2009-07-01 Mets (Pelfrey) at Milwaukee (Gallardo) : 1:05 PM CT [Brewers lose, 1-0]

Ugh, two chances to score this game with Hart batting and both failed.

[SeriesFinale]

Maybe some of you should just let Macha do the managing and let him worry about if Yo has too many pitches or not. That is what he get paid to do.

Welcome to brewerfan; people are entitled to their opinions here.

[Mr QL]

Ugh, why was Macha bunting there anyways? Freakin' stupid. Another wasted opportunity.

 

Sad that Yo is set up for the loss.

[Fear The Chorizo]

looks to be a great day for the offense to fall asleep, right before a 4 game road series that could either bury or give the listless Cubs some life. Not entirely on him, but Corey Hart has been today's rally killer.

 

It'd be a big wasted start by Yo, since he won't be pitching in any of the Cubs games.

[TabbertBB]

Roof was closed today and no sun-- what will be the "excuse" today for not scoring runs?

[bobskube]

I wouldn't mind Hart being part of a trade right now. He simply is not that good. He is the goat of this game.

[bobskube]

Billy Hart and Corey Hall are two of my favorite Brewers.

[TabbertBB]

Funny, that the offense seems to "fall asleep" on the day games.

[Schlitz001]

Anybody have a statistic on how many runs we've scored in day games this year? I imagine it can't be too many.

According to baseball-reference.....

 

runs/day games - 79/24 = 3.29 runs/game

runs/night games - 289/53 = 5.45 runs/game

[crewcrazy]

Just looking through the game thread titles in the past month:

 

6/28: 0

6/25: 4

6/21: 2

6/20: 5

6/14: 4

6/13: 1

6/11: 3

6/7: 7

 

I don't know how much of today's struggles are due to it being a day game, though. The roof is closed and there aren't any shadows on the field due to the overcast skies. Brian and Bill mentioned that it looked like a night game because it's so dark. Today probably had more to do with Pelfrey just having a good day and forcing a lot of ground balls.

[RoseBowlMtg]

It's on both Prince and Hart imo. Prince was too far off even if Hart pulled it back then he hesitated going to third and how can Hart miss on two straight fastballs to bunt. ABC baseball at it's worst!

The pitcher pitched well? Why do the mets only have 1 run?

[brwrsfan]

We haven't lost yet guys...still time to score some runs.

[trwi7]

It's amazing that a bloop double that goes about 130 feet and a ground ball single that finds a hole could mean a loss for Yo.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

At this point I'm almost hoping for K-Rod in the 9th.

[trwi7]

Wow? Can we bring Chris Duffy back?

[Mr QL]

Kendall, Gerut, Catalanottp

 

May as well never came up to bat.

 

Gerut needs to be DFA'd. He sucks so much. Just bite the bullet.

[PrinceFielder28]

our offense is non-existant today

[SeriesFinale]

Well, I gave him a pretty long leash, but I'm officially disappointed in Jody Gerut. Seems all he's been good for is helping Prince celebrate his accomplishments.

[PrinceFielder28]

come on Craig!

[sargennm]

It would be great if we Hardy could get a big hit right here and be declared funk free.

[Hate those Rodents]

I don't see any reason why Catalanatto can't outproduce Hart or match his production the rest of the year if we can deal Corey for pitching. I am starting to see Kapler in Cat, and Kapler was better than Corey the second 2/3 of last season.

[SeriesFinale]

Come on JJ, let's let Pelfrey be the one with the tough luck loss.

[crewcrazy]

It'd be nice to at least tie it up here, but even if they don't, K-Rod is far from unbeatable. It always seems like he lets a lot of runners on base, even if he eventually closes the door.

[PrinceFielder28]

we have out hit them again today. wow JJ really crushed that one!
