pretendastronaut, if you're around, feel free to add your graphics. Otherwise, we're kickin' it old-school tonight. It's probably a Retro Friday, so why not?

...per the JSOnline Brewers Blog, in which we are reminded that the Brewers' elimination or "tragic" number is 16. Thanks for the pick-me-up, Anthony Witrado.

 

Come on, Brewers: save face tonight.

I like Bourgeios and Escobar both getting to play.......why not?

 

Now if we could just try anyone else at catcher!

 

Lets go crew!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hawing]

Brian Anderson is trying his best to jinx the Brewers ("they've made two first-inning runs stand up" in the 5th).

 

Edit: I have 2/3 of the posts in this thread. I can't be the only one here...

[Buckylovesbeer]

You are now 1/2. Anderson has a great average this year when it comes to the "jinx."

 

Gotta score more!

[hawing]

60% now. Come on, Soup, the quality start is within your grasp.

[jeffy]

Cameron is not helping a lot out there tonight. The only hit was one he should have had and now an error to allow the only run.

[Buckylovesbeer]

Is it me or has the crew left a lot of guys in scoring position already tonight? Come on Guys!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Nice effort from Soup tonight...quality start in my book. If we could just get quality starts, with our run production and backend bullpen...we coulda been a contendah!

[sdcheezhd]

Good job by Soup. It was cute hearing his wife wince and sweat in the 2d. Ueck and the K of Zito calmed her down.

[hawing]

Wow, it's crowded in here now. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Edit: So...Monday's game is Carpenter vs. Bush (more likely Narveson). Neither option looks good on paper.

I don't think Suppan was very good. Four walks and nearly half his pitches were balls. Typical Suppan start only this time it was against a bad offense.

[hawing]

No team should have to face a Molina in three consecutive series.

[pitchleague]

great ooggly booggly this game has been loooooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggg.

 

I can't believe we have 2 runs when we've been walked 9 times.

[trwi7]

I say we sign Brandon Jennings. It looks like he can pitch.

what strange is i no longer get upset by these losses.

[owbc]

That was probably the most boring game I have ever been at that wasn't a blowout.

That was probably the most boring game I have ever been at that wasn't a blowout.

 

Yeah, not a great one last night. Cameron's defense was really lacking last night. The fans got on him for letting that first hit drop, and probably rightfully so.
