2011-08-26 Cubs (Lopez) at Brewers (Wolf) - [Brewers win, 5-2]

Maybe it's been mentioned, but it's pretty neat seeing Aaron Rodgers sporting a Brewers cap on his exhibition game interview.

He-who-shall-not-be-mentioned never did that. More points for A-Rodg

Come on Randy, don't blow it.

[young guns]

Whether he's Betancourt or Betancourt, he still sucks.

Whats the story on this? I think I saw the game where they explained it, but didn't catch the first part where they actually explained it. I just assumed they were making fun of a misspelled sign or something.

[1992casey]

I had the WGN broadcast on for a while earlier in the game. Bob Brenly said something about a player wanting to hit it "all the way to Waukesha." That would be a foul ball.

[ilovebeer]

how about S Milwaukee

[ilovebeer]

I hope we clinch sooner than later, my nerves can't take much more.

[1992casey]

young guns, the final "t" in Betancourt is silent. This tidbit didn't

come to light until the Los Angeles series when one of the Dodgers'

Spanish-speaking broadcasters asked Yuni for clarification on the

pronunciation. During last Saturday's game, Matt Vasgersian

referred to Yuni as the ultimate player to be named later.

 

ilovebeer, South Milwaukee would be in foul territory, too. River Hills would work.

Hit and run with the pitcher batting. Nice job, Roenicke.

[jason21nl]

I guess I just don't understand why they are sending the runners. Just bunt him over like you always do. At least get the guy to 2nd with Hart up.

[ilovebeer]

ISn't River Hills north?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Hit-and-run with a catcher running and pitcher batting. **Shakes head and grumbles.**

[ilovebeer]

It would have worked if Wolf got the bunt down.

[tyguy20204]

Is it just me or has Roenicke been running quite a few hit-and-runs with the pitcher at the plate? I don't think many of them worked. It might be wise to revise that strategy.

[AdvantageSchneider]

A kid with a new toy pushing all the buttons to see what it does = RR.

No it wouldn't. Miller Park faces Southeast. Places like Cudahy and St. Francis would work.

[ilovebeer]

That was a nice game by Mr. Wolf.

[Oldcity]

Wow Saito missed his spot big time. Thanks Castro.

[ilovebeer]

Yes nice job Saito.

[Oldcity]

Grilli in for Pittsburgh. Hopefully he's as inhuman as he was the other day.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Good start for Wolf after the rocky beginning.

 

Top of the order needs to tack on several insurance runs to let the lesser bullpen arms close it out.

[1992casey]

Oops, you're right. Fair territory is south and east. South Milwaukee works. I like Kenosha better. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Philies and the Braves both lose.

[trwi7]

Ugh. Hate the bunt there, especially when Samafjslkgahlghalr hadn't thrown a strike yet.

[dlk9s]

Because of the wild pitch, we can just pretend Nyjer got the bunt down.

[dlk9s]

Braunie working on his OBP tonight.
