This has the makings of an ugly inning.

Yeah, I hate the Reds.

[BrewCrewForever]

Alright now get a DP.

[eanelson4]

got out of that inning fairly unscathed. I hope CC settles down a little bit in the coming innings.

Yeah I would like to see this great command and attacking the strike zone that we all know he has.

[BrewCrewForever]

Hairston is having a heck of a day. lol.

[jhart05]

Plus Hall kills the Reds.

 

 

Forgot about that one.

[BrewCrewForever]

Nice play by JJ! Lets GET SOME RUNS!

[hurricanecrush]

CC!!!

[BrewCrewForever]

Looks like CC will have to score runs himself today.

 

Rest of team, please take notes.

[dlk9s]

I don't even care if we lose now. That was awesome.

[jhart05]

Com'on rest of the offense now.

 

If that doesn't get you fired up, nothing will.

[BrewCrewForever]

And then Weeks K's.

[AJAY]

I think we found that left-handed bat we were looking for http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

I've had just about enough of Rickie Weeks- enough is enough, make a trade for an upgrade at 2nd, even if we have to give up someone like Salome.

[derflotr]

Can CC play 2B?

[BrewCrewForever]

I agree, I want Brian Roberts BAD! I would give up anything not named Gamel or Escobar for him.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Let's see...Jimenez, Rusch, Fogg, and now Bailey. We've looked like (bleep) against four of the six terrible pitchers we've faced this week.

 

It's getting tired. Are we not preparing properly for these guys? Are the advance scouts not doing their job? Is it a lack of focus?

[crewcrazy]

It's the bottom of the 4th...still plenty of time to get to Bailey.

[eanelson4]

You know, i think Braun only swung at 4 or 5 pitches that would have been balls in that AB...

Might as well. By getting Sabathia we've decided to go for it this year. Why stop there? Roberts would greatly improve our World Series chances. I haven't checked, but I'm pretty sure there has never been a World Series champion with a leadoff hitter batting below .220.

[Bruce Ciskie]

That was hilarious, though Fielder almost killed himself on that slide.

[derflotr]

I don't think I've EVER seen a starting pitcher get away with so many hanging breaking balls not only at the belt but above the belt. This is absolutely ridiculous.

I agree- he's hanging a TON of pitches.

We need to get to him soon.

So we're in agreeance this is a focus problem?
