2011-06-04 Brewers (Gallardo) at Marlins (Volstad) - [Brewers win, 3-2]

Only problem with Braddock here is that means Loe in the 8th as usual. It should be ok though as after Morrison, Dobbs is the only real LH bat.

[Oxy]

Nice catch, Casey.

[ilovebeer]

Nice job Zack and Casey.

Mcgehee needs to sit for a week and cb bucknor needs to lose his damn job

I completely agree with the second part. CB has been on the manager crap list for years.

[pebadger]

Time for some Webb burger runs.

[pebadger]

Counsell laced that. (Everything is relative).

I can think of a few really bad umps, but I can't think of one worse than CB.

[endaround]

Plenty of the plate? I swear Bill just guesses or he needs his bifocals changed

Without saying it, I think there's one key reason why he won't be losing his job anytime soon. Hint: nobody wants Jesse Jackson posted up outside Commissioner Selig's office with picket signs.

Loe's going to earn his pay and his job as 8th inning man right here. Heart of the order

[Eddiehitsthefoulpole]

Kameron Loe. Why? Here comes a walk and a jack.

[bucksman4]

Can't wait until Saito comes back. Loe is no 8th inning guy. For whatever reason, RR loves this guy.

[natronek8780]

Can't wait until Saito comes back. Loe is no 8th inning guy. For whatever reason, RR loves this guy.

Oh, I completely agree. I just know that RR views him as such so that's why I said he's going to have to earn it tonight.

[natronek8780]

I will say though, Loe just threw his 3 nastiest sinkers to Stanton. Those were filthy

[Oxy]

That looked like the first time Stanton has ever faced a sinker-ball pitcher. Clueless.

[razzzorsharp]

So Axford for the 9th?

[Eddiehitsthefoulpole]

I am pleased that my earlier prediction about Loe was wrong. But I too am looking for to Saito's return.

[ilovebeer]

Nice job Loe.

[bucksman4]

So Axford for the 9th?

I'm hoping for a few Badger Mutual insurance runs so that Ax isn't needed.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Loe had that sinker working nicely.

[dlk9s]

I'm a bit behind the action because I'm watching an internet stream, but I must say that Loe pitched a very nice inning and Weeks made a very nice play to end it.

[ilovebeer]

Dear Brewers, could you please score a few runs here, thanks brewerfan.net

[natronek8780]

I think that play to end the 8th was a good example of RR's shifts working too. I'm still a bit torn on them (especially in double play situations) but if you noticed, Rickie came from behind the bag to get to that. I don't think he makes that play from normal 2b position.

[chickinbrickin]

Well thank God the wife wants to go out to dinner and a movie tonight. I think this is one of those games I am going to be glad I didn't watch. Hopefully Yo dominates and the bats heat up and I can come home and be surprised with a win.

 

Just got home and I am glad to be surprised. Here's to Ax holding it down, and making it less stressful than last night.

[ilovebeer]

Casey is useless.
