[adambr2]

Welcome back Jett! C'mon Santana!

[yfinn6]

Welcome back, Bandy. Santana up, c'mon!!

[topper09er]

How often do you see a guy rounding first while looking behind himself

[lcbj68c]

Maybe without counsell, we'll see a successful attempt at manufacturing a run in the 9th inning.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Nice way to show up when called up from AAA by Bandy.

[trwi7]

It's frustrating, but I just can't stand the idea of having a machine call strikes.

 

The umpire would still be there to actually call the strike.

[OnaBadger58]

Torres pitches a clean inning, and Bandy singles against the nasty Rivero. Shows what I know about double-switching, I guess.

I liked your idea better too

[adambr2]

Not expecting anything from Thames.

[DuWayne Steurer]

13 hits and 3 runs to show for it

[OnaBadger58]

Not expecting anything from Thames.

He can't turn on 92 mph let alone 100

Yeah I got that, my problem isn't with who actually says strike, it's with a machine determining it.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

A machine that gets it right.

[adambr2]

Just your typical rally-tease from the Brewers. Still 0fer when trailing after 8. But they sure are grinders!

[rcc]

This series is doomed with these umpires.

You enjoyed seeing a middle aged man with a huge ego determine it tonight?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

13 hits and 3 runs to show for it

That's the stat from tonight. Failure to truly capitalize on run scoring opportunities has cost the Brewers three straight games.

[markedman5]

13 hits and 3 runs.......that's hard to do.

[OnTheBlack]

A machine that gets it right.

 

 

So...people in favor of a machine aren't looking for one that just guesses?

[Matt1969]

And the current free fall continues. Need to right the ship ASAP...

[MrTPlush]

Where can I pick up my Keon Broxton Colorado Springs jersey? Do we know the jersey number yet?

[DuWayne Steurer]

This series is doomed with these umpires.

 

The umpires did a terrible job tonight. The brewers had 2nd and 3rd with none out and 1st and 2nd with one out and never moved an inch. You have to get guys in. Umps may have cost the brewers a run or 2, but the brewers cost themselves just as much.

[adambr2]

Since the first game since the break, haven't scored more than 3 runs in a game. It's not the pitching .

[MrTPlush]

And the current free fall continues. Need to right the ship ASAP...

 

What a free fall. We have lost 1.5 games in the standings. Time to tear down and rebuild again.

[WolfPack]

Hey welcome wolfpack! What brings you to these parts?

 

thanks...maybe I should leave now, lol

 

have been reading the forum for a few years, posting mostly on TimesFour but not much baseball discussion there.

 

Cubs better lose tonight or sphincters in Beertown will be tightening up

[superfly]

If we're going to deal it needs to be done now. No sense in letting it get out of hand and throwing the division race away.
