2011-06-19 Brewers (Gallardo) at Red Sox (Wakefield) - [Brewers lose, 12-3]

[justwinbb]

Could ellsbury be yos last batter? No because RR doesnt have anyone up.

[liveforoctober]

Yo .. please get Ellsbury here. We can't afford to be down 6 to start. You have to give us at least 4 innings. Thanks.

[jason21nl]

BA-this has a chance to get messy in a hurry..Like the Sox putting up 4 runs and batting around isn't messy?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Will the laid back Roenicke melt down over the strike zone? It's been brutal all series.

[TheCrew07]

Yo hasn't hit the glove but a couple of times all inning... every pitch is high, wide, or right down the middle.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yo could've helped himself by having the awareness to make that play at first. Would've saved a run, and so far about 10 pitches.

[owbc]

The Sox announcers make a good point--Gallardo has now surrendered 12 1st inning runs in 2011, the most of any inning. The stats show this has been a trend throughout his career.

 

Edit: make that 14

I cant remember so many high strikes called ever.

[jeffy]

Yo has always had his problems in day games.

[jjgott]

That Bruins horn is not very classy. Someone call LaRussa!

[PrinceEatMeat]

Crap. Well, this game is for sure over now. Kiss it goodbye. Yo's dropped ball at first has cost us 3 runs so far.

[jason21nl]

BA-an no end in sight for Gallardo...except for the fact there are 2 outs...I really don't like BA

[jeffy]

Game over.

[dlk9s]

Well, Happy Father's Day to me, right?

 

I don't normally give up so early, but it might be time to switch my Virginia Cavaliers from ESPN3.com to the TV.

[Gormans sideburns]

Well, at least I can get on with my day. Happy Father's Day everyone!! I'll check back in 3 hours.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Ugh.......

 

Well for one, Yo is certainly not getting the same strikezone that Wakefield got in his half, but that doesn't account for his terrible location so far.

 

He's got to know that with Marcum only going an inning Friday night that he might be stuck eating a few innings here no matter what.

 

EDIT: and I see Mitre up in the pen.

 

Always a good sign in the first inning.

[UeckerAddict]

Ridiculous. Yo is going to top Marcum's 44 1st inning pitches from Friday. Kind of misleading that only 3 of the 6 runs are earned since the E was on Yo.

[Oxy]

So bad starts happen, but the odds of Greinke, Marcum and Gallardo having starts like this back-to-back-to-back are not very good and very annoying. At least Wolf stepped up big yesterday.

[trwi7]

The US Open is boring too because it's golf.

Fixed.

[Oldcity]

Ha. Well to answer that question, I sure hope this isn't a statement game.

[jjkoestler]

A touchdown and we are right back in the game.

[liveforoctober]

46 pitches? yuck. We need Yo to get through 4.

[jason21nl]

absolutely brutal first inning...Its my fault. Damn near every time I watch Yo pitch he gets hit around.

[PrinceEatMeat]

The US Open is boring too because it's golf.

Fixed.

Well, I'd agree with that. I'm not a golf fan. I was just making a point.

[thablingster]

Well, a silver lining is that if Kotsay is in center the inning still continues because he doesn't catch that ball Gomez just caught?
