8/4/08 Brewers (Parra) at Reds (Arroyo): 6:10 PM CDT

Get Mr. Parra some stinking runs!

 

When will Yost end this Weeks experiment cut our losses and go with Durham? It drives me nuts, and I feel the same way about Cameron.

[BrewCrewForever]

Bottom line time. Weeks and Cameron are killing this team much more then they are helping it. Yes they have had moments, but all they have been is moments. It's time to pull the plug and give more PT to Durham and Kapler.

This game is reminding me of that 17-inning Angels game from a few years ago.

[moofnelson]

If Parra wants to win this game he's going to have to bear down a little better and hit a home run.

This game is reminding me of that 17-inning Angels game from a few years ago.

It does have a similar feel. Man that game was crazy, even made the WOAH SOLVDD archives.

 

[BrewCityUnit]

Imagine how Cub fans are feeling right now...they are being shut out by Houston and Brian Moeller.

[cruiserx43]

Glad we got that over with. Now we can go back to wondering if the Crew is going to score any runs tonight.

[yount19.u]

I'm glad the ump is giving those extra 3 inches off the corner to the Reds and refusing to give an inch to Manny.

[moofnelson]

How can a pitcher cruise through thirteen straight batters and then just lose it? (Now a bases loaded double to the pitcher...)

[endaround]

Manny has been terrible thin inning hard to blame the ump for Manny completely losing his command

[owbc]

Ned should have seen that coming and gotten him out of there.

[Bruce Ciskie]

How can the other team's pitcher hit a 90-something MPH fastball down the middle, but our hitters can't even bother to swing at 70 MPH pitches that are right down the middle?

[moofnelson]

Frustrating.

[yount19.u]

Manny got squeezed a bit in this inning based on the pitches Arroyo got. And I'm sorry to say this game is over.

[BrewCityUnit]

Prince needs to make that play

[owbc]

At least we battled hard tonight. I'm outta here.

[BrewCityUnit]

See you later Yount19....check the box score tomorrow to see if we come back

[pitchleague]

KA-BOOM! Wow what an inning. You can't walk guys, you just can't. They always seem to come back to haunt you.

 

Very surprising to see this, since Manny was cruising until the base hit.

[razzzorsharp]

I understand that the Brewers will still be in good position after this game win or lose but the team just doesn't seem right at all. It's like they are all a bunch of headcases that have the mindset of a bunch of 8 year olds when things aren't going their way.

[Bruce Ciskie]

See you later Yount19....check the box score tomorrow to see if we come back

 

For this to happen, we're going to need someone to get a hit with one or more runners in scoring position. It will also help if we can avoid giving up two-strike two-run doubles to the other team's pitcher.

I'm not thinking that's going to happen tonight. At this point, I might as well just hang out and wait for McCarthy's presser at 8:15.

[Brewcrewin07]

This team is just so frustrating to watch. I said it then, and I will say it again, they will not recover from that Cubs series. It's proving to be true. So what?? They won 2 in ATL, a college team could've won two against ATL. Jorge Campillo schooled them for the third time this year, now Manny is having the ultimate meltdown against a team that has given up on the season. Not to mention the scorless innings streak is at 15 and counting.

 

That Cubs series was the beginning of the end for this team I'm afraid.

[SlideBernieSlide]

I didnt expect a Manny meltdown. This is what use to happen to Parra in April and early May. yuck.

[moofnelson]

It's a good thing the Brewer's offense is clicking on all cylinders right now, or I'd have to say this game is over.

[Bruce Ciskie]

KA-BOOM! Wow what an inning. You can't walk guys, you just can't. They always seem to come back to haunt you.

 

Unless you're facing the Brewers.

 

I'd love to see what happened if Arroyo walked the bases loaded, because I'm virtually certain we'd find a way to score either 0 or 1.

So, once this statement is proven to be wrong, are you going to admit it? Some people are so unrealistic. Are we suppose to win at a .666 clip all year?
