2009-08-26 Reds (Wells) at Milwaukee (Looper) : 7:05 PM CT [Brewers lose, 4-3]

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Vargas is the only pitcher I can use my 30 sec advance button on my DVR and be guaranteed not to miss a pitch.

[Funketown]

I never thought about the irony of Dusty Baker managing a Corky until just now.

[trwi7]

Haha. This team is special.

[dragoon84]

And Vargas keeps on earning his paychecks.

[crewcrazy]

It's even worse when it's Vargas blowing a lead, because he takes so long to do it. It's like peeling off a band-aid over the course of 30 minutes. Hopefully they can get out of this tied and the offense can win one late.

[brewdude15]

There should be no grownups named Corky.

This guy begs to differ.

That guy proves my point. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[brewdude15]

Touche.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Herrera is a future Brewer with that 67 mph pitch. He's a left handed DiFelice.

[trwi7]

Those are the kinds of plays that should be errors that aren't which is why it was ridiculous how Bill and Brian always praised Braun for not making an error for over a year in left field.

[bucks2281]

Just terrible, Braun.

[dabrew141]

not the best time for that...

[cnycerveceros]

Is this big league baseball?

[Mr QL]

Yep... Not much to say.

 

Maybe they'll surprise us in the bottom of the 10th.

[trwi7]

These are some very interesting plays. It's like they're intentionally messing up to keep the fans entertained.

[yogallardo43]

I know the game doesn't matter, so why do I get worked up?

[DocLuna7]

We are just finding new ways to lose games.

[bucks2281]

Remember one year ago tonight when we beat the Cardinals 12-0 at Busch Stadium? I miss those days. That was way more fun.

[yogallardo43]

Yeah that was fun. I think that is what makes this year so disappointing. Having tasted success I want more.

[trwi7]

Tomorrow is when "we woke up the sleeping giant" then. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

Braun made up for that error. Struck out on four pitches and swung at two that were balls.

[crewcrazy]

As much as I love Braun, he still tries way too hard sometimes when he feels like he has to make up for something or be the hero. Hopefully in the next year or two we'll see him mature at the plate like Prince did and become more selective.

[cnycerveceros]

Well, that was fun!

[trwi7]

We are now under .500 at home.

[pebadger]

You think that was painful? I had to watch the game while seven 12-year-old girls screamed their heads off at a sleep-over birthday party. Heading back to the basement man-cave with a large bottle in my hand.

He does have pitchability... or something. Is it funny or sad that's probably not far from the truth.
