2011-05-01 Brewers (Narveson) at Astros (Norris) - [Brewers lose, 5-0]

[Schlitz001]

He clearly stepped on the base to tag up from the Astros TV feed. That's a nice break for the Brewers.

Weeks strikeouts are piling up

[Oxy]

He clearly stepped on the base to tag up from the Astros TV feed. That's a nice break for the Brewers.

They synched it with Gomez' catch on FSNWisc, and he left early by a hair

[GormanHarvey]

He clearly stepped on the base to tag up from the Astros TV feed. That's a nice break for the Brewers.

 

 

But he left a tad early so it was the right call

[bucksman4]

I'd pound low sliders all day to Weeks if I was an opposing pitcher. He'd never beat me. He only has success consistently hitting a fastball.

 

Suprised Gomez K'd too. Terrible 2-hitter. RR keeps putting him there and keeps getting the same results.

Not if he got called out for not touching the base it's not. Not that I'm complaining.

[GormanHarvey]

Who said that's what Wallace was called out for? Looked to me Kulpa was showing how much he left early by. I put zero stock into what Coshun says

[Gobias Industries]

It was so close I don't know how he could possibly tell in real time. My guess is before the game the ump probably just decided he wanted to make that call.

[1992casey]

Lucroy has been with the team for a year. It's time for Craig Coshun to learn to pronounce his name.

[BuckyBrewer61]

Do the Brewers practice bunting?

[trwi7]

Well this game hasn't been frustrating at all.

[Oxy]

When do we get to face Halladay and Lee again? I'm sick of Wandy and Bud.

[jason21nl]

They are all trying to pull the ball today. Maybe try staying on the ball and taking it oppo would be a better approach

[Yeti73]

I feel good about this inning. Bats are about to wake up...

 

Apologies...

[bucksman4]

When is it instead a matter of a hitter not taking the right plate approach as opposed to a pitcher completely dominating them? Bill is so quick to praise Bud Norris (who?) but not critique the hitters.

 

That's one of my most frustrating things about baseball. Giving too much praise to a pitcher and not putting enough blame on poor hitting approaches.

[TheCrew07]

Someday a TV will exist where we will be able to mute a specific announcer's audio and I will be a happy camper, maybe Bill will be gone by then. He's such an obvious homer it dives me nuts, at least make an effort to be a little bit objective Bill.

[jason21nl]

They keep swinging and missing the same pitch so obviously that pitch is working for him tonight. They need to adjust and wait a little longer and take it the opposite field

[endaround]

When are you going to realize just because you never heard of a guy it doesn't mean he sucks?

[jason21nl]

This inning is a great example of what I was saying. Both Weeks and Gomez pulled off the ball and hit weak grounders.

[brewmann04]

I hope RR will move Gomez out of the #2 hole he just does not belong there.

[bucksman4]

When are you going to realize just because you never heard of a guy it doesn't mean he sucks?

Yeah ok. Cy Norris.

[lcbj68c]

Under .500. Welcome Back.

[jason21nl]

ARGH!

[PrinceEatMeat]

Well, this game is over. Someone finally hits the porch with a cheap homer.

[Raw Biz]

Well, I'm ready to keep Estrada and move Narveson out once Greinke comes back.
