2010-05-20 Brewers (Narveson) at Pirates (Maholm), 6:05 PM CDT [Brewers WIN, 4-3]

[hawing]

For those of you following by Gameday...good for you? The "injury delay" involves home plate umpire John Hirschbeck.

[GormanHarvey]

Thanks trwi - I'd rather stare at that than watch the brewers

What happened to Blue?

What happened to Blue?

 

Zaun completely missed one of Narveson's warmup pitches. Hit him right in the mask.

[thablingster]

Narveson popped him in the mask with a fastball during his first inning warm-up pitches. He stayed in the game but is now leaving the game.

Maybe we should start a Houston scoreboard watch concurrent with every game thread. You know, just to make it seem like there is something bigger at stake.

[GormanHarvey]

Between brauns total brain fart last night and him opting to let that ball drop tonight, you have to wonder if there is any focus left on this team. I'm doubtful

Houston is facing Ubaldo tonight, so we stand a good chance of gaining a game. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[pebadger]

Zaun should have missed that one too. Catch an early plane to the Cities and play a doubleheader next time through Pittsburgh.

[Mr QL]

should of let Corey try to score

[thablingster]

Hart seems to be seeing the ball well right now, which is nice.

[GormanHarvey]

Too bad hart was jogging

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Ugliest RBI ever.

[GormanHarvey]

Sweet let's play with a shorter bench!

Agreed, but I'll take it at this point.

[GormanHarvey]

what happened to Zaun?

 

The curse of John Hirschbeck

[GormanHarvey]

Injured his right arm on a swing and a miss

[sauveb]

Is it going to be Lucroy time? He can go behind the plate and Kottaras can dh with Zaun in reserve and an extra pitcher going to Nashville or on the dl.

[GormanHarvey]

Some more Brewers good luck

[logan82]

Well in Narvy's defense, all Braun has to do is a catch a lazy line drive and the Brewers are out of the inning. All 3 runs have come with 2 out.

Sounds like many, many other games this year.

[jjkoestler]

ALERT: AND NOW COMES WORD THAT ZAUN LEFT WITH A STRAINED RIGHT SHOULDER. MIGHT HAVE BEEN PRE-EXISTING CONDITION. WE MIGHT BE SEEING CATCHING PROSPECT JONATHAN LUCRY TOMORROW.

 

Per TH

[GormanHarvey]

Not sure if you folks saw it, buy Braddock got called up. Joining the Brewers in MN tomorrow!

[jjkoestler]

Axford, Braddock, and Lucroy?!? I'm excited again.

Love the new avatar sheethead

Thanks, my Brewers fandom mirrors Jimmy Dugan in so many ways lately.

 

This thread is hilarious, good stuff everyone. Took my mind off the travishamockery for a minute.

 

Braun's newest defensive approach doesn't seem to be working. I would go back to moving toward the ball rather than away from it.
