Well, there's a mistake. Let's go.

 

As I type that, Cameron gets the hit. Nice! Who would have thought the much-maligned Hall-Cameron combo would do the job in this game?

[yount19.u]

Wow, I though Hall was out for sure. Nice slide!

[Legacy25GT]

YES... way to go, CAM-ER-ON. Way to end the stalemate!

[splitterpfj]

Awesome, I call sudden death....game over!

[brewers4eric]

Is anyone else reminded of the cheese sandwich game?

[Kevbo74]

Nice.

I was hoping to see the whole game, but it's pretty nice to walk in on this in the 6th.

I was thinking about this exact scenario all day. Not to say I doubted the Brewer offense, but I liked the pitching matchup.

 

and just as I was about to type more about it... Billy Hall scores from second!

 

Nicer.

[MillerParkSouth]

hopefully our bullpen has got it in them to close this out. I wonder if Yost bats for Sheets?

 

edit: come on Cam, not smart to run into outs when one of the best pitchers in the league is on the mound!

[Team Canada]

And there's your run, Ben!

[sheethead]

One Run! Make it work!

[jhart05]

J hart - 9 pitches, just as requested.

 

nice call... how bout you now ask for a nice 5-run inning here?

 

 

 

I guess I'm going have to stop off and buy a couple lottery tickets on my way home tonight. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Fear The Chorizo]

Peavy's probably done after this inning - 116 pitches

[sargennm]

Damn!

[jhart05]

Oh crap.

 

Com'on Sheeter...how about a nice work yourself out of jam, just like Sabathia did last night.

 

 

Edit: Well, I guess it only works once per game.

[Fear The Chorizo]

great...time for damage control

[sheethead]

Come on Benny, pull a Sabathia.

[sheethead]

All right, now the question is how many hits in a row does Ned let Sheets give up. I am putting the over/under at 6 in a row. Its now at 3.

[Fear The Chorizo]

is there even anyone in the pen warming up right now?

[yount19.u]

You know, I thought it but didn't post it. I just felt that Sheets would give it back this inning. Late in close games when the Crew stake him a go ahead run or two, he seems to give it back. I could be way off, but I have seen him do this more than a couple times over the years.

[sargennm]

He's got one more hit before he gets pulled.

[brewcrew00]

He's got Shouse up already, hopefully this doesn't snowball...

[dlk9s]

Hindsight, obviously (and I guess it wouldn't have mattered since Iguchi singled), but would walking Iguchi to load the bases have been a decent idea? I mean, with guys on 2nd and 3rd and no outs, you are basically asking Sheets to induce a popout or strike the guy out.

[dlk9s]

Whoever is doing Gameday for MLB.com is messing with me. He isn't putting "In play, run(s)" up - he's just putting "In play, out(s)."

[bbaehman]

At least peavey is out...but this is Sheets problem. When he needs a clean inning, he gives up three straight hits after allowing one the rest of the day

[lukevan]

How dare Sheets give up any runs!

 

Let's get outta this and come back for the win.

[MillerParkSouth]

well this is incredibly annoying.

 

and 4 hits later, somebody FINALLY goes to the mound! good lord!
