2011-10-13 Brewers (Wolf) at Cardinals (Lohse) - 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 4-2; NLCS Tied 2-2]

[ProfMath]

I'm sick of the ineptitude of the Brewers pitchers to hit HR's. This games over. I'm going to bed.

 

BTW, I don't know how to make that blue : )

[MillerBombers]

Now lets keep the momentum for once.

No one mentioning all world defensive catcher Molina was terrible at blocking the plate

I'd have to go back and look, but I'm thinking that the kind of slide Hairston made is hard to block. I mean, Clutch Yadi was blocking the plate well enough that Hairston felt he had to go around him, I guess.

[B2k1121]

Wolf needs to start taking advantage of that outside corner

 

Nevermind, I guess he doesn't get it.

[brewerjamie15]

I got locked outta here for a few minutes.

2 runs for the Crew!

 

Now a fast St.L inning would be nice.

[Ennder]

I sure hope the pitch track is off or something because this is the most lopsided zone I've seen.

He left the entire back of the plate open. He was really far forward. Almost like he really didn't expect a play since it was stupid to send Hairston on that ball.

[dlk9s]

By the way, didn't games at Busch have the camera in dead center during the regular season? I miss that.

[jjfanec]

I hate complaining but this zone is not the same for both pitchers. Maybe it has to do with Wolf being a lefty and the delivery being different

[chickinbrickin]

Way to back up the runs you just got Randy. We need to steal this one, and this series is far from over.

[a3uge]

Top of the line-up. Time to kill. Keep taking advantage of those early count strikes down the middle.

[jason21nl]

There were two pitches that were on top of each other, one a strike, one a ball. This zone is not even close to the same for both pitchers

[MillerBombers]

Nothing is gonna fire this team up more than Morgan getting a hit to start this inning.

Right after Kotsay's AB in the top of the 1st, I was cursing that we didn't have a RHP on the mound (not anyone's fault, of course, just happenstance), because I knew the zone wouldn't be the same. It just sucks.

[ELCABALLO45]

Just put up a 8 spot Brewers, I know you want to.

[jhart05]

Big inning coming up.

 

Top of the order.

 

Take the series back right now!

[Brewer Fever]

Getting men on base is key here. Lohse just isn't the same pitcher with baserunners.

[fondybrewfan]

Whatever happened to the Morgan who slapped singles over SS? One of those would be nice right here.

[Oldcity]

Let's go Lohse is garbage and Wolf looks sharp. Crooked number this inning.

 

This is a terrible strike zone that isn't the same for both teams.

[brewerjamie15]

Looking back at my score card, there's only been 8 outs to center. Seems like more than that to me.

[Thundercat32]

there ya go fellas, lets keep the positivity going!

It is why it is hard for me to get really angry because the way the ball comes in is completely different so it is hard to be consistent for the ump. Now that said he is still doing a poor job

[brewerjamie15]

bunt for a hit!

[dlk9s]

It's probably just selective memory, but Plush seems to hit a lot of balls really hard foul to right.

 

And as I type that, he goes to left!

[MillerBombers]

There we go baby. Beastmode, take back this series now!
