homers in a row this inning. I'm calling it now.

[brewmann04]

if he caled the last pitch a ball sheets would have went nuts.

 

time for Braun and Prince to produce
