@AdamMcCalvy

The word is it's just a day off for Braun.

[hawing]

Ah, geez, you guys, Bartolo Colon is **40**.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

hopefully the top 4 have a good day. the rest of that lineup is weak. is this game blacked out? i dont see it listed on the guide

[TURBO]

wow, that is a pathetic looking line-up.

 

Ugh.

 

As much as Weeks needed to be sat down, I am surprised RRR has the sack to do so after he finally started to show some life at the plate. Seems a bit counter-productive to the psychi of Rickie to take the bat from him now, after he seems to be coming around. (yes, I know, righty left match ups, blah blah blah)

ironic isn't it? RRR plays Weeks when Weeks clearly needs to be benched. now that the guy is doing something he gets benched. RRR doesn't make a lot of sense.

moronic isn't it? RRR plays Weeks when Weeks clearly needs to be benched. now that the guy is doing something he gets benched. RRR doesn't make a lot of sense.

 

Made a change for you...lol

lol that's better.

[fondybrewfan]

So what inning does Yo hit 100 pitches today? I am calling the 5th.

[Outlander]

I predict smooth sailing for Yo today, 7th inning he'll reach 100.

[Polish Falcons]

I don't think this game is being broadcast on Wisconsin Television with Rock and BA. Mlb.tv has the video feed overlapped perfectly with Uecker. After so many times turning the volume off on the tv while listening to a delayed radio broadcast, this is like a dream come true.

[hawing]

Scooter on 1st with a BB! Scoooooooooooter!

(Based on the small sample I observed Tuesday night, fans enjoy saying the word "Scooter.")

[pretendastronaut]

Stats to make you jump off a building:

 

This is the first game since May 21st that the Brewers have scored in the first inning. In that stretch, Brewers opponents have scored in the first inning eight times.

[pretendastronaut]

Thanks Gameday!

 

That was pitch number 45 for Yovani Gallardo; his effectiveness may start slipping, as he holds opposing hitters to a .311 average in the first 45 pitches but they hit .351 off him after that.

[markedman5]

1 st and 3rd nobody out and can't score......beat goes on.

 

Yo pitching great today 1-1 through 5.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

dumbest team in baseball by a landslide. why would you send the pitcher on a play like that? i'll be glad when that moron RRR gets canned. im tired of watching this team give away outs on the basepaths

[TheCrew07]

I see Gallardo is pitching into the 7th, be still my beating heart!

 

edit. crap I jinxed him.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

at least he made it to the 7th inning

[markedman5]

7 was too much to ask for.......that should just about do it for our feeble offense

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

well that turned to crap pretty quick

[Outlander]

With credit to Ron Burgundy, Boy, that escalated quickly. I mean, that really got out of hand fast!

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

it went from tie game to still in it game to getting blown out game in a span of 5 minutes

[brewmann04]

that called Brewer baseball

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

attendence is getting smaller. i heard a let's go oakland chant. how low the brewers have fallen. a's fans can be heard cheering just as loudly as brewer fans at the park. a's dont have fans lol

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

thornburg in the game
