2012-05-11 Cubs (Garza) at Brewers (Wolf), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 8-7, 13 innings]

[pebadger]

With the exception of the two walk-offs, this is the most excited I've been about any single Brewer moment all season.

[TURBO]

I knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 run double!!!!!!!!!

 

That is why I want Luc batting second. Guy's clutch!

 

Weeks bats 2nd.

[GamelToe]

Fantastic job by Roenicke there. Not often you see the backup catcher thrown in there in the bottom of the 7th.

[dlk9s]

You know it's 2012 when the moment Lucroy hit that ball, you think, "Great, K-Rod is going to come in and spoil the party."

[Yeti73]

I feel a big hit coming....

Well played!

[Schlitz001]

Really though, credit RR. He had a few options there and he chose the right one.

[The stache]

LOL. That's exactly what I thought as soon as Luc was thrown out at third.

[jason21nl]

RR pulled the right string there.

[cnycerveceros]

Wow, that was bad.

[The stache]

Yup, I'll give Ron credit there. Sending Luc in instead of Nori was the right call.

[The stache]

Whew. Good inning, K Rod.

 

Now, let's get another run going into the Axford 9th.

[Yeti73]

If your kid is watching this game be sure to teach them to not catch fly balls like Corey.

[derflotr]

Yup, I'll give Ron credit there. Sending Luc in instead of Nori was the right call.

Seriously, most managers go with the lefty, and certainly not the backup C. It was a good decision regardless of the outcome.

[Yeti73]

DeJesus is the Tony Plush of the Cubs.

[owbc]

I've never seen Conrad bat before. He looks like he's trying to hit it 500 feet.

[Schlitz001]

Brooks Conrad looks like Brad Nelson with less Iowa.

[The stache]

Ax needs to be on tonight.

[cnycerveceros]

It would be really nice to see Rickie drive in this run.

[jason21nl]

Weeks has pretty much no shot up there right now.

[cnycerveceros]

oh right, it's got to be an adventure. Nearly forgot that it has to be an adventure. All. The. Time.

[Yeti73]

Wow, he was out. Ishikawa got his foot back on there.

[owbc]

Looks like the right call.

[GamelToe]

ELEVATOR ELEVATOR WE GOT THE SHAFT

[jason21nl]

If its not one thing its another.

[cnycerveceros]

Looked like the right call to me, even after the replay.
