2010-04-11 Cardinals (Carpenter) at Brewers (Wolf), 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 8-7]

[Giraldo8]

Excellent pitching from Wolf, had to get 4 outs that inning.

Morgan

saying to have Ludwick bunt over in the first?

Sure

sounded like it. Sacrificing is questionable at best in the 6th and 5th

innings. It is flat out dumb in the top of the first

[Schlitz001]

Yeah, Rickie! 1-0 lead on Carp.

[trwi7]

RICKIE!!!!!!

[ttsather]

Wow, Rickie!!

 

Wooooo!

 

 

And I'm glad to hear that Prince has finally "earned" enough credibility that Joe Morgan says he's willing to stop calling him Cecil. I want Fire Joe Morgan back for times like this.

[brewmann04]

Great Job by Wolf getting out of the Hart Mess and Now MR Weeks continues to impress.

[ELCABALLO45]

Bang 1-0!

 

I love you Rickie. I love him leading off as well, 1-0 good guys.

[Schlitz001]

Wow, Rickie!!

 

Wooooo!

Just turn the sound off already.

[razzzorsharp]

The fact that Morgan was now "right" in the fact that the Cards didn't get a run makes me even happier. Keep on spewing that junk.

[ELCABALLO45]

A bunch of hard hit balls in the 1st. Hopefully Carpenter doesn't settle down here.

[Gobias Industries]

He hit the crap outta that homerun. I know it's kind of a scout cliche, but it's true that the ball really does sound different off his bat.

I would say it's always dumb with Albert Pujols coming up. And an extra level of dumb if you factor in that Joe would've had Albert try for the sac fly that he happened to hit accidentally there.

 

[cnycerveceros]

I like Joe Morgan. I don't agree with everything he says, but he's much better than Joe Buck or almost any of the Fox announcers.

[ttsather]

Just turn the sound off already.

 

Yeah, for the best. Muted now.

[jhart05]

Extend Weeks now.

 

Teach Lawrie to play RF.

 

Problem solved.

This umpire is horrible. I mean, really? The fourth pitch was a strike too.

[razzzorsharp]

Right Fielders are a dime a dozen especially if you don't care as much about defense (which the Brewers don't it seems). I would rather keep Lawrie at 2B.

For those of you out of market and too cheap for mlb.tv (like me!), espn is streaming the game online through their ESPN the Ocho.

[ELCABALLO45]

Holy crap Hart hammered that.

[trwi7]

HART!!!!

[davemakovec]

DFA Hart.

[Giraldo8]

Way to capitalize on a hanger Corey. I still am angry about your lazy play in the 1st though.

[logan82]

Hart has been pretty good at the plate in all his starts. Even in the first start he got a walk and hit a ball really hard but right at a fielder.

[davemakovec]

There was a brief minute there on espn3.com when Joe said, we have an update, and they must not have had rights to stream it or something, because it was silent. Nothing but the crowd nad the sound of the ball hitting the catcher's mitt.

[ELCABALLO45]

2 hits for Rickie

 

Edmonds has about 3 balls he has smoked this year go for outs. Really need Braun to come through here.
