[pretendastronaut]

Here's to hoping for a victory tonight, so we don't account for half of the Astros victories in July.

[pebadger]

Thanks again for the effort, pa. Guess nothing to talk about other than Not Front Row Amy.

[AZBrewCrew]

Can the bullpen hold a 7 run lead tonight?

[logan82]

Brewer boycott night.

[AZBrewCrew]

Pirates have a no-no through 7

[Hellwig]

Yeah previous seasons really should matter when determining a current seasons gold glove winner... What a joke

[Hellwig]

How come Lucroy isn't in the staring lineup tonight?

[Hellwig]

Watch out! The bullpen is coming in at the top of the 8th!

[Hellwig]

Even though Henderson got out of the base loaded jam, he should have been yanked after he loaded them! Set an example!!

[AZBrewCrew]

I think they are slowly working Lucroy back in,hence the day off

[trwi7]

It's amazing that Keuchel guy has an ERA under 6. 11 more walks than strikeouts, almost 2 homers per 9 innings. That guy is brutal to watch pitch, though I'm sure the Astros front office doesn't really care right now.

[brewmann04]

wow is Gomez on fire hope this is glimpse of him turning into a star.

[sdcheezhd]

Ueck was saying that Keuchel's first couple of starts were good. If you look at the last 3 or 4 the stats are probably appropriately brutal.

[AZBrewCrew]

I'm finally glad to see some fire in RRR

[MVP2110]

So who is in charge now? Sedar?

[adambr2]

Somebody please come in and tell me again about how great MLB umpires are in general.

[Hellwig]

I really wish Roenicke would show this kind of fire in the games where the pen were completely imploding not just in a 9 run game...

[Lee16]

2-0 now without the obvious clubhouse cancer that was Stan Kyles.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I guess playing the Astros is kinda like sending the entire team down to the minors for three games...I think we'd all agree they needed that.

 

Now don't get too carried away you Brewers...we've got some draft positions to worry about.

[TheCrew07]

I just felt compelled to post merely to push the thread to an extra page.

[owbc]

That was my one and only Brewers game at Miller Park this year. It was nice to see a win, even if the game wasn't close. Will catch the Crew again next month in Miami.

[hawing]

I'm bummed that I didn't know owbc was in the house, as I suspect he didn't sit far from the hawing party at all. But this game was such a soothing respite from all the crap we've absorbed this year - both on-field performance and weather. I was grateful for it.

We were in 418 (my father still has season tickets there) so you were probably one section over. Usually I announce when I'm going but I was doing stuff all day and got to the game late. Will be back for a wedding in Sept 2013 so hopefully the Brewers will be in town that weekend.

[hawing]

Yeah, I remember that location from the last (first) time you and I crossed paths at MP. That was also a win over the 'Stros. Well, I must have walked behind you several times Tuesday night.
