[JoeH33]

Hall's been doing a good job drawing walks lately. Thats his 9th walk in his last 10 games.

[JoeH33]

They gotta load the bases to get to Bell don't they...

 

Do we just concede a DP...http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

 

 

Edit: Apparently the reverse jinx didn't work. Not that I expected it to.

[giffted1]

Bill was right about Turnbow and the towel that it is related to mechanics, but his specifics were a bit off. What Turnbow was doing was a specific drill aimed at bringing your release point closer to home plate. It was developed by Leo Mazzone and his pitching coaches to make pitchers seem deceptively fast (aka with a release point closer to the plate, the ball will get on the hitter faster). Its a drill I incorported into my routine as a pitcher in college, it really helps a ton. I can't imagine how fast Turnbow's pitches look with a close release point.

[endaround]

Yes Darron, starting pitchers with that 4.62 ERA is so much worse than the quality start ERA of 4.50.

[COOOOP]

OOOF, I thought Rillo put that one out. I hope the ground rule double doesn't bite us in the tail.

[mikevan1818]

The game is not on the line . . . Bill Hall will not get a run in here.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

[adamb100]

How dare I doubt him.

[jloos19]

I love this new Bill Hall that walks a ton. The only thing keeping his OPS down has been not walking enough.

[endaround]

Maybe Garner shouldn't have used him for the 2nd night in a row after a 35 pitch outing.

[mikevan1818]

c'mon Mench, break this game open.
