7/25/08 Astros (Rodriguez) at Brewers (Parra): 7:05 CDT

Well, on the bright side, Wandy is out of the game.

[DougJones43]

Okay, I think that's enough with the high fastball. Try something else.

[ELCABALLO45]

Crap

[nohopspanther]

Nice signing Doug, 3 guys who can't get people out in the bullpen. I can't believe they gave a guy with a below average fastball 13 million to be a right-handed reliever.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Good to see our smart, intelligent, savvy veteran catcher just gave Houston the lead.

 

And now Riske is getting squeezed because he can't control the fastball. Lovely.

[DougJones43]

Where are these pitches missing???

[bjkrautk]

Kendall's throwing decision cost Parra a no-decision (for the time being).

He did get the first two guys out.

He got 2 outs right away, and his fast ball is just missing, give the guy a break.

[Bruce Ciskie]

I knew we should have re-signed Linebrink. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[nohopspanther]

Hell no, he's lucky those weren't gone. High meat fastballs when the last thing you should be giving up is a flyball.

[ELCABALLO45]

3 hits usually win alot of games...

[kiwi brewer]

let's see if there is any magic left... i like the drama.

[Bruce Ciskie]

I don't know, a couple of those fastballs looked like they had some movement on them. Maybe it was just my TV.

 

That's two breaks from the incompetent boob at second base. Berkman was safe. Weeks is an idiot, but he got away with his mistake this time.

[Eddiehitsthefoulpole]

The real problem is our 1 run. We should be able to beat a team that scores 3.

[thunderbat30]

I hope Weeks can learn how to tag out runners because that is two calls that could have went the Astros way tonight even though the throw was there.

[dlk9s]

Game over.

[jhart05]

I'm not even worried.

 

I just have the expectation/feeling that they will come back to win this game.

[ELCABALLO45]

All we need is a bloop and a blast.

[naivin]

Forget about Kendall, etc. Problem in this one is the offense, that despite the late inning heroics the last few nights, continues to struggle. 6,000 LOB the last couple nights? One run through 6 innings?

I don't, and I don't think I care that much.

 

Tomorrow marks two weeks since this team's last loss. They have to be allowed to drop one here and there.

[ELCABALLO45]

I care if we win or lose, I know they will lose here and there but its going to suck to have a 7-0 roadtrip and then come home and lose the 1st game to the Astros.

And hey, if we do lose, at least the Cubs, Cards, and Phillies lost.

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Villy is nasty out of the bullpen

[ELCABALLO45]

I WANT RUNS
