2014-08-06 Giants (Vogelsong) at Brewers (Gallardo), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 7-4]

[stoutdude04]

Does Krush always take practice swings with just his right hand?

 

Yes, well he does that everytime anyways.

 

Khrush looks to be pressing...hopefully not on this ab.

[stoutdude04]

Another warning track shot...wow.

[wildcat83]

That field regulation size or what?

[TURBO]

It's about time Ryan breaks out, this would be a good time for a 3 run shot!

 

Affeldt hasn't allowed a HR all season? Wow!

[coolcool]

Still not the Brewers night.

[TURBO]

poop.

[FVBrewerFan]

Does every team have like 3 relievers with sub-2.0 ERA this year?

 

Yes, and it looked like the Brewers would be one of those teams. Until Thornburg went down, KRod came back down to earth and Smith turned into a LOGGY. Flying under the radar during all this was Ryan Braun morphing into Kevin Mench.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Great baserunning rickie.

[TURBO]

double steal was quite dangerous there, but it paid off...

It used to be that you wanted to get the starter out of the game as early as possible. Now if you are losing when the starter leaves, the game's likely over.

[TURBO]

ARAMIS!

[wildcat83]

Boy has he been hot lately!

[owbc]

Just as I say that, huge hit by Ramirez!

[AZBrewCrew]

The pitch to Lucroy. ..juuuuuust a bit outside

Blue with the mench comment?

 

Unless you're talking about pitch selection.

This. People are wondeirng why offense is down. It's partly because the bullpen is not just the realm of 'failed starters' anymore. A lot of teams have REALLY GOOD bullpens now. Against some teams, you realistically have 6 innings to get your runs.

[stoutdude04]

Great baserunning rickie.

 

That's a common play when runners are on first and 3rd. I wouldn't blame anyone but Braun for swinging.

[wildcat83]

Geez Scooter, stop getting your bats from goodwill

[jason21nl]

Except his first move was back to 3rd

[Daubs]

The only thing I'd blame Rickie for is hesitating - either take off or stay.

[The stache]

Did the play by play just cut out for anybody else? Instead of hearing the tv guys, I'm hearing music instead. WTH?

 

NM, reloaded the channel, and it's back to Bill & Brian. That was weird.

[stoutdude04]

Ugh...second hit and run hurts us...

[TURBO]

I am not a fan of Hunter Pence.

 

EDIT: unless he gets thrown out trying to steal 2nd base.

 

[coolcool]

They're back to being balls!

[The stache]

Kintzler never makes it easy, does he?
