2013-04-17 Giants (Vogelsong) at Brewers (Lohse), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 4-3; walkoff a Lalli pop]

[rluzinski]

OK, let's win this in the 9th and keep our crawlllll back to .500 going.

[topper09er]

We just need 1 man to reach to get to Yuni

We just need 1 man to reach to get to Yuni

 

Or Lucroy could just end it here..

[Gobias Industries]

Rickie Weeks is 2 for his last 34 (.059 AVG) with 17 strikeouts. How much more evidence do we need that he's not clutch, and certainly not worthy of batting in the #4 spot?

 

Enough is enough. He's God awful. Move him down in the lineup. Way down.

 

I think you are mixing up "clutch" with his general struggling at the present time. It's not that he isn't coming up short in late game situations only.

No but someone posted his career stats in the clutch and they were pretty bad. Something like a 715 OPS, 215 BA.

 

Can anyone remember a big walkoff hit Weeks has ever had? I vaguely remember something against Isringhausen years back.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

Good at-bat from Luc. Casilla has had to work

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

My gut feeling is telling me that if we win it will be because of Aoki, Gomez or Segura.

No, I'm not mixing anything up at all. He's struggling, and he's not clutch. Two different assessments, both germane to the subject at hand.

 

He's not clutch, therefore he should not be in the #4 slot. He's struggling, therefore he should be moved down to the bottom of the lineup, and not just out of the cleanup spot.

I understand the frustration, but Weeks liner easily could have scored two runs while Pence got two RBI's for a very weakly it grounder that found the perfect spot on the infield.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

hell yeah nice job luc!

[Yeti73]

My gut is telling me that we won't win...

Yes, May 9, 2008:

I remember being at Petco that night and seeing the score go up.

 

I could have sworn it was within the last year or two.

[AZBrewCrew]

Awesome bunt Gonzalez

[brwrsfan]

I'm very tired of us bunting and screwing up all the time.

[Oxy]

Lucroy is awesome. Just solid all around and does everything right but isn't spectacular at anything. Gonzalez, OTOH.

[The stache]

Score a run and win, even the bullpen couldn't screw this up! Let's go, guys! Three in a row sounds sweet!

[topper09er]

GAME OVER

[brwrsfan]

Isn't the rule two bases when a fielder throws it??? He was WAY past second by the time he threw it.

[Gobias Industries]

Yeah that should be ball game.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

gonzalez is an idiot. that would have been game.

[rluzinski]

Terrible call. Game over!

[jjkoestler]

Brewers got jobbed. Game should be over.

[AZBrewCrew]

Walk off YuniBomb?

[The stache]

What happened, I don't have the game on.

[Yeti73]

Love how Gomez knew that rule right away yet does some of the doofiest things on the basepaths.

 

If we don't win this, it is going to be complete bulldung.

[jjkoestler]

IBB to Yuni ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
