Sveum should have pitched Benny because Sorry pwns CC.

[brewtank34]

Can someone please tell Brian Anderson to stop kissing the Cubs bottoms? PLEASE!

[Oldcity]

Ugh. Come on CC.

[iluvlamp]

Cue the circus music....

[ELCABALLO45]

Here we go again

[dlk9s]

Jeez, both doubles were off the plate inside.

[bucksman4]

The Cubs are so much better than the Brewers it's laughable.

[pebadger]

Hrm, I think I've seen this one before.

[Gormans sideburns]

Absolutely NO REASON that Cam"error"on shouldn't have caught that ball. I just don't see why people think he's that great defensively. He's good at getting to the gaps, but coming in or going out he is way below average.

[iluvlamp]

OK. Come on boys.

[dlk9s]

Meh. Could've been worse. The damage came on pitches that would've been balls.

Haha

 

Dead center wind blowing out that is a tough catch, he is one of the best defensive CF in the game.

[brewtank34]

Only the 1st...lets go! Lets get it back.

[TauPentaRei]

Psht...

 

the Cubs still use that antiquated "get em on, get em over, get em in" approach. How cute.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Reality is that the Cubs are hitting the good and bad pitches better than we are.

 

Sveum saying these guys know how to play baseball tells me he's not paying as much attention as we were led to believe. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Wow. After this year there's no way I want Hart signed long term. What a pathetic at bat.

[dlk9s]

Looks like Dempster has got his slider working tonight.

Playing center is not that easy. He is damn good at it. If he never made any great plays I could see your point.

I wouldn't go that far depending on the price, but wow, his plate discipline is horrendous and gets worse by the game instead of improving with experience.

[brewerjamie15]

Forgive me. I have missed the entire beginning of the game because I was busy.

Was CC's first pitch a warning pitch or a bean ball? It should have been.

If you're that good of a centerfielder and one of the "best" in the game, you should have been playing deeper, especially with Lee at bat and the wind blowing out. Cameron never seems to know where the wall/track is at. Like I said, good to the gap, but not so much elsewhere. IMO

[iluvlamp]

Good AB Counsell.

[crewcrazy]

I really hope Corey's struggles are because he's uptight about contract negotiations, but that's the kind of thing that's next to impossible to prove. I just hope he shows better patience at the plate next year...he'd be such a dangerous hitter.

Derrek Lee really isnt a big power threat these days. He was playing in so a sac fly he would have a chance at the plate with Soriano.

 

Cameron has been on of the best in the league this year in center, just leave him alone.

[dlk9s]

Ok, time for dinner. Promise me two things:

 

a) No Brewer will swing at any more sliders.

b) We will have the lead when I come back to the computer.
