2011-07-08 Reds (Leake) at Brewers (Greinke) - [Brewers, Kotsay walkoff winners off F. Cordero, 8-7]

[owbc]

So now I am wondering, since Ortiz will get a 5+ game suspension, does he get to participate in the HR derby and all-star game?

[Oldcity]

God Prince looks lost against this guy.

[Oldcity]

Ha. Or not.

[benji]

He will appeal and the hearing will be after the all star game.

[TheCrew07]

Can't wait for mediocre Cordero to cruise to another save against the Brewers. Not sure anything frustrates me more than watching him turn into Superman against the Crew.

Not that I'm ever into being down runs going into the 9th, but I sure would love to hang blown save and a loss on him just once.

Really great AB by Prince. Now McGehee needs to do something...

[markedman5]

pirates come back to beat the scrubs........they are really playing well.

Well, if the Brewers don't come back and Arizona finishes off St Louis, your new 1st place team by percentage points would be the Pittsburgh Pirates

I agree with benji; the cosmos will make sure he can be in the all-star events.

I'm not above cheering for a wild pitch/passed ball/balk/dropped popup here.

[Oldcity]

Nice 2-0 hack

[pebadger]

Is checking your swing on a ball right down the middle a bad sign? Can somebody help me with that?

[jason21nl]

That was a pretty nasty pitch

[Oldcity]

Make it stop.

[ilovebeer]

what a shock casey striks out.

[pebadger]

I may be out in right field with this, but I don't think Casey is seeing the ball very well right now and he's compouding it by overthinking and/or guessing badly.

[Raw Biz]

Sadly Melvin/Roenicke will continue to use McGehee's HR the other day to justify his roster spot/playing time for the next month, regardless of what he does.

[ilovebeer]

My gut says the Brewers will win in a walk off tonight

[pebadger]

Dear Bullpen,

 

We're not expecting a hitting miracle in the 8th, but please make the 9th somewhat watchable for us.

 

Your friends,

its tough enough to come off the bench and pinch hit let alone come off the bench when you're struggling, not to mention that was a pretty good strike 3 pitch

[Oldcity]

Look at this. Loe is useful against righties when he isn't overworked. Who'd have thought?

[TheCrew07]

Thinking about it... Braddock used to be 93 on the low side, I'm not sure a sleep disorder saps that much zip. I could be wrong, I just don't have any personal experience with it myself or having worked with any kids that were suffering from that sort of thing.

[endaround]

Come on Ron, time to empty your bench and not let Yuni hit

[ilovebeer]

Everyone, put your rally hats on!

[natronek8780]

This is exactly the part of the order I want up. We've got 'em right where we want 'em.
