[thablingster]

Hopefully Manny comes out and throws strikes like he did last time out. It would be nice to get tonight's game with Yo going tomorrow.

[PrinceEatMeat]

We have a Mike Rivera sighting!

[sauveb]

Hmmm. Looks like the same old Manny to me.

[SeriesFinale]

Man, I hope Meltdown Manny stayed in Nashville...this is a dire start, reminiscent of the bad old days

[derflotr]

I'm glad Gamel's got a day off, he needs some time to rest.

 

Early baserunners and high pitch count, sweet.

[SeriesFinale]

He's nibbling again

[Ennder]

I suppose Bush is nibbling when he has issues throwing strikes in the 1st as well.

[ClubLevel]

31 pitches. although lots of those were good pitches fouled off.

 

but the way we've been hitting, no runs allowed is the important part i guess.

[sauveb]

Way to go Manny. I'll be happy if he can give us 5 good innings after throwing 31 pitches in the first.

[derflotr]

Tough AB by Hairston made that inning nervous. Great job by Parra.

[SeriesFinale]

Nice! And the second I saw Mr. Brewer Killer I thought we were done for.

 

Not happy with that pitch count but the Manny of earlier this year would've given up a few runs given that start.

[pebadger]

Those last three hitters were impressive, as much for his willingness to pitch as anything. Well done, manny.

[SeriesFinale]

Tough AB by Hairston made that inning nervous.

Agreed.

 

I wish the Brewers hitters were as patient or had such eyes tonight...feels like Harang isn't even in double digits here for pitches

[sauveb]

What is up with our inabilty to get out any Reds hitter hitting less than .200?

[pebadger]

I don't know, but that's a piece of info that our hitters might want, too.

[sauveb]

It seems like Harang is throwing to a much larger strike zone than Parra is.

[Invader3K]

COUNSELL CRUSH!!!

[Invader3K]

Chat is rocking right now.

[thablingster]

I figured with that home run Counsell had to be nearing a career high in home runs. Yet, when I looked it up to my shock, awe, amusement, and horror, he had a year where he hit 9.

 

Hooray, infield singles! Score runs any way you can, boys.

[Invader3K]

Yeah, Counsell hit 9 in '05, though he had a career high for ABs as well, so it makes some sense.

[pebadger]

I hope that half-inning doesn't come back to bite.

[trwi7]

Parra has 105 pitches. Why the heck is he batting here?

[brucrustu]

Nothing a manager can do makes me madder than letting a high pitch count guy bat and then when 1 baserunner gets on pull him. I hope Manny keeps Macha in the dugout
