2014-06-12 Brewers (Lohse) at Mets (Niese), 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 5-1, 13 innings]

[DuWayne Steurer]

G'nite Boys. Nice win.

 

Don't say that yet. We still have '20 minutes of terror' to wait through.

[yfinn6]

bats coming alive all of a sudden. Who would have known the last guy in the Mets bullpen would have sucked this bad.

 

They still have Dana Eveland!

 

Torres' arm has to be shot. I almost feel bad for him.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Gomez is going to do something insane at the all star game right? It's just a matter if it's awesome insane or facepalm insane.

 

I fully endorse either of these options.

[DoubleSwitch]

when it rains it pours i guess

Gomez hat trick: (1) steal a home run, (2) hit a home run, (3) get in a fistfight with Derek Jeter.

[yfinn6]

Even though this game is likely lost for the Mets, I guess... well nevermind, Torres is out. It's been a while since I've seen Eveland in a game.

[sargennm]

Say all you want about RRR, but what Terry Collins, how poorly did that dude manage this game?

[RobDeer 45]

Wow I felt bad for Torres there as well.

[dlk9s]

I don't care how hard he's hitting the ball. He's not contributing anything in the #2 spot.

This doesn't really make sense.

[RobDeer 45]

Wow I felt bad for Torres there as well.

 

And they just showed him on the mets broadcast punching himself in the head. Awesome!

[DoubleSwitch]

Who else can remember a time when they though Eveland was going to be a total stud?

[dlk9s]

Say all you want about RRR, but what Terry Collins, how poorly did that dude manage this game?

I don't know, man. His decision to bring in a reliever to specifically deal with Irving Falu worked.

[RobDeer 45]

Is it legal to quote yourself in a thread?

I like the first 2, but make No.3 a fight with Matheny or Molina in the NL dugout and you're getting more to what I was thinking.

[dlk9s]

I like how the bullpen strategy is "one more run, don't put K-Rod in."

eh...

 

that wasn't an awful move considering all the brewers best bench guy is a lefty

 

the pitcher has to be declared before the batter so he had to bring in the lefty to keep gennett out of the game

[The stache]

Lucroy is playing at a different level this year.

 

I hope you guys are filling out All Star ballots for him. He deserves to be there. But the rest of the country will just mash Buster Posey and Yadier Molina because they can't think for themselves.

I could get Irving Falu out.

[SRB]

HBP RBI? There's the Rickie we know and love!

[DuWayne Steurer]

that should hold up....

[wildcat83]

HBP RBI? There's the Rickie we know and love!

 

Loved the "and there's strike two" call from BA

[tigerbrew]

What a Win ! Brewers snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, back to 13 games over .500 !

[pretendastronaut]

We didn't reach 40 wins until July 20th last season.

[The stache]

Luc with 25 doubles a triple and 5 HR. That's 31 extra base hits in 62 games played. Pretty darned impressive for a catcher! .912 OPS. Wow!

[sauveb]

I know the cool thing is to tout Gomez for MVP but if Luc can keep this up throughout the year how can he not be in the mix.
