How low was that ball to Hall? I'm going to guess a spinner that barely made the plate.

[chuckcrim]

I cannot stand Bill Hall. His AB's are just awful.

[Hate those Rodents]

Cameron can't hit in the six hole. He is the center fielder. Unless you want to put Cameron at 3B and Hall in CF, there is simply no way that move is logical (to our manager).

boy that was a nice at bat by berkman. i'd like to see more of those from our team

[eanelson4]

I hope we bring back Gabe Kapler next year. He's dy-no-mite!

[crewcrazy]

Rickie's looked pretty good out at second base so far today. As long as he keeps taking his time and doesn't try to rush anything, he should be fine.

 

Here's to hoping for more runs and knocking Wandy out early. After seeing him mow down the Brewers in his last start in Milwaukee, I want to see him get crushed.

Yeah he's had a couple nice turns on DP balls today.

 

DFA RIVERA!!!

[datrain711]

manny's got a nice low pitch count considering berkman took him for 9 or 10 pitches

[eanelson4]

Nice AB from Rickie right there! We need more of that out of him.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Rickie walks twice...awesome.

If you couldn't tell from the guy in the Oktoberfest leiderhosen throwing out the first pitch, it's La Crosse Area day at Miller Park.

 

 

 

Hey now, I'm from that area of the state. (Sparta, to be exact.)

 

'Course that's also the reason why I now live down here.

 

So...yeah...where was I going with this? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[joepepsi]

I live in La Crosse. Forgot it was LaX day. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

Sniff...sniff...I smell a big inning here...

[Gobias Industries]

Very nice approach today. Seems like we're not swinging at anything out of the zone.

Except for Hall and Hart.

 

Answer to the trivia question is easy. Mark Loretta.

[datrain711]

god i'm sick of berkman. manny needs to come up with a couple of good pitches here..

[trwi7]

I despise Geoff Blum.

[trwi7]

I despise Geoff Blum. all scrubs who own the Brewers.

Ugh.

[sargennm]

Geez, another two strike hit. Put these guys away!

[wibadgers23]

Why do our pitchers throw the worst 0-2 and 1-2 pitches? Terrible pitch by Manny. Just throw it in the dirt.

[trwi7]

Manny's getting squeezed by this fat ass.

[Legacy25GT]

good time for the pitcher to come to the plate. Let hope that walk doesn't hurt them.

[Gobias Industries]

How is that called a ball? It wasn't even really on the corner.

[yount19.u]

There is no way in Hell that ball 3 was a ball. That pitch was perfect.

[Glennron]

Gameday had strike 3 to Wandy way outside, was it a bad call? According to Powel,l Manny got screwed on ball 3 to Ausmus though.
