Oh joy for Yuni-boy. Hopefully he can break out of his career-long slump.

[ilovebeer]

I hope we get the good Yo this evening.

[umphrey]

Gallardo and Liriano profile as very similar pitchers IMO, except for the righty/lefty aspect

[ilovebeer]

every parking lot around miller Park is packed could be over 45000 tonight.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Same thing last night, and it was 39,000.

[ilovebeer]

the north lot is completely full which it wasn't last night and as of 555PM they had sold 1465 sro tickets.

[chickinbrickin]

Two walks in the first so far.... Come on YO!!!

 

27 pitches isn't too bad

[chuckcrim]

Gallardo with another high pitch count early. Ugh.

[ilovebeer]

At least no runs scored.

[saget]

Yo is more frustrating than Manny Parra.

[Gobias Industries]

If that Weeks at-bat was any indication of Liriano's stuff tonight we should rock him.

[BrewCrewForever]

Uggh, Liriano looks like his good self. Could be a long night.

 

Gallardo on the other hand is starting to go in the direction of Manny Parra as of late.

[ilovebeer]

That was not a good first at bat for the brewers.

[Vgmastr]

Why are you trying to hit the corners with Liriano hitting? Good lord, that's pathetic.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Really Yo? You walked Liriano? Just blow a fastball by him. Stop messing around.

[trwi7]

Awful pitching by Yo and awful defense by Betancourt.

[hurricanecrush]

Walking the pitcher leads to a run. Nice...

[chickinbrickin]

Walking a pitcher is going to kill you every time and of course it does. Yo is one of my favorite Brewer's but some times I can't stand watching him pitch.

[PrinceEatMeat]

And then Betancourt looks like an idiot on that one.

[Ayt]

Yuni Suckanblow.

[Oxy]

Just got in and I see that it's going to be a long night AND we are going to rock Liriano http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[wisconsinfan47]

It didnt even look like Yo was missing. He was just honestly nibbling at the plate with the pitcher up. That was pathetic

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Yo has been really inconsistent this year.

 

Uke was interviewing some Chinese Synchronized Swimming lady...only caught the last part, but he was on a roll.
