2014-08-19 Blue Jays (Happ) at Brewers (Fiers), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 6-1]

[AZBrewCrew]

AZBrewCrew, pretty crazy weather today. I can't recall a monsoon starting at 7 am like today. It was a mess driving in to work/school during flash flooding. Driving home was better, but there's been two more waves to move through and another one is coming in about 40 minutes.

Its funny, im out by the White Tanks and missed most of the rain today, but it just rolled in about an hour ago and left a pretty good soaking. The running joke os that there is a bubble over me and storms literally go all around me...this one didnt though. ..finally

[coolcool]

Reds were up 4-1 and now it's 4-2 after a peralta hr, still in bottom of the 6th. The reds have blown leads every game for the past 30 games or so.

[LouisEly]

18 in a row and 2 hits against the team that is 3rd in the AL in runs, 2nd in hits, and 2nd in HRs (and 6th fewest Ks).

[folly412]

21 IP, 8 H, 3 BB, 25K, 0.52 WHIP, 0.86 ERA

 

Highlights each start: 8 innings, 14 Ks, 18 in a row retired

 

Wow

[Fear The Chorizo]

maybe Garza can be our late inning RH reliever...would put in blue, but honestly unless Lohse keeps scuffling due to his ankle what other pitcher would you take out of the rotation right now?

[LouisEly]

Gorzelanny hasn't pitched since 8/10... does RRR even remember he is on the active roster?

I'd love to see the lineup card to confirm. Maybe Narron struggles doing the calligraphy so RRR can't read his name.

[coolcool]

Reds up by only 1 after Cards hit an RBI with runners at 1st and 2nd before running into an out at 3rd. I think its probably a foregone conclusion that they'll blow another game?

[DuWayne Steurer]

Luc doesn't have a whole lot of stretch over there, heh.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Flashin' the leather this inning.

Just curious, looking at our team's top 5 batters, I think it's safe to assume they all will reach 70RBI or more when the season ends.(wanted to put 75+ for all) Where does that rank among Brewer teams? Have they had 75RBI+ by 5 players in a season previously?

 

And I looked over the Franchise stats. 6 times they've had 5players in a season amass 70 or more RBI in 1 season, with twice having 6players!

'82 had 5players at 97 or more! and Molitor had 71 for 6th over 70. Was too young to witness that season, holy cow!

[TGOTJ]

Gorzelanny is the new Wang.

That '82 team was STUPID powerful. 891 runs scored. 75 more runs than the 2nd best team in the league, and 165 more than league average.

[TURBO]

Speaking of Wang, I saw him pitch Sunday for the t-rats, he was absolutley hittable, and didn't look like he had anything special at all.

 

Was kind of a bummer as I was really looking forward to seeing him live.

 

He stuck around afterward though and signed a LOT of autographs even though he wasn't required to do so like the rest of the team.

[TGOTJ]

Manny Parra on to protect a one run lead against the Cardinals. He went to American River College here in Sacramento, so I always pull for him.

Hamilton hit a bomb to left field that barely hooked foul. Just looks like nothing can go their way.

 

The Reds announcers sound super bitter. They keep mentioning how bad the Cardinals offense is.

[Bombers]

42,221 at tonight's game. A Tuesday night sell out. Good work Milwaukee. Let's have Miller Park rockin into October!

[TGOTJ]

Kinzler in for that high leverage innings he's been asking for.

[TGOTJ]

Manny got it done.

[dlk9s]

Glad MLB Network has shown Cincy/St. Louis two nights in a row. The nation certainly can't get enough of that matchup.

Seasons with 5 players with 75+ RBI

2010, 1996, 1982

 

Season with 6 players with 75+ RBI

1987

[FVBrewerFan]

Coshun, I dare you to complete a sentence that doesnt end with "no question about that."

[brewcrewdue80]

Win! 2hits allowed by our pitching staff?!! Wow big change compared to @Tor. That's a much needed 5 in a row! And I'm feeling good about facing Dickey vs. our sluggers tomorrow! Yeah!

[coolcool]

Annnndd Reds with a 1 run lead going into the bottom of the 9th...

 

Edit woops only bottom of 8th.
