9/30/05 Brewers (Davis) @ Pirates (Perez) 6:05 CST

[princeginterhallhelms04]

The Brewers coming off a 7-3 homestand head out on there final road trip of the year. Doug Davis takes the hill tonite with a quest to help the brewers complete there first winning season since 1992. Davis has been nothing short of dependable where as his run support has been sporadic at best. Coming in to tonite's matchup aganst the Pirates and Oliver Perez, Davis has a 11-11 record and a 3.85 ERA in 2005. A win tonite aganst the Pirates will push Davis to 12-11 and put a cherry on top of a darn good season.

The Pirates send Oliver Perez to the mound tonite. Perez's season has been nothing short of a disaster. A mix of bad outings and DL stints has put this Pirates ace out of what many thought could have been a great season. Entering tonite's matchup Perez has a 7-5, with a 5.97 ERA in 2005. Most of the damage coming before he went on the DL. Perez has been touched up by the Brewers he is 0-1 this season with a 10.80 ERA lets hope the good times continue to roll tonite and the brewers keep the march to 83 wins going.

You keep forgetting the date in the thread subject.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

Oops my bad! LONG night at UWW last night..

[BrewCrewForever]

Get DD some run support and that 81 win will be our tonight, then we go for over 81 the next two days. Lets do it boys!

[ja002h]

It's a must win!

Seriously, it'd be nice to get 81 tonight and then have two shots at getting 82.

There is absolutely no reason why we can't win two out of three against these guys... if only we were playing them at Miller Park, and not at our personal Waterloo.

 

Somewhat off topic, but the game hasn't started yet: Princeginterhallhelms04, how are the 'Hawks doing in the WIAC this year? Haven't really been following the Alma Mater in football much.

[And That]

We're facing a struggling pitcher, so the chances of the Crew winning just took a slide. If we can make Luke Hudson look good every time he throws against us, we can make Oliver Perez look good. I'll say the Brewers win, but against the Pirates' bullpen.

[UeckerAddict]

Opening day this year vs. Perez. I'm looking for a repeat performance.

 

Looking back at what happened opening day, do you think the Crew will start Cirillo tonight?

[hawing]

Well,

 

You know who I'd like to see get the win. But as long as it's someone in traveling gray, I'll be a happy camper.

 

Make this the night, guys. Justify my month-long tagline countdown.

[batboy37]

Jack Wilson alert! He's back.

[brettac1]

Perez scares me. He's awesome, and he pitched pretty well in his last start. I'll bet this is a nailbiter and, sorry hawing, a ND for Doug.

[jloos19]

I don't care if Jose Lima is starting, we still have to play in PNC.

[mpepy05]

Perez scares me. He's awesome, and he pitched pretty well in his last start. I'll bet this is a nailbiter and, sorry hawing, a ND for Doug.

Perez's control doesn't. I'm sure the brewers will come out swinging and Perez will graciuosly offer something to hit.

 

NOTE: Are the buccos trying to piece together an all lefty starting rotation?

[heeptom]

I am so excited for this game!!!

I am just upset I have to wait 4 hours to watch it.

Maybe if I start boozing now time will go faster.

I've already warned my friends I am watching the game with

I am either going to be ecstatic or extremely depressed so they have to deal with me. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

GO CREW!

[rluzinski]

This game is on tv?

[Harold Hutchison]

Didn't the Brewers tee off on Perez on Opening Day? Kip Wells, too, IIRC.

[brewers19]

This game is on tv?

 

Yeah, it was the only scheduled one of the series. But from what I hear, Sunday will be too?

[Frisbee Slider]

If you look one on the Brewers website it says tonight and Sunday.

Perez, Oliver (7-5, 5.97)

 

Isn't this guy supposed to be real good? I've seen the throws real hard and had a nasty breaking ball. Must be control problems.

[Milltownhooker]

mlb.com has Miller in the 8th spot

[jloos19]

He had a spectacular rookie season, with a high strikeout total. However, injuries and control problems have plagued his year this year. He still has very nasty stuff.

[JoeH33]

mlb.com has Miller in the 8th spot

Yeah I just saw that, maybe a late scratch or something.

[JB]

The JS today said Miller was scheduled to start the first two games of this series.
