2014-04-29 Brewers (Lohse) at Cardinals (Lynn), 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 5-4, 11 innings]

[topper09er]

Only minors but gotta love the names

 

Argyle Pierson

 

Carlyle Staab

 

and the guy who may have inspired Lynryd Skynyrd....

 

Sylvestor Carlyle

[jjkoestler]

Looks like Tyler Lyons may be coming in the game soon. That means the Cards will have a "mystery" starter later this week.

 

Do you think they will give Martinez a shot?

Oh crap...his name has "yle" in it.

[Dead Simmons]

This Brewer lineup reminds me so much of the Cards' scrub lineups that terrorized this message board. Aaron Miles, Skip Schumaker, Nick Punto, So Taguchi....you'd see the lineup posted and think, "OK, the Brewers can't lose this game, right?" 4 hours later your wife is wondering why you're screaming profanities in a dark room at your computer

One of those 3 you just named is in the top 50 all time Card hitters. Would you believe it?

It seems that "Kyle" has become a big first name in baseball. A mystery why. I can't think of ANY big celebs to kick that popularity off.

Based on what?

I don't think so.

[pacopete4]

We need more batters whos names end in yle. They are just so clutch.

 

 

My name is Kyle and I'd be more than happy to help out.

I think like 500 games...career BA.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Is it Skip? I remember him carrying a decent BA for a few seasons...

Now that you mention it, I think he was on the list too, behind Taguchi. Both in the .290's.

This is false, Schumaker hit .288 for the cards, top 50 ends at .291

[Eye Black]

I really wish our camera at Miller Park could sit more central like the Cards have. Much nicer to watch.

+1. If I could make one upgrade to Miller Park, this would be it. Watching games from a well placed centerfield camera is infinitely more enjoyable for me.

[topper09er]

Cant believe I missed Daryle Ward

I said the same in the IGT last night. This couldn't be too hard of an upgrade to make. Heck, they park a truck in RF and motorcycles in LF...all 50 feet in the air. I'd rather see this angle then from in the hole. MP's angle is REALLY far to the right.

I said I "think" Shu was on it. I know So was. I followed your link to Baseball Reference, the same place that this afternoon I accidentally found myself on. I could not find "career BA" on that page.

 

But the point is moot anywho.

[Fear The Chorizo]

gotta try and squeeze this inning out of Lohse...

[Dead Simmons]

gotta try and squeeze this inning out of Lohse...

Why? Your pen is lights out.

[bigredrobbo]

....and possibly on fumes!

they won't be in August/September if they keep appearing in games at the rate they've been at in April

Ahhh...OK

[pacopete4]

Time for Rickie to knock one outta here.

[DocLuna7]

I would really like a run this inning to get Lohse a hopeful W before handing it over to the pen.

[Dead Simmons]

I don't know about you guys, but I can't take another extra inning game!

[DoubleSwitch]

Lohse continues to rack up the K's. At what point does this stop being an early season fluke and start being another dimension he's added to his game.
