2011-05-28 Giants (Sanchez) at Brewers (Wolf) - [Brewers win, 3-2, Lucroy walk-off squeeze]

[bensheeps]

Braun with a start. Do you let him run?

I would. Mota isn't quick to the plate

Braun with a start. Do you let him run?

12 SB / 1 CS. With the lineup after Fielder, I almost certainly send him.

Here's where I don't get traditional baseball logic...why not bring in Wilson here. You got 3-4-5 coming up and he's warm. Why wait for a save opp? We do the same thing and it drives me nuts. I'd bring in the closer and let a guy like Mota go after the bottom of the order.

[sdcheezhd]

Big bats coming up. Get it done. Would be even better for Prince to do it off Mota.

No doubt...I was at that game. Love to see Prince hit a walk off and then chase Mota into the Giants clubhouse to finish the job.

Ueck's talking about it now. Said the HBP looked intentional.

Where's Foxtrax when you need it

[Mr QL]

that strike to prince looked 6 inches off the plate

[bensheeps]

Casey with a bunt?

 

Swinging bunt http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[GamelToe]

I'd pinch hit and bunt, but that's just me.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

PH Kotsay here?

[Mr QL]

betancourt and then nieves

 

ugh

[thablingster]

Please don't let Nieves bat. Pinch hit with Lucroy.

[markedman5]

RR pinch hit for this guy! I mean come on

[jason21nl]

If they walk Betancourt the had better PH for Nieves

[trwi7]

I can't believe they're walking Betancourt.

[ninja33]

pinch hit lucroy for nieves

[theavrock]

Great move RRR.

[markedman5]

Ok Luke...lets get it done

[brewers19]

Lucroy is a no-brainer.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I like this...Bochy playing into our hands...heh heh heh

[GamelToe]

I can't believe they're walking Betancourt.

Why wouldn't they? Betancourt is almost a lock to hit a sac fly into center because that's what he always does. You walk him then get a catcher to hit into a DP which is somewhat likely.

[Oxy]

Nice to see Lucroy up here.

[logan82]

Yeah, kinda figured there was a reason Hart wasn't in. I don't understand why everyone always has such a knee jerk reaction and can't just wait for more information.

RRR's track record thus far doesn't exactly instill confidence that there is a higher logic to some of his moves.

Exactly. His moves thus far are suspect. He hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt.

[Mr QL]

You can pitch hit catchers? Does not compute, does not compute. [/Macha]
