It occurred to me that Durham looks like this dude from Click...

 

"Everyone's watching... to see what you can dooooo....."

Are you kidding me? I'm so sick of all these gritty battlers. Hello, you're supposed to suck!

[moofnelson]

looks like one of those games where everything that can go wrong, goes wrong. Let's hope it's not the whole series. Three balls hit on the screws in the 2nd and nothing to show for it.

And now Roids makes a great catch, I can't stand this st. Louis team

[brewers19]

Be honest, who else here knows that this game is already over.

 

If there is anyone who feels that way, it would be best for them not to make any posts in this thread from here on out.

Yup, this just proves that there is something "magical" going on in STL this year. What else can you say?? You can't put this kind of scrap heap talent on the field and win without some other forces working in your favor. The cardinals have that going this year and it's really frustrating. Well, just go get them tomorrow I guess and hope Suppan can get them a win so all the pressure isn't on CC and Bennie to win just to get the split. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

This game is not starting out how I would like, I keep telling myself that luck evens out but man the Cardinals continue to just get luck with everything they do

[bobskube]

Today does not seem like our day.

 

The reasoning...tough play in the sun and Cameron does not make it and Shoemaker does. We hit three rockets and have hit five on the game and nothing to show for it.

Me. Yost should have done the same thing with Bush that he's doing with Hall. Go with the hot hand. Where you pitch at has little influence on how you pitch.

[Trowekamp]

That's a tough 2 runs to put on McClung. The difference so far is that the Cards took advantage of the difficult fielding situation (due to the sun) and the Brewers didn't by stranding Hardy.

All I can say is a gold glove CF makes that play.. Edmonds would have caught it.. it was difficult.. but when your calling card is defensive you need to make those.. especially when they have been few and far between this year.

[Trowekamp]

I think it is a matter of time before they light up Pineiro.. the question is can McClung keep them close enough for it to matter.

[JJHardy7]

It's only the second inning and we're already saying it's over or it's not our day. Good thing it's a 9 inning game. I just hope our players have zero thoughts that some are having here. We'd lose every game when we'd be trailing. I'm not worried about 2 runs I just want to limit the damage and let's see what our offense can do!

[ELCABALLO45]

We cannot catch one break...

[brewtank34]

McClung looks like crap tonight....it's going to be a long night.

[Yeti73]

McClung was up all inning. Doesn't bode well for him. We are going to need at least 7 runs to win this.

[JJHardy7]

It's all about McClung's curveball. When he's throwing it with any kind of control he's fine out there...when he can't throw it for strikes they can just wait for a fastball.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

that was a mcclung inning there not letting anyone score

[Trowekamp]

McClung was up all inning. Doesn't bode well for him. We are going to need at least 7 runs to win this.

Well since they averaged 8 against pitchers a lot better than Pineiro I would say we are in good shape.

 

[naivin]

Am I the only one who dodn't know this game started at 6:00? I just turned on Brewers Live and it was the 2nd inning...

 

Looks like we'll see both McClung and Bush tonight at this rate.

[Trowekamp]

At least we clear Week's spot this inning so we will get Hardy to lead off next inning..

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

nice AB by weeks....he layed off the low and away

[JJHardy7]

Weeks better not get picked off or caught stealing...

[Brewcrewin07]

Typical Brewers....sweep 3 against three very good Pitchers including perhaps the best in the NL, then turn around the next night and they can't hit Joel Piniero. Frustrating....

If this game is over, then what was the point of me being a Brewers fan for the last 13 years?
