Looks like the brewers caught a break - Tulo is out for 6-8 weeks with a broken wrist.

[young guns]

2B Rickie Weeks

RF Corey Hart

LF Ryan Braun

1B Prince Fielder

3B Casey McGehee

C Jonathan Lucroy

CF Carlos Gomez

SS Alcides Escobar

LHP Manny Parra

 

Looks like Lucroy is getting some love.

[thablingster]

Just win, baby? McCalvy tweeted Coshun will be in the booth tonight as BA is ill with the flu.

[crewcrazy]

Alright, let's break the bad Coors Field mojo. Hopefully Manny can keep the ball down tonight.

[stalton]

Brewers already 0-3 and a walk with RISP

[crewcrazy]

Prince looked pretty peeved that he wasn't able to get anything to hit to drive those runs in, but at least he knew well enough to lay off the bad pitches.

 

Casey McGehee, on the other hand, has been nothing short of brutal this month (.161/.213/.304). That was the most frustrating AB of the inning.

[Polish Falcons]

WEll what an unfortunate series of events leading to the first run...

 

- First of all that was clearly an Error by McGehe, not sure why that was scored a hit.

 

- Next play it looked like Braun dogged it in left, allowing Spillborgs to score from first, which wouldn't have happened if Lucroy fielded Escobar's throw cleanly. Escobar's throw could've been better too.

 

Certainly not helping Parra out at all.

[Ranier]

Why did Ricky bring a bat with him there?

[sheethead]

So he could swing at a ball for strike three.

 

I have no idea how McGehee got away without an error. First he pops up with bases loaded one out, then he costs Parra an earned run. Still time to atone, but that first inning is exhibit BG4 why the Brewers are 10 games under .500, and a generally awful baseball team.

 

One (1) rbi for McGehee in his last 6 games (solo HR)k? Not for a lack of chances that's for sure.

[benji]

McGehee is due to come back to earth. He has been playing over his head

[wibadgers23]

What's going on out there tonight? Geesh.

[Polish Falcons]

ok this is frustrating, I am turning this off and going out.

 

another hit?!!!!

 

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS SCOREKEEPER!!!

 

Parra still has a no-hitter going. This inning should be over.

[thablingster]

I wish we could play small ball like that. Nice play on the squeeze.

[crewcrazy]

This scorekeeper's a joke. Parra should have 0 ER right now...both McGehee and Weeks should have made their plays. Both balls hit their gloves, and there was no reason for the balls to get through. Pretty much the definition of an error, no?

[benji]

2 runs from bad defense

[theavrock]

Did that just happen?

[wibadgers23]

Has anybody else had major problems with Charter cable and FS Wisconsin all season? It keeps freezing up and now the video feed is out.

[bullox]

Saw that Macha got ejected, can anyone give a few details?

[fleehaw]

FS Wisconsin is terrible. There have been 'technical difficulities' for pretty much every televised game. And of course, I miss Macha finally showing some emotion and getting the boot. No breaks for the Brewers tonight.

[wibadgers23]

Why in the world does Coshun keep saying "runners IN the corners"?

[crewcrazy]

Saw that Macha got ejected, can anyone give a few details?

Gomez tried to bunt, ran outside of the running lane to avoid a tag from Helton, and initially no safe/out call was made. Gomez starts standing at first so everyone assumes he's safe, but then the umps get together and reverse the call. Macha comes out to argue and was apparently very animated and got tossed.

 

I wouldn't know about the Macha part, because FSN's video feed has stunk all road trip and we're only able to listen to the FSN Wisconsin feed right now.

[trwi7]

McGehee is due to come back to earth. He has been playing over his head

 

McGehee's been coming back to earth for a while now.

[wibadgers23]

Oh gosh, the video and audio feeds couldn't be more out of sync right now.

[crewcrazy]

McGehee is .161/.213/.304 in June and .191/.230/.319 in the past 28 days. Yikes. It may be time to start giving him regular rest.
