2010-05-27 Astros (Myers) at Brewers (Bush), 12:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 4-3, 10 innings]

[hawing]

I just love that Macha thinks RP are incapable of going more than 1 inning and burns through his entire bullpen after a starter goes 5 innings.

Well, he did leave Zach in for two innings vs. Minnesota. But yeah, today's use (as I follow it on Gameday, at least) is the kind that usually makes me say - preferably to the other team's manager - "you're going to regret that in the 12th."

[TooLiveBrew]

So is it wrong to ask if it was really necessary to use 5 pitchers today? Assuming of course we get a different pitcher in the 9th?

Macha is so bad this year that it's not even funny. What's strange is that I thought his bullpen management was solid last season.

[cnycerveceros]

I hope they come back and win, but right now I'm really tired of watching this team play so miserably. That swing by Prince might be my breaking point.

[sauveb]

Coffey got hit by a line drive. He got the out and finished the inning.

Ok, thanks. He wasn't hit in the pitching arm, was he?

Yes, he got hit just above the wrist on his right arm.

[topper09er]

Corey should run here with 2 outs

[hawing]

TLB, here is the description from Haudricourt:

 

Cash hits a shot off Coffey's lower pitching arm, but he recovers and

throws to first for the out. He his checked out by the trainer and stays

in the game.

[BrewCrewForever]

Whoa. When did Mark Mancuso go from the Weather Channel to Accuweather?

I prefer Kate Bilo.

[owbc]

Rally cap time!!!

[hawing]

INDEED. THIS IS THE CLOSEST I CAN GET AT WORK TO SPORTING A RALLY CAP.

[hawing]

I enjoy the brief "Essss-cobar" sound clip the Brewers have been playing after Alcides does something useful.

[topper09er]

Wow, Macha bunts with a non-pitcher, Im stunned.

[sheethead]

LET'S GO WEEKS!

[hawing]

C'mon, Rickie...is 2-for-3 really good enough for you today?

 

Edit: I'll take 2-for-3 with a walk, preferably also with a run scored.

[GormanHarvey]

Get Escy in Rick!!

 

EDIT: Get Escy and Rick in CarGo!!!

[topper09er]

Great AB Weeks, all we need is a SF or with gomez a weakly hit IF groundball...but do the brewers know how to situationally hit?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Well, if Gomez hits a grounder they probably won't be able to double him off to end the game. So that's an advantage.

[sheethead]

Via Gameday Lindstrom looks way off.

[topper09er]

You gotta think the Astros would give Weeks 2B here to avoid a possible double steal, but I wouldnt send him until 2 strikes on CarGo

[GormanHarvey]

CarGo!!!!!!

[BrewCrewForever]

Go-Go!

[PrinceEatMeat]

YES!

[topper09er]

Finally clutch hitting

[GormanHarvey]

Not exactly the guy I want up when we need a SF

[hawing]

GAMEDAY'S STUCK FOR ME, BUT I PEEKED JUST IN TIME TO SEE "IN-PLAY, RUN(S)". http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[GameMisconduct]

Nice to see CarGo just squirt one through to tie the game. Let's get a walk off bloop
