2011-10-09 Cardinals (Garcia) at Brewers (Greinke) - 3:07 PM CDT [Brewers win, 9-6; lead NLCS 1-0]

[MillerBombers]

Great at bats from the bottom of the order today. Nice poke Luc.

[Schlitz001]

I love to see Lucroy with clutch hits. Let's hear it for the bottom of the order.

[jjfanec]

Nice at bat Lucroy! It would be like RR to bunt right here

[GamelToe]

Who had Lucroy and Yuni leading the way for us today?

[B2k1121]

Morgan sighting

[igor67]

I'll take an RBI every other game and great defense from my catcher hitting 8th

[owbc]

Tony forces the other Tony to switch to a lefty.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Thank you Luc, for not leaving our fate in the bat of McGehee.

[a3uge]

What a tremendous at-bat. Let's also credit Yuni for the double and Gomez for the bunt to move him over. Good job from the bottom of the order to get the run back. Love this game so far.

[igor67]

I think Braun still gets credit for leading the way today.

[Skillz168]

While Yuni and Luc have been productive. I think braun's 4 RBI's are leading the way for the Brewers today. But the bottom of the order has been very good for them today.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Well so much for an answer back inning. Dreadful bottom of the order today.

I will strike my previous remark. Good production from the bottom of the order today.

[endaround]

Why not burn Green or Kotsay here? you know TLR is bringing in a lefty

[FidoMcCokefiend]

Now do you go to Casey with the LHP?

[jjfanec]

Who had Lucroy and Yuni leading the way for us today?

I would technically say Braun has lead the way with 4 RBI's but our whole lineup has been huge

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Why not burn Green or Kotsay here? you know TLR is bringing in a lefty

Maybe already setting up the replacement for Hart and put the reliever in Hart's lineup spot in case of two consecutive outs here?

[Oldcity]

Yeah I'm fine with Morgan here with a 3-run lead. Just put him in for Hart next inning.

[FidoMcCokefiend]

Not complaining, but odd sequence here.

 

I'd have burned Green, then hit Casey once they inserted the LHP.

 

Just weird with Casey in the ondeck, and then leaving Morgan in. Has to be a defense thing I suppose. I will say, I'm not sure that the difference between Morgan and Hart is enough that I'd remove Hart's bat...

[B2k1121]

We got the run but K-Rod still scares me

[Chio151]

We got the run but K-Rod still scares me

Me. too. I almost want to utilize the Tivo here to calm my nerves.

[Oldcity]

When's the last time KROD threw a first-pitch strike?

[ninja33]

Now do you go to Casey with the LHP?

I would guess Morgan stays in for Hart, and the K-Rod goes into the leadoff spot

[DuWayne Steurer]

Having K-Rod has been fun, and incredibly exciting, but my heart won't miss him when he's closing for someone else next year.

[jjfanec]

K-Rod finding the strike zone much better than Friday

[Oldcity]

Ump!
