2011-06-20 Rays (Niemann) at Brewers (Narveson) - [Brewers lose, 8-4]

[TheCrew07]

Narvy looked really sharp in the 2nd.

[ilovebeer]

that was a nice inning there Chris.

[ilovebeer]

Pittsburg, Reds and scrubs are losing at this time. oh and Houston. lol

[trwi7]

I wish Brian would tell us how Lucroy's .707 OPS compares favorably to Brian McCann's .869 OPS.

[TheCrew07]

ha nice hustle Jeff, thanks for the gift out.

[TheCrew07]

I wish Brian would tell us how Lucroy's .707 OPS compares favorably to Brian McCann's .869 OPS.

He's been slumping for a while, his last 10 games is pretty horrific.

I think the ump crew is doing a good job today. I feel like I should say that because usually people only notice when they screw up.

[pebadger]

Can't wait until the Crew gets out to NY and the game pace slows to a crawl again.

[trwi7]

Way to swing at that garbage, Corey.

[ilovebeer]

So far since the game started I have voted 150 times for Prince, Rickie, Luc, Hart and Braun.

[pebadger]

Like sands through the hourglass . . .

[Hate those Rodents]

Yuni is up with two outs. Bathroom break time!!!

[pebadger]

Rays, Orioles, Angels for the trivia answer?

[Rhett16]

Both these teams are batting like they have a hot date after the game and can't wait to just get this over with.

[TheCrew07]

I was thinking Texas was one, I don't recall playing Texas?

[logan82]

We played Texas. Cordero blew a couple saves.

[pebadger]

May be Texas. I DO have very bad memories of a bad Crew loss or two down in Arlington. Don't recall if they played in MP or not.

[trwi7]

How could that go either way Bill? That's the definition of an error.

[trwi7]

Played Texas last year. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

I understand Casey was in a "slump" but he has not hit a HR in 28 games! How does one just flat out lose all power like that?

[Yeti73]

Here is the big inning. So predictable.

[ilovebeer]

not good bases loaded anod no outs.

[stoutdude04]

How did the error happen?

[stoutdude04]

And was it a double play ball?

I don't think it's a loss of power so much as it's a problem with not making good contact. In the last week, he has seemed to make better contact and is hitting line drives.
