[pretendastronaut]

Sorry, unexpected chain of events this morning, so a late start to the IGT.

[Invader3K]

Just turned this one on.

 

Gomez is unavailable today if anyone wondered/cared.

[topper09er]

Well now the Brewers are behind and Braun has already walked, can he remain patient?

[topper09er]

Well I guess not but I like the bunt idea, now he is 9 for his last 12 with 9 singles.

[GB12]

Bunting to break up a no-hitter. NOT CLASSY

[bigredrobbo]

I'm sure sarcasm was involved in the "not classy" comment - at least I hope so, this ain't the Cards! As far as I'm concerned, in a 1 run game, I could give a crap about the opposition pitcher's no-hitter!

[crewcrazy]

It was the 4th inning, so I don't exactly know why Cubs fans were getting worked up over the Braun bunt single. I wish the game was on WGN, though, so I could've heard Bob Brenly's comments.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

What a surprise, no run support for Manny.

[topper09er]

How did Edmonds get to 2nd, the ball must still be in the ivy

[topper09er]

4 pitch walk to the pitcher plus an error, at least we took advantage

[hawing]

Don't give it back, Manny. (The lead.)

[topper09er]

I didnt realize Castro is the first player born in the 90s

[trwi7]

I think Castro was out.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Nice job ump, miss the play twice.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Awful pitch selection by Manny/Lucroy there. THROW THE CURVE! He couldn't hit it for 2 AB's.

[topper09er]

0-2 Parra throws a splitter at the belt

[crewcrazy]

Ugh, tough break for Parra. Didn't make very good pitches to DeWitt or Baker, but if the ump doesn't blow the call at second base, Parra's out of this inning with a 3-2 lead.

[benji]

Why did Parra face Baker? Coffey was up and he is our ROOGY. was worried about Fukodome pinch hitting?

[topper09er]

What a surprise, no run support for Manny.

What a surprise, Manny gives up 4 6 runs in 5.2 innings.

 

 

[trwi7]

Nice pitch, Todd.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Why do I watch?

[crewcrazy]

Well, thanks to Coffey, Parra's line ends up looking a lot worse than it really was. It's a shame, because his stuff looked really good today. The splitter was virtually unhittable.

Except when he needed it the most on a 0-2 count with 2 outs and the tying run at 3rd.

[crewcrazy]

Right, he still needed to execute, but he shouldn't have had to pitch in that situation in the first place.
