Way to answer!  

[DuWayne Steurer]

well. At least it'll be interesting for one more inning. 

[Caswell]

Just needed to get out of the first for Chi Chi. Stats show he settles after that. Tie game!

[folly412]

I don't know if we can keep up in a slugfest, but it would be entertaining.

[Brewce]

I guess this won't be a pitcher's dual???

 

[LouisEly]

Who would have thought that Chi Chi wouldn't look like the worse starting pitcher tonight?

Let's see how this plays out!  It's still just the first inning!

[Caswell]

Chi Chi needs to avoid throwing that sinker as much as he can! Threw three in the first, a ball and two hits. Get rid of that pitch!

[Brewcrew82]

I will drink to every Chi Chi scoreless inning tonight. 

[nate82]

Flaherty doesn't look right and his velocity is way down.  I don't think he is fully healthy right now.  

[Brewcrew82]

While our lineup is short on elite hitters, I do like the fact that there's no automatic outs anymore.

I'm looking to get slammed then.

Drink!

Uecker is talking about putting frozen cabbage or lettuce under their hats "back in the day" to keep cool on super hot days like today. I'm not sure Lane believed him at first. 

[DuWayne Steurer]

I can't imagine Flaherty is gonna be in this game too much longer.

[magnoliacrew]

Controversial take. I would have preferred Hiura to Renfroe at DH.

[Brewce]

It feels like not cashing in on all these baserunners is going to come back to bite us. 

[markedman5]

Right down the middle

Yup... Pitch 4. A 92 mph 4-seamer

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

This is just fine from Chi Chi, all things considered.

Offense will need to find that elusive hit against the Cards pen, I think.

[edfunderburk]

I don’t trust Suter in a close game 

We need six strong innings from Chi Chi

Can I still drink if someone else throws a scoreless inning? Like Suter for example?

I’m so glad Counsell is the manager instead of me (or any of you) ?
