Koskie will most likely get the start. Hopefully he can start a tradition of being a Twin-Killer tonight.

Tonight's game has 10-8 written all over it. Hopefully we have 10.

[steve267268]

damage control is definitly the name of the game tonight..

 

You know, Hendrickson didn't do all that bad in LA.. it was just his walks that killed him... Even still, he only gave up 3 runs through 5 and some change.

 

If he can do that again tonight i'd say we have a great chance of going for the series win on sunday.

[Anders34]

If Hendrickson exits early again tonight, let the stretching out of Jorge De La Rosa begin! JDLR's stuff is just as good as Liriano's. He just needs to keep finding the plate.

[badgerfan.tgf]

Wow, according to the Brewers online ticket ordering, there are only scattered single tickets available for tonight.

Bobbleheads tonight are only for kids.

[BrewersFan4Life]

Anyone know the starting lineup yet?

[PeaveyFury]

Bobbleheads tonight are only for kids.

 

Supposedly. I'm not sure why you think that makes it less of a factor on attendence.

Dont forget, tonights game is in HD.

[adamb100]

Hendrickson blows, He already put 2 on base.

[Brewtacular]

here we go

[PeaveyFury]

Looks like Hendrickson is going to be making an early walk to the showers, and probably just continue walking to Mitchell International to catch his flight back to the minors or maybe to another organization.

[adamb100]

Hendrickson gives up a hit and scores the leading run.

 

1-0

[bullox]

JDLR looks better and better all the time.

 

and better

[Brewtacular]

whos up in the pen, and whose coming up from aaa tomorrow

[PeaveyFury]

Nothing like not having a chance in the game before you even get up to bat.

 

Please bring in Lehr or DLR now, Ned.

[adamb100]

Hendrickson allows YET another hit and allows another run with 0 outs.

 

2-0

[tpepl626]

Nice, a hit batsman. Well at least he swung at it heh. I hope Ned yanks this clown soon, I can't take it anymore.

[bucksman4]

Props to Shroeder for asserting the point about Hendrickson possibly being on a short leash because of his early troubles. He was speaking of his starting job being in jeapordy. I know I am not the only one to think that we are basically conceding the game when Ben takes the mound. He has shown me absolutely nothing so far from any start he has ever made. I have not seen anything that tells me he can consistently get major league hitters out. He is meat out there and basically throws BP. I have no clue how Yost can march him out there with any sort of confidence. When Helling comes back, Hendrickson gets the boot!

[LV Brewer Fan]

I realize Sarfate has control issues, but at least the kid has big league stuff. Hendrickson has a straight as a string fastball, a curveball that he can't throw for a strike and control issues. Let's give someone else a shot already.

[giffted1]

Ben must really like Nashville. Get George in here.

[bucksman4]

And still no one out....

[adamb100]

Pathetic

 

Hendrickson allows another hit and another run.

 

3-0

 

0 outs
