Great.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Great start.

[AZBrewCrew]

So much for Cy Garza..

[yfinn6]

Yeah, where is the restart button? Nothing has been hit hard and it's 3-0.

[Funketown]

Garza? More like Gar...like the fish, no not like the fish they have sharp teeth and are quite intimidating.

[AZBrewCrew]

41 pitches. ..only one out. Ouch

[AZBrewCrew]

Estrada time

[DuWayne Steurer]

Don't agree with this move at all. There has been one hard hit ball this inning. The rest have been bloops, bleeders and dunkers. That Werth double was a ball 4" out of the zone and ankle high. Desmond's "single" was a ball he didnt even get a full swing at.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

It'd be a little less frustrating had they hit the ball hard, but they basically blooped Garza to death (the walks certainly didn't help, howwever.) I don't blame RRR for taking him out though. He was off the corners and already at 42 pitches.

[DuWayne Steurer]

He didn't move his foot in front of the plate until after he had the ball.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

With how this game has gone so far, I bet they overturn it, though it should definitely stand. Good play by Marco.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Whew. Call stands. Was that a manager challenge, or did they look at it themselves? I wasn't fully paying attention...

[DuWayne Steurer]

Why am I surprised that they got that call right?

 

Great play by Marco, and really good , heads up play by Luc to be aware of where he was in space so as to not essentially give the Nat's a 'free' run by illegally blocking the plate.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

On the plus side, there's still plenty of time. On the downside, I feel like the Brewers do more fence swinging when they're down a fairly good margin. Maybe it'll be different since they still have 8 innings to play with. Patience. Please?

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Luc makes me wish human cloning was legal...

[yfinn6]

So much swinging at the first pitch.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Bryce Harper looks like a porcupine.

[yfinn6]

Good job pitching to Ramos with the pitcher on deck. Now you should definitely walk the pitcher, Marco.

[wildcat83]

Games like this make burning Duke and Wooten in a single inning last night look worse. Three run lead with 6 outs to get. There is no way both should have been used.

[yfinn6]

I hate watching Marco pitch. Walks both of those guys and another run comes in. Just keep nibbling, Marco.

[wildcat83]

Are the forum pages taking FOREVER to load for anyone else? I'm on my IPad and other sites seem to load fine, but brewerfan pages crazy slow.

[AZBrewCrew]

Brewefan is usually slow for me...impossible to load on 4G. Have to be on wireless

[AZBrewCrew]

Braun!!!!

[folly412]

Where'd Scooter go? Is the Twitter word a joke or for real?
