"Big boys coming up"

 

Escobar walks up to the plate...

[Schlitz001]

Yovani is the best.

[pebadger]

Braun is not. Not right now anyway.

[pebadger]

Sweet. After tonight's thrilling come-from-behind win, the biggest game of the season to date won't be televised. Sure, I'll be working, but still . . .

If someone could set me up with Road Runner wi-fi for Wednesday afternoon, I could post my observations from the park. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Also, I like your approach to tonight's game.

[ELCABALLO45]

Ugh, Douple play ball... Come on Escobar. I know its hard hit but your suppose to make that play.

[ELCABALLO45]

Very poor start for Yo. Just did not have anything. Reminded me of when Sheets didn't having anything and it was basically BP. At least Yo hit a homer.

[ELCABALLO45]

That a guy Carlos. Come on Lucroy do some damage here.

[thablingster]

When Randy Wolf has to bat with runners on base, you know it is time for someone to hit the DL.

[DocLuna7]

Wishing that we had Cain right now.

[Baldkin]

We have Counsell, Edmonds or Kottaras who can all hit.

 

There's no reason for one of them NOT to be up right now. Freaking ridiculous.

[pebadger]

Kottaras should have hit there. Anyone on the roster can catch as well as him in a pinch.

[thablingster]

That's a perfect spot to burn Edmonds, since he can't play in the field anyway. If he reaches base pinch run with Hart. Yeah, you burn two guys, but you've burned the guys who can't play defense.

[ELCABALLO45]

I don't care if its the 3rd inning. We had 2 runners on and we sent Wolf up to the plate? Seriously?

[Funketown]

I missed the 3rd inning (and Yo's homer for that matter). I know Yo was struggling, but was that the only reason he was removed after 2.2 innings?

[ELCABALLO45]

Nope. He was just getting rocked.

 

 

[Schlitz001]

Maybe it's just me, but BA and Rock have been really good together lately. BA with his cynicism and Rock with his "no kidding" responses.

 

I can't believe we're still in the 4th inning.

[pebadger]

Yeah, we're on pace to end this thing at about 11:30.

 

There is an opportunity here to make this one memorable, but they have to do some more damage to Volquez quickly. Really a missed opportunity last inning.

[thablingster]

Rickie Weeks is locked in! Stay healthy Rickie, stay healthy!

[Funketown]

I missed the 3rd inning (and Yo's homer for that matter). I know Yo was struggling, but was that the only reason he was removed after 2.2 innings?

Nope. He was just getting rocked.

 

Well, I guess that's better than an injury.

 

Scary inning there. At this rate, I'm going to be asleep by the 6th inning.

[DocLuna7]

For some reason I am feeling really good about this game. Hope I'm right, and wow Rickie.

[ELCABALLO45]

That was not even a fastball... Wow. Stay hot Rickie, Stay HOT!

[ELCABALLO45]

Come on offense, still got 5 innings to work with here. Lets steal this game.

[Rob]

Worst infield defense in baseball.

[Baldkin]

Worst infield defense in baseball.

Fixed.
