10/04/08 Phillies (Moyer) at Brewers (Bush): 5:30 PM CDT

[bucksman4]

Bushie is looking great today. I am impressed with the way he's mixing up his pitches.

[40 oz to Freedom]

The home plate calls have been horrible. If you're going to call a crap game, at least be consistent between the sides. IMHO, the Brewers have been on the short end of the calls consistently in this series.

[derflotr]

Cripes, Bush is shooting for the high 50s with the curveball.

[Bernman23]

The home plate umpire has been slanting his calls toward the Phillies in every game of the series. K zone is proving the injustices.....yet I'm sure it will be ignored by pundits and dismissed by fans who are socialized into thinking it's unmanly whining to point it out.

[Bernman23]

There was another ball which looked low and away clearly to Fielder. It altered the entire at bat because instead of forcing Moyer to come in the zone, 3-1, he can throw off the plate 2-2 and Fielder has to swing at anything close.

 

Edit: Screw Hart

[eanelson4]

Ack, that sucks

[trwi7]

Even when Hart does something right on offense he does something wrong.

[adamb100]

Corey cant hit OR run the bases!

[iluvlamp]

Hart, you are now on the list.

[thablingster]

Even when he gets a hit, Corey Hart can't do anything right at this point.

 

It has gone from sad to almost comical.

[brains and braun]

Corey Hart, looked safe to me, but not good Corey, not good.

[brains and braun]

Now Rickie is hurt? Awesome.

[tyguy20204]

1. I'm not sure if I would go so far as saying the ump work has been biased in favor of the Phillies, but I will say that there have been some atrocious calls, first against C.C., and now in favor of Moyer.

 

2. Corey Hart is not good.

[senorjerm]

I'm surprised to see that everyone seems to be taking the right approach to Moyer thus far. Except Braun, who appears to have skipped that meeting.

[endaround]

Counsell instead of Durham? Again? Really?

[ELCABALLO45]

Weeks would of blown that.

 

Lets go Bush.

[trwi7]

That was some great commentary there by either Smoltz or the other guy. "He's gotta make a pitch."

[eanelson4]

Put Victorino on a go after Feliz.

[sdcheezhd]

Put Victorino on a go after Feliz.

 

Had him all the way.

[pebadger]

That was some great commentary there by either Smoltz or the other guy. "He's gotta make a pitch."

Almost makes you appreciate Rock.

 

Not to derail the IGT, but BA has more than held his own against the PBP guys in the other series, too.

[brewizard]

Just wanted to add some Hardy love in with the Hart hate.

[dlk9s]

I'm surprised to see that everyone seems to be taking the right approach to Moyer thus far. Except Braun, who appears to have skipped that meeting.

Braun was fine in his first AB, just got out in front slightly on the pop-up (he wasn't lunging crazily, though). Second AB, he could've had a little more patience, but he swung at decent pitches.

 

Moyer has also been throwing the ball over the plate more in the last couple innings.

[HurricaneBraun]

If we win today, what time would the game be tommorrow?

[brains and braun]

Noon

[trwi7]

Come on Hall. Let Hardy get that.
