That is why I love Gomez!

That is why I love Gomez!

agreed. That was a sick play.

That is why I love Gomez!

We'd be up by 1 if Edmonds was in CF

[benji]

Does diego catch that ball?

[hawing]

Anyone else hungry for cheese sandwiches tonight?

Nice double play there.

Old school! I remember that night. Sheets was amazing. And yes, I am hungry for cheese sandwiches.

Here's a couple of ways to take that particular trip down memory lane...

 

Retrosheet box score

 

IGT from 6/8/2004 (though it lacks the cheese sandwich images, unfortunately)

[Invader3K]

Does diego catch that ball?

Nope, not even close.

[stalton]

Good inning by Wolf. He needed that

[benji]

Angels seem to position their defense like the Twins. It seems like a lot of balls are hit to players in positions I wouldn't expect.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Awesome. Thanks for the HR Tori!

[crewcrazy]

Oh man...how did that roll out of Hunter's glove? Talk about a lucky bounce, but I'll definitely take it.

[stalton]

*snicker* That was awesome.

[young guns]

Despite his early troubles, Wolf has been pretty effective tonight. Only at 88 through 6.

[Gobias Industries]

Mother of god. Iron glove in LF for the angels. (Rivera?)

[hawing]

I suspect I'm one of the more hopeful fans around Brewerfan, but if someone had told me it would be 9-2 in the 7th, I might not have guessed correctly which team had which score. Keep it up, Brewers.

[randybreuerfan]

Injury delay? oh I see.

[hawing]

Injury delay?

Yes. Aybar went down as Casey slid into 2nd.

[wOOgiE22]

Injury delay?

Casey had a hard slide into 2nd to break up the double play and slide into Aybar's leg, which hyperextended. Aybar needed to be helped off the field.

 

[benji]

anyone think Casey's slide was a little late? The first pitch at Counsell looked intentional. I am wondering if the Angels are a little upset? Of course Bell hit Casey.

[Gobias Industries]

Yeah, it definitely wasn't as clean as Bill made it out to be.

[young guns]

Will wolf come out for the 8th?

[crewcrazy]

Villanueva is warming, so I don't think so. They'll probably just let Villa pitch the last two innings with the score the way it is. Feels good to be on the other side of one of these for a change.

[jvrocksaz]

earthquake?

 

Yep... 5.9 in SoCal

[TheCrew]

I didn't think the slide was that bad - guys almost ALWAYS slide into 2nd like that, Aybar just didn't get out of the way in time.

[crewcrazy]

The bad throw to second was the main culprit for the injury, in my opinion. A good throw lets Aybar leap over McGehee completely or at least do a better job of avoiding the slide.

[dlk9s]

I didn't think the slide was that bad - guys almost ALWAYS slide into 2nd like that, Aybar just didn't get out of the way in time.

Yeah, I don't know why Aybar tried to keep his foot on the bag so long. A proper "neighborhood" tag may have kept him out of harm's way. Not his fault, though. Just happened.
