The Return of 3TO

 

Russell Branyan along with Yovani Gallardo activated from the DL.

 

It's gonna be a good night.

Whaaat?! Yeahyaah!

[cruiserx43]

Cue the picture of the muscle at the house party.

[Gobias Industries]

I wonder why Russ isn't starting?

Go Crew!

3TO walk-off tonight...followed by 3TO Bobblehead Day this weekend...with authentic 3TO scent!!!

I get what everyone is saying about Rivera, but that train has left the station. The time to play Rivera to keep Kendall fresh was May-August so Kendall could start extra games now. They're not going to start Rivera now with 6 games left...nor should they. We had a day off yesterday so Kendall should be ready to go. Expect to see him in all 6 games for sure.

With that many 3TO scented bobbleheads in one location, every woman and stathead in the greater Milwaukee area will be drawn to Miller Park.

I could probably smell them from LA...at which point I would begin a Forrest Gump like journey across the country towards The Keg in search of the true meaning of 3TO...ahhhhhhhhh

Just had on TMJ4 news with Rod Burks live from Miller Park. It looks like they're giving out those towels again this year. They're learning though, this time it has the Brewers logo and Go Brewers written on it.

Is anyone getting this game in HD? On the schedule it says it is in HD, but on fsn-wi it says it is off air.

[tyguy20204]

Getting it in HD on DirecTv.

[zurch1818]

Thanks Charter!

[iluvlamp]

I like the movement on Bushies pitches tonight. He will probably still give up 3 tots but it looks good.

[Glennron]

Bill Schroeder just said Ray Durham usually has pretty good range...

[crewcrazy]

Zurch, I love the Villy mustache avatar.

 

Nice first inning for Bush. I was afraid at what the reaction at MP would've been if he gave up one of his patented 3-run, first-inning homers.

[trwi7]

Yeah! More bunting please!!!!

[Glennron]

Why sacrafice bunt with no outs in the first?

[GormanHarvey]

I have Dish Network and no HD for me tonight : (

[GormanHarvey]

I would hope he was bunting for a hit there

[iluvlamp]

The problem is that Yost never focused on bunting. Now Sveum is trying to get these guys to bunt. It will not work when they haven't been bunting all year basically.

 

braun!!

[trwi7]

BRAUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! INSIDE THE PARK HOMER!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[GormanHarvey]

WOOOOOO-HOOOOOO! Braunie's back y'all!!

[trwi7]

Okay, triple and an error.

[crewcrazy]

Braun says "I don't need bunts ahead of me to get runners in."

 

On a related note, thank God for the Pirates outfield. First the dropped ball that allowed Cameron to get on and then it looked like they misplayed the route on that ball hit by Braun.

 

Edit: Ha...Braun never touched third. At least the Pirates didn't care enough to throw over to third.

[rluzinski]

Maybe playing small ball in front of Braun and Fielder isn't a good idea in the first place? At least Yost knew that. I think Svuem just might be too busy trying to put his stamp on the team to notice.
