2011-07-24 Brewers (Gallardo) at Giants (Bumgarner) - 3:05 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 2-1]

[pebadger]

Pirates/Cards going to extras. Would be nice to see Pittsburgh pull this out. They start their big ATL/PHI roadie this week, while the Crew and Cards compete to see who can best rough up the Cubs and Astros.

[natronek8780]

Welcome to Milwaukee Brett Carroll! Awesome play.

[Funketown]

Ueck loved that catch! How was it, for those of us who don't have video?

[pebadger]

Welcome to the big club, Mr Carroll.

[theavrock]

Very nice! Welcome to the bigs Mr. Carroll

[Oxy]

Nice play Kots..I mean Carroll. I like him already.

[topper09er]

Kotsay easily gets to that one....

 

That has to help his confidence, make a highlight play already in the 2nd inning.

[Hofbraunhaus]

That's one way to get the fans on your side. Great play by Carroll.

[bucksman4]

Full layout. Wouldn't have caught it if he didn't out-stretch his arm all the way.

[pmallon]

he is a little faster than Mark Kotsay...thanks Craig for that

[topper09er]

Looked to get a great jump and get up to top speed pretty quickly. Dove head first and caught the ball a foot off the ground. Very nice

[natronek8780]

Carroll smashed his hit last inning to third also... hopefully he can stick and be a nice addition to the Big Club.

[Yeti73]

Great catch. He hit the ball hard in his first AB too. I like the call-up because RR will keep playing it like he was with GoGo and that seems to be perfect.

 

Man, I wish Yo would be more efficient.

Whoa, 41 pitches thru 2? Not good.

[topper09er]

Yo hit the only HR ever by an opposing pitcher vs The Big Unit

[pebadger]

41 pitch 2-inning no hitter.

[natronek8780]

I don't mind that bunt strategy at this ballpark, hopefully this isn't where having Wilson in the 2 hole hurts us though.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Ok Hart, let's bunt Gallardo over to 3rd for Wilson. That seems like a great idea. Wouldn't surprise me if Roenicke called it actually, contrary to what Craig and Bill think.

[theavrock]

Not good Wilson. Need to get that run in.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Perfect example why I hate to see Corey bunt there. Wilson K's and Braun needs to single just to get a leadoff double in.

[trwi7]

Love playing for 1 run in the 3rd inning.

[natronek8780]

Not good Wilson. Need to get that run in.

I know we all shuddered when we saw him in the 2 hole. Lucroy would've been the best option probably or Carroll in a nice spot to see good pitches in front of Braun.

[topper09er]

Perfect example why I hate to see Corey bunt there. Wilson K's and Braun needs to single just to get a leadoff double in.

You seem to be implying there was like an 80% chance Hart would reach in his AB

[trwi7]

What is Bill watching? Great eye by Braun? That was way off the corner.

[theavrock]

These Giants fans are super annoying. None of those balls were strikes but they were oohing and ahhing like Braun was getting favors by the ump when he called them balls.
