2012-05-04 Brewers (Greinke) at Giants (Lincecum), 9:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-4]

[TheCrew07]

This is reminiscent of my Pee-Wee pitching debut way back in '77, except I plunked more guys and never pitched again. And I never struck somebody out.

 

Well done sir, this made me laugh.

[dlk9s]

Hooray for the human element in baseball.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Roenicke is the biggest wimp arguer ever. What a weenie.

 

Seriously. Show some balls. Make a scene.

 

Anything to try and shake this group out of the funk they're in.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Anyone notice Conrad being cheered by Giants fans? I take it they remember him gift-wrapping Game 3 of the 2010 NLDS for them.

[Glennron]

I was sure Aoki was hurt when he sort of stumbled backwards after hitting the bag.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Speaking of being hurt, did we ever hear anything on Gomez? I haven't seen any update on his injury.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yes! There we go Rammy! Woo! Big hit!

Looks like maybe a manager getting ejected has nothing to do with whether or not a team can rally

[Glennron]

Not sure I'll be able to stomach Veras and K-Rod again. Please prove me wrong.

[phnxcrew]

Please K rod, if we get to you, don't keep getting kotsay'd. You're nearing the 2012 bullpen scapegoat status.

[dlk9s]

I'm going to take my chances and head to bed here on the east coast. I'll keep my fingers crossed in my dreams.

[PrinceEatMeat]

If this were last season, everyone would've gone to sleep after that Ramirez hit. Now, everyone stays awake and nervously watches.

Or, maybe if RRR had argued like a man, we would have scored four runs instead of only two. I'd tend to agree with you, but I wasn't trying to make that point originally. It's just hard to watch you manager come out and be such a pansy, really annoying.

[TooLiveBrew]

"Pansy", "wimp"... I prefer "cordial" or "considerate"!

 

But yeah, I would love to see RR just go ballistic at some point, if only out of curiosity.

[TURBO]

but his players love him...

[TooLiveBrew]

I guess I kinda get the feeling that if RR ever inadvertently spit on an umpire while yelling at him, he'd fish a handkerchief out of his pocket & wipe the spittle off the ump's face... and then ask to hug it out.

[valpocrewsader]

I switched from "in-game beer" to "victory whiskey" halfway through that inning. Got faith about this one....

[PrinceEatMeat]

Veras stepped it up. Time for K-Rod to do the same. I'd appreciate some insurance runs though anyway.

[TooLiveBrew]

Oh, I like "victory whiskey". I'm joining you.

[TooLiveBrew]

So... K-Rod time. [nervous laugh]Totally not nervous, you guys![/nervous laugh]

[PrinceEatMeat]

Finally saw an update on Gomez. Day-to-day with a tweaked left hamstring. Don't like the sound of that.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Buckle up, friends.

[Glennron]

You'd think K-Rod would pay more attention to base runners given the frequency he's pitching with them present.

[TooLiveBrew]

K-Rod's stuff actually looks really good so far.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Smooth so far. Ax needs to keep it going!
