lets go henderson finish this!!

[razzzorsharp]

One more here.

[The stache]

Ok game is on now, and I think Billy's explanation is going to make my head explode.

[The stache]

95 mph to ring him up. Wow, bringing the heat.

[davego]

Remember the "rounding 2nd and heading for first" ad campaign from the early 90's?

[The stache]

Please just one more out. Please....nervous here.

Rule 7.08(i) Comment: If a runner touches an unoccupied base and then thinks the ball was

caught or is decoyed into returning to the base he last touched, he may be put out running back to that

base, but if he reaches the previously occupied base safely he cannot be put out while in contact with

that base.

 

Segura never reached 3rd and I believe this applies to advancing a base then being fooled into thinking there was an out and having to go back to the last base.

 

What happened with segura is no different than a rundown. Segura is out and Braun now occupies 2B.

[PrinceFielderx1]

We have a really good new closer guys. Henderson is better than Axford at his best.

[sargennm]

What a weird, weird game.

[pebadger]

You cannot lose a game on a CS. Unless you're the Cubs.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

haha stupid cubs. only the cubs would lose the game trying to steal. hahahaha

[TURBO]

Henderson is better than Axford at his best.

 

That is debatable...

 

Who steals in that situation?

 

Nice win Crew!

wow, um 49 in a row. axford at his best was one of the best ever.

No, Segura is entitled to the base IF THEY ARE BOTH ON THE BASE.

I don't know about that. Henderson is alright. Axford was downright nasty in 2011. When Axford is at his best he's top 3 in baseball at the closing position.

[razzzorsharp]

Segura looked pissed after the game. I hope someone gets him to laugh it off a little, it's not that big of a deal (especially after a victory). The way he has played he can make a couple mistakes now and then without the lynch mob coming at him (hopefully).

Babe Ruth disagrees

[afeter]

i still can't believe captian bunt didn't bunt with rickie. rr is an enigma wrapped in a riddle wrapped in a bunt

Henderson knows how to pitch, he can throw strikes with all of his pitches at any time, his fastball can hit mid-upp 90's "with movement, which is key" > than Axford.

But you are saying that Henderson is BETTER than Ax at his BEST?

 

Are you sticking with that?

 

If so, we are going to have to agree to disagree...

[afeter]

if the brewers give aoki a translator they should provide one for weeks too

[TURBO]

This offense could be absolutely lethal when Ramirez and Hart return. I can only hope that Rickie has figured things out by that time, if not, hit him 8th.

 

Aoki

Segura

Braun

Ramirez

Hart

Lucroy

Gomez

Weeks

Pitcher

[PrinceFielderx1]

Turbo,

 

Henderson is more than capable of saving 49 games based on what I have seen. Just give him the lead heading into the 9th. Watch out Brewers fans we've found another good closer.

[xisxisxis]

So Segura basically made 2 mistakes. 1) going back to the base with Braun there (he should have let them tag him once Braun reached 2b; and 2) he should have stayed on the base until he was sure who was out.

3) He also tried stealing third with two guys on and no one out.
