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

[GB12]

So is he going to try and get a 7th out of Wolf now?

[fondybrewfan]

Great outing by Wolf today; badly needed.

[Schlitz001]

Wolf gets through another one.

 

Here we go, Braun, Fielder and hopefully Weeks.

[FidoMcCokefiend]

Well that was huge there. Nice job Wolf.

[dlk9s]

The Wolf move worked. Bring him back for the 7th?

Noooooooooo. I was cool with him for the 6th, but I think the bullpen needs to take over now.

[mtrebs]

Come on Crew...let's get some runs!

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Wolf has been on. Time to add the insurance runs left on the bases last inning and put the lead into a 4-6 run margin.

[Ennder]

It didn't work because we didn't score. It really isn't about Wolf, it is about maximizing your offense and trusting your very deep bullpen.

[B2k1121]

Alright let's score a lot of runs here so we don't have to talk about RR being scared.

[Trowekamp]

I was curious if TLR would have let Rhodes hit there if Jay got on.. makes sense according to Roenicke.. oh well maybe we will get to see Rhodes pitch to this 4 straight LH.. I have never been so upset about a 2 run lead in my life..

[jjfanec]

I am guessing Wolf comes back until he gives up a hit

[Bernman23]

How has it worked yet? Saito and Hawkins don't allow runs most of the time and the team probably would have scored a run by pinch hitting the previous inning.

[a3uge]

Ron's not looking like an idiot after that inning. Dominant after the lead-off double. I'll take Wolf in there keeping scoreless innings (avoiding big innings) in trade for another run. I think the Brewers can score more, and I think Wolf can go another. He looks good.

[chadomac]

I would've hit Gomez in Morgan's spot last time the Crew were up. You at least force them to burn through a lefty or you get Gomez vs. a lefty. You need Gomez in CF late in the game anyway... and I don't think Holliday would've tagged up just now and ran to third if Gomez made that catch and throw.

[brewerjamie15]

2 or more runs and I can see wolf coming back.

[jhart05]

At least let him start the inning.

 

Unless his spot comes up in the order.

[fondybrewfan]

The only way Wolf goes out for the 7th is if we score a couple runs; obviously that wouldn't be such a bad thing.

 

Keep tacking on runs here; can never have enough with the pop the Cards have.

 

RR definitely mismanaged the 6th; should have gone with Luc but got lucky, was OK with Wolf hitting, not OK with him bunting, and would have rather seen Gomez PH. Its in the past now; just win the game

This is the move I disagreed with as well

[owbc]

I agree that it made no sense not to PH Gomez.

 

But at this point we need scoreless innings, and Saito doesn't usually pitch on consecutive days. How many pitches for Wolf so far?

[endaround]

Why is Kotsay hitting?

[xisxisxis]

why is kotsay still in the game?

[Oldcity]

Alright now get Kotsay out of there. Get Gomez in center and Morgan in right.

 

And Wolf better not come back. Saito in the seventh is a must.

Only way? RR is still the manager.

[Yeti73]

Put in Gomez now!

[FidoMcCokefiend]

You MUST get Kotsay out now and get Gomez in CF and move Nyger to RF
