Let's go Yo! I know Santana is a great pitcher but I think we can take this one. Looks like Rickie hits him well 4 for 7 with a triple and 2 HR's.

[crewcrazy]

Looks like I'm going to have to miss this one, which really, really bites. Depending on the outcome, I'll have to check out the archived game on MLB.com.

 

Hopefully the Brewers can hit him as well as they did last April, when he gave up 3 home runs and 5 runs.

[GormanHarvey]

Looking at the splits I wouldn't expect much out of Kendall today, but that pretty much goes without saying so far.

 

BTW razzzor, you still have the Mets vs Bush up on the splits.

[Ennder]

Initial reports are Pelfrey will be skipped tomorrow and we'll likely face Nelson Figueroa who went 3-3 last year with 2 of his W coming against the Brewers, one as a starter and one as a RP.

 

We will win today and lose tomorrow is my prediction!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I'm assuming this is blacked out on DirecTV?

[Invader3K]

Holy cow, I almost forgot it's a day game today! I'm glad I clicked on this thread!

 

A win today would be so huge. Let's go Brew Crew!

[pitchleague]

I'm assuming this is blacked out on DirecTV?

yep, the game just went, "buh-bye" on me. Sigh. Oh, well. Uecker and Powell Provus it is, I guess.

[razzzorsharp]

Blown calls are not awesome when it lets the opponent have Reyes in scoring position.

[Invader3K]

Gallardo looking good so far. Three strike outs in the first inning was a nice thing to see.

[whizkid]

He's throwing a lot of pitches to get these strikeouts though.

[stoutdude04]

I have a bad feeling about this inning here.

 

Glad that wasnt the case.

[rluzinski]

55 pitches through 3 innings, for Gallardo. 3 innings from the bullpen looks likely.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

JJ smoked that ball to left-center. A freaking black hole out there.

[thablingster]

It is amazing how many well hit balls just die in the outfield. I wonder if it is just the spring effect or if this ballpark is really going to play like Petco and some of the bigger ballparks.

[Diskono]

...game just came back on DirecTV. Is there a reason you guys were assuming it would be blacked out? It shouldn't be, as far as I can tell.

[pitchleague]

not here in AZ. I'm still getting the "program not available in your area" black screen. Or is it on a different channel for 669?

[DHonks]

It's not on in other markets. In AZ, it's not an option on the mlb EI package, and both the Mets and Brewers' feeds are blacked out

[Diskono]

gotcha, I didn't notice who was posting (and thus realize that you guys aren't in WI). I actually was getting the "program not available in your area" message in Madison at first, but that may have been my receiver acting goofy.

[pitchleague]

that's what I thought, DHonks.

 

Pretty good game, thus far. Gallardo getting out of trouble is nice, but Santana sounds like he's throwing peas.

 

And, yes, it seems like CitiField is playing like Petco, thus far. Probably need to wait until it gets warmer out to see how it really plays, although I know they've said that it's pretty nice in NY this weekend.

[rluzinski]

Yo's ERA under 5 again! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Even without his curve, he's mowing them down. The Mets are just watching all those perfectly placed fastball go by.

[razzzorsharp]

This is why Yo isn't an ace, he doesn't finish games he starts.

[rluzinski]

Magnificent relay. That's why you cut off those deep throws from the outfield. WOW.

[Ennder]

Great chance to double switch out Kendall here but I'm sure we won't do it!

[trwi7]

There's the Brewers I know and hate.
