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

[endaround]

Baserunning question I couldn't tell from my TV angle, but I thought Fielder should have scored on Mcgeee's double, mostly because it looked like Casey could have had a triple as it rattled around in the corner.

Ueker said Fielder was held.

Rickie Weeks at bat is truly a beautiful thing. Could watch it all day.

[trwi7]

Joe Morgan explaining the difference between Fielder's and Pujols' swing is pretty funny.

[ELCABALLO45]

"That's why one of them hit over .300 and one of them hit below .300"

 

Yeah your right, Prince sucks he only hit .299.

It's really irritating having these games on ESPN. The picture is better but these guys really don't take the Brewers seriously and it bothers me.

[trwi7]

They need to play some Warren Zevon everytime Wolf starts.

Some fun with Rickie's early numbers. He is currently striking out only once every 5.5 PA (I did this quick and didn't include HBP). That is quite a bit better than his career high of 1/ 4.7. Most of his career he's been closer to one per 4 PA. He is also up 6 BB to 4 K's and on pace to walk nearly 160 times. I don't anticipate he'll continue to see the ball that well, but he can regress on the contact side and on the walk side and still make some pretty big gains. Threaten Prince's BB record perhaps?

[ELCABALLO45]

What a unclassy home run by Pujols.

Macha makes Yost look like a genius. Why leave Wolf in to face Pujols when Coffey was ready to come in?

Because both he and Wolf felt he could at least not give up a homer? Macha has done a pretty solid job managing the pitching staff so far. If Wolf gets Pujols there, it looks like the right move.

[logan82]

That is why I think Escobar will be about average on defense for the season. Inconsistency. Once he gets consistent, he will be phenomenal.

[crewcrazy]

It's Coffey Time!

 

 

Another solid outing from Wolf...I'll take it. At least it's taken until the last game of the series for Pujols to do something.

[thablingster]

Coffey's time from the bullpen was 13.48 tonight. As we're so close to the NFL draft it made me wonder what he'd run for a 40 time.

If the bases are empty, I could see letting him face Pujols. He came out the the mound, he should have pulled him. Hindsight, of course. I realize that. I was wondering why he didn't pull him.

Morgan with a comment about "small markets" upcoming. Get the DVRs ready.

Haha this made me laugh, thank you.

 

I can tell everyone is waiting on pins and needles waiting to hear this!!

 

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Umm, Jon Miller.. Casey McGehee is up, not Corey Hart. But go ahead and keep talking about Hart.

[trwi7]

Uhh, Jon, this is McGehee, not Hart.

Since it only happens once in a blue moon, I'll gladly put up with ESPN announcers for a better picture.

[logan82]

Did he just say Hart was at bat while McGehee was at bat?

[derflotr]

Haha, Joe Morgan. That was amazing.

[ELCABALLO45]

That was a awesome point Joe. Thank you very much for that. I am now a better person because of it, thank you again.

Orel + Joe is like Econ by Dummies

[trwi7]

OMG shut up, Joe!
