2013-04-14 Brewers (Estrada) at Cardinals (Garcia), 1:15 PM CDT [Brewers score, come back, go ahead, save and win, 4-3, 10 innings]

[pretendastronaut]

No time for graphics today. We'll call it a protest edition? A score some runs edition? A don't give up 10 runs edition?

Today's Brewers lineup via Tom Haudricourt:

 

RF Norichika Aoki

SS Jean Segura

LF Ryan Braun

2B Rickie Weeks

C Jonathan Lucroy

1B Martin Maldonado

CF Carlos Gomez

3B Yuniesky Betancourt

RHP Marco Estrada

 

I'd take some runs in lieu of a win at this point.

[jjgott]

New Brewers motto: "Rain, Rain, and pray for more rain." Only way we can go a day without a L. I agree I would take some runs as a moral victory today.

[hawing]

Starters for Everything That's Good About Baseball (ETGAB):

 

CF Jon Jay

3B Matt Carpenter

LF Matt Holliday

RF Allen Craig

C Yadier Molina

1B Matt Adams

SS Pete Kozma

2B Daniel Descalso

LHP Jaime Garcia

 

Oh, look, they're pretending to play with one hand tied behind their backs by resting Beltran and Freese.

 

Come on, Brewers; it's my mom's birthday and her first chance to watch you on her new birthday TV. Don't let her down.

[TURBO]

How much longer can we run Weeks out there at clean-up?

 

[chickinbrickin]

I agree about Weeks batting clean up. Why cant he just bat 3rd with Braun 4th? To me that is a much better option while they wait for players to heal.

[topper09er]

Both of our wins have happened in day games during the week...so I still have not actually watched a game that we won yet this year. Please change that

[chickinbrickin]

If I were a betting man I would put money on Adams taking Marco deep today.

Unless they changed the rule since last year blackouts still apply.

[Patrick425]

Dive Weeks...geez!

[jjkoestler]

FSN needs to stop playing that damn Wendy's commercial. People who have friends have never said "web friends." Web friends smacks of "I have a Canadian girlfriend."

[dlk9s]

The called third strikes thrown by Garcia have been very impressive. I think Maldonado should have been able to pull the trigger on his, but it was still a pretty sweet pitch.

[dlk9s]

Crud. Didn't think that would turn into a double play. Nice play by the 3B.

[topper09er]

With that GIDP Weeks now has produced more outs than ABs from the 4 spot this season

I'm sure they do, but a lot of bf.net friends are out-of-market and this may give many of them a chance to see a game (if they dare).

The odds of monkeys reproducing the works of Shakespeare by randomly hitting keys on a typewriter are greater than Weeks actually producing in the 4 hole. It is an affront to rational thinking and a disservice to the rest of the team that RR continues to slot him there.

I could handle it once a game...but when it plays twice between innings every commercial break..it gets a bit old.

[dlk9s]

Man, more rotten luck. The first hit of the inning wouldn't have been a double without funky spin on the ball.

[topper09er]

Jean Genie!

[AZBrewCrew]

Segura has an arm!

[trwi7]

Got a break on that one. Craig was safe.

[Eye Black]

Some great throws to the plate this year, nice cut and throw from Segura!

But they also say taste buds? Get it? It's a double entendre and that makes it funny no matter how many times it's played!

[chickinbrickin]

Nice relay... Small victories
