Kotsay playing 2 days in a row makes no sense to me. And hitting him 2nd makes even less sense. Swap him and Lucroy and I wouldn't mind it as much.

[hawing]

I'm just happy to see Carlos batting 8th again. Baby steps for Trip-R?

[Invader3K]

I don't really mind Kotsay batting second (thank goodness Roenicke didn't throw Gomez back in that spot after his good game yesterday), but I wonder if Hart is sitting out again for a reason.

[brewtank34]

Something's gotta be wrong with Hart for him to sit out 2 days in a row. There's absolutely no reason for him to be sitting today other than an injury.

Guess not. Ron says nothing's wrong with Hart. Time for us to jump on him again.

[Funketown]

"It's not that Corey needs the day off. I just wanted to give 'Kots' another game."

 

If this is true, is it too early to start a "fire Ron Roenicke" thread? Ridiculous.

[COBrewerfan]

I think he is giving Hart some BP and more recovery time. Because watching him hitting does not look good. His at bats have looked ridiculous so no problem with a slow return. He will be in there full time very soon.

[craigharmann]

Pink bat day!!!!!!!!! Who is using a pink bat for the Crew?

[craigharmann]

I had never heard CarGo speak until just now......wow! Not exactly what I expected.

He also needs to work on tracking balls. Hard to do from the bench.

http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif I live in Iowa so of course it's blacked out. We get neither FSN-MO nor FSN-WI and both the Cardinals and Brewers are always blacked out. The same goes for the Royals, Twins, Cubs, and White Sox, although CSN-Sports is typically available here, so that's understandable. I may have to think about purchasing MLBTV once we move south. Of course, that would probably make me horribly unproductive.

[Schlitz001]

Iowa is the absolute worst for blackouts. If I lived in Iowa, I'd probably average about 3 hours a day more of actual work.

[stoutdude04]

6 straight balls and Yuni was ready to hack.

 

Nice effort.

[Funketown]

After Drew Stubbs lead off the Reds-Cubs game with a double, Dusty had Renteria bunt him over. At least Roenicke doesn't do that.

[ELCABALLO45]

Nice job Carlos! Ripped that double. Way to stop at 2nd as well.

[Oxy]

Heck of a swing on that one by gomez--although that is the type of hit that causes him to swing at pitches he shouldn't.

[ilovebeer]

Come on Rickie you are better than that first pitch out.

[derflotr]

That's 2 ripped outs to SS now...McClellan doesn't look all that sharp.

[ELCABALLO45]

Wow, I hope Narveson gets the same strike zone he struck out on. Way outside.

[PrinceEatMeat]

We'll get to McClellan soon. We've had some outs that were absolutely ripped. Like that last one by Weeks. He was right on that.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Wow, I hope Narveson gets the same strike zone he struck out on. Way outside.

Yeah, that was horrible. The first strike was outside too, but not as far.

[derflotr]

Yeah, this ump's trigger happy on that side of the plate. I expect both pitchers to pound it

[brains and braun]

What in the heck was that garbage?
