2013-04-02 Rockies (De La Rosa) at Brewers (Estrada), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 8-4; 162-0 dream shattered yet again]

[adamb100]

4 outs to go.

[PrinceEatMeat]

3 IF hits in the inning. Incredibly lucky.

[The stache]

Jesus could the Rockies get any luckier this inning? Fudge.

[pebadger]

Yu perfect thru 8. Brewers not.

 

FYI: There is a free live look-in on teh home page of mlb.com if you want to watch the 9th.

[The stache]

Sigh. Meet the new bullpen. Same as the old bullpen.

Sigh. Meet the new bullpen. Same as the old bullpen.

Well, they were good yesterday, Kintzler was great, and it's not like the guys have gotten rocked this inning.

[The stache]

If Yu finishes the perfect game, 14 strikeouts has to be near a record in a PG.

[brwrsfan]

Tough to blame this one on any of the relief pitchers. 3 infield singles in one inning is pretty ridiculous, and I still think Gonzalez should have gotten an out on that play, the bat really wasn't that close to him.

 

The only ball hit well all inning was by Tulo and that was an out. Only 2 balls have even left the infield and they have 3 runs in and 2 men on. Just bad breaks.

Freakish inning

Can't control luck.

Yeah, this is not on the pitchers. This is on the Rockies having about the luckiest inning you could conceive.

[brwrsfan]

The Rockies bullpen is supposed to be pretty bad....

[trwi7]

While were on the subject, is anyone else annoyed by the Fox Sports Wisconsin girls?

 

Sage is fine with me but the whole idea of having these girls is stupid. What exactly is the point of them? Eye candy for the guys watching?

[The stache]

Looks like Yu's tied Koufax for the most K's ever in a perfect game. So, he'll break it. It's the Astros.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Sigh. Meet the new bullpen. Same as the old bullpen.

 

Gonzalez is the only one to struggle, and even then it was mostly luck. Badenhop did all he could do there. Gave up an IF single and a bloop single.

[The stache]

Ya, I know. I'm just looking more at the results this far. None of those balls were exactly scorched. It happens sometimes.

 

Putting on the PG just to jinx Yu

Just in time to watch our old friend Jose Veras.

[AZBrewCrew]

Jose Veras looks the same in Houston as he did in Milwaukee.

[TURBO]

Fantasy Tip:

 

Start all starting pitchers when they face the Astros.

 

ALL of them!

[dlk9s]

Someone on a sizable poker message board I frequent/mod just noticed Front Row Andy.

[owbc]

The Marlins only managed 3 hits yesterday. They will probably get no hit at least once this year also.

[Ennder]

While I think the bullpen is going to stink this was death by a thousand paper cuts. Those types of outings are just gonna happen sometimes, that is how BABIP got its start~.

[chickinbrickin]

Can't put that on the bullpen. Only issue was gonzo issuing a leadoff walk. Rest of the inning was pure luck for the Rockies.

[The stache]

Tom Grieve's drone makes me long for Bill Schroeder.

 

Grieve could put somebody hopped up on meth to sleep.

Yup. Just gotta grin and bear it and hope the bats can score some runs. God bless the 162-game season.
