2009-04-08 Brewers (Gallardo) at Giants (Johnson): 9:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 4-2]

[brewdude15]

Rickie is 0-2, 2 K's and a E tonight.

can't spell Rickie Weeks without 'em.

[pebadger]

Way to work out of trouble others created, Yo.

[Ennder]

I'm not sure that Kendall is a better hitter than Gallardo so I like this move~.

[hurricanecrush]

Gallardo is going to make them pay for walking Kendall to get to him.

[GormanHarvey]

Anyone that is following along on Gameday have Yo's pitch count though 4?

[senorjerm]

OMG I love this kid.

[GormanHarvey]

YO absolutely smoked that ball! How impressive is that?!

[jjfanec]

Anyone that is following along on Gameday have Yo's pitch count though 4?

Yo is at 64.

 

Johnson is over 80 right now. Glad to see his pitch count getting up there. He may only have one more inning in him.

[brewtown82]

That's why you don't walk anybody to get to Yovani!

[hurricanecrush]

Um... wow.

 

Gallardo absolutely crushed that!

[brewerjamie15]

New Name-

 

Go-yard-O

[AJAY]

Wow, no doubt about that one. How sweet was that !!

[bjkrautk]

I'm starting to think the Brewers should field 9 pitchers against the Big Unit from now on. (McClung got 2 hits last year, and now Yo goes Yard.)

[GormanHarvey]

Thanks jjfanec and thank you YOGA! I bet RJ is not pleased that Righetti had him walk Kendall to get to Yo

[Schlitz001]

Highlight of the year for me so far is Gallardo launching a HR over the left field fence. Wow.

[ELCABALLO45]

New Name-

 

Go-yard-O

Haha that really made me laugh out loud!

 

What a shot by Yo!

[dlk9s]

Molina: I'm going to have the Unit go so high up the ladder on this pitcher that I'm going to stand up. Yeah, we're going to blow him away.

 

Unit: This is going to be fun. He ain't catching up to the high heat.

 

Yo: And...thank you.

 

Molina: Oh, boy.

 

Unit: Oh, boy.

[GormanHarvey]

New Name-

 

Go-yard-O

Haha good one jamie! I wonder if Yo saw RJ motion to molina with the head bob?

[davemakovec]

Here's my thought process:

 

Bill Hall - I smell a four-pitch K.

 

A double! Alright!

 

Well, it doesn't matter because Kendall's about to ground out weakly to the shortstop after looking at a meatball of a first-pitch fastball.

 

Hey, they're walking him to get to Gallardo. Good call - he's twice the hitter Kendall is.

 

In play, run(s) - man, I hope he went yard.

 

Woo-hoo!

[razzzorsharp]

I really hope that they pull Yo before he hits 100 pitches today. No need to go crazy, especially if he gives us 6.

[GormanHarvey]

Thats awesome davemakovec that you were following on gameday and you actually thought it may be a hr by Yo. Goes to show how good of a hitter we know he is. Nice dog btw

[GormanHarvey]

how can renteria be griping with that pitch? it split the plate at the top of the knees. pitchers pitch but easily a strike

[pebadger]

Regarding the boxscore on FSN:

 

Are anybody else's eyes drawn to the 3 white-on-black digits of the box score rather than the highlighted black-on-silver/white digits which give the score? A minor gripe, but I guess I'm used to the standard r/h/e box so I'm subconciously drwon to the three number grouping.

[brewerjamie15]

steal!

[jjfanec]

It is great to see Braun looking good early. After the injury questions with him I was a little anxious but he seems to be hitting pretty well. I hope Hart and hardy can follow suit and get hot as well.
