[jason21nl]

holy crap was that a ridiculously awesome throw by Weeks

[crewcrazy]

Wow, that's a great throw by Weeks to get the out at home. Strong throw and online without getting to set his feet.

 

Compare that to Prince's throw home on Friday night.

[brettac1]

Yuck.

 

Yuck.

 

Yuck.

[adamb100]

uh oh....

[jason21nl]

and that was a really stupid decision for Braun to dive there. He had NO shot to catch that ball

[Oxy]

Who is Danny Espinosa? I don't like him.

[razzzorsharp]

Why dive there? You're gonna hurt yourself doing that?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Dumb move diving for that. Could've saved the third run. Like I said before, should've put Braddock in to face the lefties.

EDIT: And now he brings him in when it's too late. Way to go Roenicke.

[cheesecup22]

and brewers lose again..

 

getting swept by that nationals is pretty awful, especially since they will likely win no more than 1 game in Philly..

[brettac1]

Loe is obviously tiring out, which tends to happen when you trot the guy out there EVERY GAME.

Espinosa is a switch hitter and is better from the right side.

[brewmann04]

well Bill Schroder seems to think that was a good move on ryan Part. Well again the Brewers implode against a team they should have been able to beat up.

[ilovebeer]

It's my fault i said when the Brewes get ubove .500 i put my Brewer flag on my car, I guess i am going to have to take it off since thye won't be above .500 after today.

It wouldn't have mattered either way. The ball stuck at the base of the wall; so three were going to score no matter what.

How dare you bring reason and facts into an IGT.

Agree, but he looked pretty good from the left side today.

[ilovebeer]

At least the cards, scrubs and reds all lost today.

[PrinceEatMeat]

At least the cards, scrubs and reds all lost today.

Well we might have lost 2, so we still did worse.

[jason21nl]

Nothing good can come from a guy diving at a ball that there is absolutely no shot of making the catch on

[crewcrazy]

At least Braddock's velocity seems to be back to where it was before that Pittsburgh outing. Calms some of the injury concerns I had.

[cheesecup22]

At least the cards, scrubs and reds all lost today.

Did they lose twice?

[wibadgers23]

Nothing like stating the obvious, but we gotta start scoring some flippin runs.

[crewcrazy]

Big thank you to Jim Riggleman for taking Livan Hernandez out of the game, at least. The Brewers have been able to score against this bullpen so far. Good job by Braddock keeping it within reach.

Agreed on both accounts.

[brettac1]

It's be nice if they can score Braun.
