2012-08-31 Pirates (Karstens) at Brewers (Rogers), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 9-3]

[TURBO]

Gomez admiring that hit is one of the reasons I have a hard time getting behind him.

 

I usually love the guy, then he always seems to do something that makes me not like him again, like admiring a 2B off the wall instead of running... He just is not a very smart baseball guy.

[The stache]

Ok, 9-2...can I feel good about this lead?

 

After tonight, we should be 3 games under .500 guys. Last night's loss is still stuck in my craw.

Nice to have an easy win on Ueck's day. And really nice to have Ueck and Costas back to wrap it up.

Rogers wins! Brewers win! Hello, win column!!!!!

I think FSN should have a Uecker inning every game. A sweep would be great this weekend, but 2 out of 3 wouldnt be bad either.

Cool. The Brewers finally found a lead that Veras can't blow.

that was his 3rd in a row wasnt it? Not a bad way to end the season for him if he is indeed being shut down.

I have thought for years that Uecker should be dong TV and BA should be on the radio side. Not that BA is bad by any stretch but Uecker would be better as a TV guy.

As with every season, all the Brewers were missing was a few games against the Pirates.

The thing is that Uecker likes being on the radio more than TV. They pretty much give him free reign to do what innings he wants, etc. He probably wouldn't have that freedom on TV. I'd love to at least get an inning of him on TV, but with modern sponsorships, etc. it would probably be hard to work.

From what I remember, for a year or two in the late 70's the Uecker actually did a few innings on the TV broadcasts. Part of me thinks that he may have been involved with the home games back on the ill-fated SportsVue network way back in the day too- but that could have just been related to the fact that the volume on the TV games was often turned down with the radio on in my house.
