And Wolf continues to get lit up in ST. 5 runs already, including a Grand Slam.

wow i was hoping for the Wolf that pitched the last 2 months of the season,hopefully he just working on location.

[craigharmann]

Wolf can hit, though!!! Use him as a late-inning pinch hitter?

[ManOfTheBeer]

My extreme excitement for the upcoming Brewers season is already tempered by the brutal Klements radio spot. I hate that jingle so, so much.

[brewmann04]

Yes very impressed with our Pitchers with the bat and good for Wolf getting it done there.

[Polish Falcons]

Betancourt seems to be making solid contact early in spring training.

[Polish Falcons]

Gomez with a triple down the left field line, incredible

[RobDeer 45]

GO GO is not slow! Love to hear the excitement of BA and Bill when he's flying around the bases. Nice triple.

[thablingster]

3TO alert, pinch hitting for Arizona. Wearing #75. BA and Rock discussing whether he has the longest HR measured at Miller Park. Isn't Dunn's Dew Deck shot the record holder?

 

Aww, not one of the three true outcomes. You're losing it, Russell.

[Jim Goulart]

Wily Mo Pena homers off of Wily Peralta.

It was wily hit hard....

[Schlitz001]

I see Yuni took a walk today. That's good.

[Jim Goulart]

Eric Farris makes a dazzling play or two at second base every other inning this spring, it seems (via audio, anyway).

[brewmann04]

Almonte and Reed seem to be making a push any thoughts if they can win a spot.Great seeing Gomez getting on base maybe the light finally went on.

[Invader3K]

I see Yuni took a walk today. That's good.

Seems like Betancourt has looked pretty good so far this spring. I know it's "just spring training", but maybe getting traded has motivated him.
