J.J.'s lack of speed kills us again.

[InBraunWeTrust]

Figures. Just with the extra dose of excitement it needed, too.

[thablingster]

JJ Hardy is really slow. lol

[JET15]

Uh-oh...we've got a runner in scoring position.

OMG, I thought we were going to get a gift with an E6. Pft

[wibadgers23]

I'm sick of Hardy and his lead feet.

[ELCABALLO45]

Hardy really is not fast, but he is really not that slow.

[Bernman23]

I don't want to hear from anybody how we shouldn't be chicken littles if we lose.

[TheMCG]

This team really is going to choke away their playoff chances aren't they?

[FidoMcCokefiend]

Thanks Ned. Torres gives up 1 this inning, followed by Braun K, Fielder K, Hart groundout.

[marquettefan13]

In many ways I don't want to watch anymore but I also feel like I can't turn away. Come on Brewers - surprise me and find a way to win.

[wibadgers23]

Thanks Ned. Torres gives up 1 this inning, followed by Braun K, Fielder K, Hart groundout.

Yep, Braun and Prince will be overswinging for sure (as usual). And now the Padres have the lead man on.

[JohnA17]

I doubt this was the case here since it was a nice rebound by the SS, but I have been watching the opponents announcers a lot lately and there have been a lot of comments about lollygagging jogs down to first by the Brewers that have been pointed out. Sort of a fundemental flaw that has bugged me all year about the Brewers but doesn't seem to be addressed by our manager.

[InBraunWeTrust]

I really can't believe this team. Our hitting, our pitching, or coaching, our defense.... every single thing is wrong with this team right now, the most important month of the year.

[Bernman23]

Hardy really is not fast, but he is really not that slow.

Prince has over twice as many stolen bases in his career and Hardy is always at or near the bottom in range factor among shortstops. Nah, he's pretty slow.

[TheMCG]

I'm going to be sick.

[trwi7]

This umpire blows. That was a damn strike.

[JET15]

That was low. Good call

 

EDIT: I take it back after seeing it on Gameday. It was a strike.

[PeaveyFury]

I can't believe that was called a ball.

[marquettefan13]

Yeah for an out - I was afraid of a bad throw at 3rd there.

[ELCABALLO45]

Hardy really is not fast, but he is really not that slow.

Prince has over twice as many stolen bases in his career and Hardy is always at or near the bottom in range factor among shortstops. Nah, he's pretty slow.

So your basing this off of Stolen Bases? That makes sense.

 

Yeah, he is not fast. And he is slow for being a SS. But overall he is not as slow as some make him out to be.

[JET15]

Chip's gonna hit into a DP and we're going to win this on a solo HR

[madjeff66]

Kouzmanoff must have worse speed than JJ to get pinch-run for there.

 

That last called strike was 4 inches lower than the ball four two batters ago.

[TheMCG]

Please get out of the inning.
