2011-06-15 Brewers (Narveson) at Cubs (Zambrano) - [Brewers win, 9-5]

[Raw Biz]

Wow, Bizarro Brewers tonight.

[jason21nl]

well, well, well!

[Schlitz001]

Betancourt=win

[jjkoestler]

YUNI B!

[natronek8780]

Gotta give Rock credit on that one... he was right about that being a pretty good matchup for Yuni. We needed that!

[ReverendBrewmeister]

McGehee and Betancourt both with clutch hits? Inconceivable.

[Bombers]

Honestly wasn't expecting that. But way to go yuni!

[Fear The Chorizo]

let's get a shutdown inning in the bottom of the 7th, please

[mastershake76]

I am in shock

[ilovebeer]

Yuni comes through!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I am pleasantly shocked. Way to go Yuni.

[mastershake76]

Dang, one more would have been a biggie. Still, more than I think anyone expected given the circumstances.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Counsel would've been a terrible PH option there - no way he's catching up with upper 90's. That's one of the very few types of pitchers Yuni B's ok with - hard thrower with bad command in the strike zone.

[ilovebeer]

Shouldn't Hawkins be pitching the 8th?

[razzzorsharp]

Reed Johnson's elbow is directly on the black of the plate. Back him up LaTroy.

[ilovebeer]

In todays jsonline brewer blog, it seems like Hawkins is in the dog house.

[mastershake76]

Shouldn't Hawkins be pitching the 8th?

No, Kameron Loe has a stranglehold on that job. For some reason.

[razzzorsharp]

They talked about Hawkins asked RR for a bigger role earlier in the telecast. He has deserved it.

[Raw Biz]

Shouldn't Hawkins be pitching the 8th?

My thoughts too. Also, I thought Schroeder said that Roenicke said he didn't want to use Hawkins two days in a row. Hopefully this means Braddock in the 8th. I still probably would've at least let Dillard start the inning with all the righties coming up, with Braddock warming up.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Who are we kidding, it's going to be Loe - and Pena + Fukudome are going to end up getting AB's next inning

[ilovebeer]

Escarbar just doubled and stole third for KC.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Escarbar just doubled and stole third for KC.

Who cares? He still sucks.

[ilovebeer]

Nice job Mr. Hawkins.

[mastershake76]

Call me crazy but I think we need 2 more runs or we're in trouble.

[rluzinski]

Call me crazy but I think we need 2 more runs or we're in trouble.

I think it's 5.

 

BTW, Weeks can hit balls really far.
