What's up with ESPN's photo of Gagne? Is that a bad Photoshop job or is Gagne wearing a different style of hat in the photo?

Silly Canuck.

[And That]

Craig Counsell strikes out swinging sharply.

[trwi7]

I want to see a "Craig Counsell bunt pops out sharply to pitcher (insert pitcher here)"

[Oldcity]

Why does mlb.com need to flash huge updates for a pitching change? I stepped away from my desk for 30 second, came back and saw LETTERS FLASHING IN ALL CAPS!!! In the tenth of a second it took me to read "PITCHING CHANGE" I feared "THREE RUN HOMER!!!"

[razzzorsharp]

Bumpy head syndrome?

[Brily0204]

jflick (and those in charge), I for one would absolutely love to read an article about what goes into making GameDay work. Incidentally, my 78-year-old father thinks GameDay is the most magical thing since the invention of the aeroplane.

[bklynbrewcrew]

Gritty at bat Counsell.

[jflick1215]

OK, for sure. I will do the game on Friday (CC!), and write up a detailed report, and put it on the front page. Brian and I are good like that http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Ranier]

The guy on the Red's broadcast just called Cincinnati the best baseball town in the country. What would he say about 80% empty seats today?

[uecker9]

Bottom 3 here, no drama eh boys!?!?!

[eanelson4]

OK, for sure. I will do the game on Friday (CC!), and write up a detailed report, and put it on the front page. Brian and I are good like that http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

2 Questons:

 

1) Are BA and Rock really as big on knobs as they sound on TV? I'm willing to change my mind about this pending information from someone w/ first-hand experience of them

 

2) Do BA and Rock (or anybody else over for the Brewers) ever come over here to guage the feelings of the Brewer fans? You should tell them they should come post sometime. That would be fantastic to have something like a Q & A section of the forum w/ BA and/or Rock.

[And That]

The next Brewers road win (maybe today?) will equal their total from last year (32)... wow.

Be sure to tell why they put the red dot in the bleachers when an outfielder catches one on the warning track!

[yount19.u]

Weeks wore his baseball magnet today folks.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

brewers win brewers win...rickie is player of the game....

[trwi7]

And most of the 364 fans in attendance go home disappointed.

[sargennm]

Ladies and gentelemen that's a 4-2 road trip. Consider me tickled pink. Hopefully we can turn around the mojo at home and get Sheets and Parra back on the winning track.

[uecker9]

The next Brewers road win (maybe today?) will equal their total from last year (32)... wow.

That is awesome, totally different team esp. as of late.

 

Forgot to add - Game Over!

[Ranier]

4-2, really good trip considering what happened before it.

[datrain711]

for a road trip that included back to back awful games and a fight between teammates, 4-2 is pretty darn good

 

Now lets take care of business against the Nats and Pads

[Irish Brewer]

Nice win for the guys today, now a much needed day off before the Nats come in this weekend. Hopefully we can take at least 3 of 4 from them while the Cubs and Cards go at it this weekend.

[bklynbrewcrew]

Good job Suppan and nice to see Rickie with a real solid game.

[splitterpfj]

Good job guys, keep ringing up 2 of 3!

 

Next 7 vs Nats and Pads...yummy!

[hawing]

Looks like someone FINALLY was able to convince Rickie that it is, in fact, big-boy time.

Mmm..... big boy time.

(Catching up on this thread after the game, otherwise I wouldn't include the photo in the quote)

Brian, did you know when you selected this image that it's from the museum division of my employer?

 

Oh, and to stay on topic, Big Boy and I say 'Huzzah' for the Brewers. May the off day help those who need it and not cool off those who are hot.

OK, for sure. I will do the game on Friday (CC!), and write up a detailed report, and put it on the front page. Brian and I are good like that http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

That would be very cool...great insight. Here's to a big evening of "In Play, Run(s)" for the Crew!!!
