2010-04-15 Brewers (Suppan) at Cubs (Zambrano), 1:20 PM CDT [Brewers win, 8-6]

[YoGasKpose]

I'd rather not pinch hit one of our bench guys (none of whom are confidence-inspiring, unless maybe we wanted to use Hart this early) and make the bullpen (which hasn't been good either lately) 5 innings.

Not saying you can't disagree with the move to leave Soup in, just that it isn't exactly illogical.

Schroeder on Suppan today, "He's pitched pretty good except for those home runs."

Haha, and the Titanic had a good ride. Excpet for when it hit that iceberg.

 

 

[TabbertBB]

Uecker must be hanging out at the same place Harry Cary did while in Chicago.

[wOOgiE22]

With the way the Brewers have been playing I can imagine Uecker imitating his character in "Major League", maybe that's his problem today?

[Oldcity]

How far will D-Lee hit this ball?

How appropriate! Today is the 98th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.

[Jim Goulart]

What did Uecker drink during his 3rd and 4th innings off?

 

No concept of the score (as noted above), the outs, Zambrano's pitch count, just sad.

 

He's slipping so badly...he's really only at his best in blowouts with the story-telling, although his game-ending calls continue to be effective.

[wOOgiE22]

DLee just hit it about 395 feet. Lucky that one wasn't out

[sargennm]

How far will D-Lee hit this ball?

399.5 feet, apparently. Geez.

[Oldcity]

Ha. That was a pop up that went to the warning track. Imagine if he didn't get under it.

 

Soup shocks the world. Chance for the win!

[WisconsinSportsRule]

This is where Macha counts his lucky stars that it worked out.

[sheethead]

Yeah, Uecker is rambling about whether Z will come out for another inning. He's at 121 pitches Bob, there is a 0% chance Z comes out for the 6th inning.

[yount19.u]

Macha's dog is safe.....................for now.

Wow, that is crazy. I would have never guessed.

Uecker must have the bottle of JD right in front of him like in Major League.

 

[Invader3K]

I know everyone hates him, but Suppan hasn't been that bad today, guys. Better than Zambrano, anyway.

[Oldcity]

9 ks 0 walks for Sean Marshall?? Where'd that come from?

[trwi7]

Narveson warming up again? Does Ken know Manny Parra exists?

[Oldcity]

More good ABs this inning. Stay hot McGehee.

[GoudaBrew]

Narveson warming up again? Does Ken know Manny Parra exists?

Is Manny only going to be used in garbage clean up time when we are down by a dozen runs or so. Seriously strange.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

In play, run(s)

[Oldcity]

Unfortunately, it was just "run."

[WisconsinSportsRule]

I'm really surprised McGehee flyout didn't carry more.

[dlk9s]

Holy crap. Brenly just said, "It's a little too early to think about defense, but Corey Hart IS a better right fielder than Jody Gerut."

[TheCrew07]

What's the deal with Parra Ken?

[WisconsinSportsRule]

I hate Wrigley.
