[endaround]

That was just ridiculous.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

hart needs to sit..i'd rather see gwynn right about now

[JrDave2304]

If Corey swings at a first pitch moving down and away.....

I'm really not even impressed with myself at this point

[naivin]

I am officially ok with playing Gwynn in RF. Good grief! The guy can't find the zone, and right on cue Corey swings at the first pitch (A ball BTW).

[Pedro]

I've vowed to not get angry during the playoffs...but that Hart AB is really testing me.

[markedman5]

Absolutely inexcusable for Hart to swing at the first pitch. They guy is all over the place and you let him off the hook like that?

 

wow

[Bernman23]

Corey Hart is absolutely abysmal. He knows his problem is being over-aggressive yet he continually swings 1st pitch. Why not Tony Gwynn Jr. or anybody else but Hart.

 

I'm so disgusted by how the wind screwed us out of a run there. 2 runs would have been GARGANTUAN with CC on the mound especially.

[trwi7]

Honestly, put Nelson in. There's no way he would hurt the team as much as Hart is right now.

[brains and braun]

It's cuz we booed him and hurt his feelings.

[treego14]

Why is Corey swinging at the FIRST pitch against a guy who has just walked 3 batters? DUMB!!!!! Skaalen ... do you talk to these guys about a sensible approach at the plate?

[Fear The Chorizo]

Corey Hart = THE reason why the Brewers can't put a big inning together...he's absolutely killed offensive innings.

 

I wish he took Cameron's approach more often and just didn't swing at all - he'd be shocked seeing that he would probably draw a walk more often than not with how pitchers are attacking him off the plate.

[Dmiles23]

How predictable was that? Good grief. Why can't we have someone else even halfway decent that can play the outfield?

[TuesdaysWithRillo]

I will bash Corey Hart all day when he does crap like that.

[bbaehman]

Color me impressed! I have wondered (earlier this year) why they haven't locked up Hart...now I'm seeing the light

[bucks2281]

You have Myers' back against the wall. He walked three dudes that inning. Why on earth would he be thinking "let me swing at the first pitch!" Hart's plate discipline is maddening.

[GormanHarvey]

So strange that I posted earlier today that I wanted TGJ in right tonight and most people disagreed. Now what do you all think? I would not even want to know what my blood pressure is right now

[naivin]

Raise your hand if you think we just blew our chance and will finish this game with 1 run.

 

Its up to you CC - as usual.

[bucksman4]

But wait...isn't Hart the one that is more at ease on the road??

[brewmann04]

i tell you if dale is straight foward he tell hart he is just playing horrible and will be sitting very soon

[JET15]

I'm late getting home and my daughter tells me Hart is up with the bases loaded and one out. I tell her it's the end of the inning and she doesn't undestand why. I guess she hasn't been watching lately

[yount19.u]

I was against putting Nelson in for defensive reasons, but at this point Hart's horrible offense outweighs Nelson's sub-par defense. He just watched three of those off speed pitches thrown for balls to Hardy in the previous at bat, and he swings at the same pitch on the first pitch?! Hart needs the off season to completely forget what Skaalen has or has not been teaching him. What a wasted inning!

[brains and braun]

Is it too late to hit CC in Hart's spot?

[Patrick425]

I'm really sorry if this was arleady brought up...but is anyone else getting a crappy HD picture on TBS? The commercials seem fine..but at times the live action is grainy.

[Schlitz001]

I heart CC.

[TuesdaysWithRillo]

Nice pitching. Let's build off of last inning offensively now.
