No, that's why I asked why?

 

Nice try.

 

Bud Dry?

 

When doves cry?

No, that's why I asked why?

 

Nice try.

 

 

That's why I had asked. I am watching the game on the bottom espn ticker at work. Seen it was the 7th inning and Veras was in. Had no idea as to Greinke's count or WHIP. Removing Greinke is fine, just wondered for what reason exactly and why Veras, other than it's the 7th inning. Thanks for all the replies regarding pitch count and apparent ineffectiveness.

Injury delay?

[cnycerveceros]

Didn't doubt K Rod for a second!

[Menotti80]

Lets get 2 runs guys!

[dlk9s]

Anyone know Braun's OPS after that double? Just curious.

.841 if I did the math right.

[Baldkin]

It's amazingly frustrating that this team has the worst ERA in the league and they lost their two best starting pitching performances of the year.

[burnzy24]

Gamel will take one in the ribs. No question.

 

Guess the Astros disagree with you.

Hey did you know that Greinke was at 115 pitches?

[cnycerveceros]

Cubs win!

[Menotti80]

Motte implosion

[Baldkin]

Cubs Win! Cubs Win!

J Mather singled to center, B LaHair and G Soto scored.

Blown save by Motte.

[FVBrewerFan]

Veras, coincidentally, also had 115 pitches in the7th inning

Heh. Sure felt like it.

[cnycerveceros]

Weeks is due. Amiright?

[chadomac]

I feel bad for rickie. I know he'll end up with decent numbers this year... I just wonder how much longer the slump will last.

[pebadger]

Now he's even more due. Look out Tuesday!

Lump in throat...

As much as I love Uke's HR calls..... his K-calls might be even better.

You mean like, "HAAAAAY struck him out swinging!"?

[Menotti80]

HAEY! Struck him out!

That's a great observation that I think I've always agreed with but never consciously realized it until you posted this.

The guy with the Brewers banner behind the right handed hitters was annoying me all game. Yeah you got a banner that goes in and out, and yes, you are on TV, but please for the love of all that is holy, stop it.

 

Maybe it was just me.
