8/18/05 - Brewers (Ohka) @ Astros (Clemens)

[lithium75]

Interesting how every year, exept for this one, has some reporter spouting off about someone on pace for 80 HRs, and I've heard D Lee being mentioned as a possible triple crown guy, but no one seems to mention how close Clemens is to 1.12, Bob Gibson's record ERA that has at times been listed as one of those unbreakable records in sports. I think a <1.12 era for a whole year would be a stunning accomplishment far more credit worthy than the triple crown.

[lithium75]

That lineup just screams offense...as in bad language can be seen as offensive to some viewers.

 

Edit: before people get too mad at me, I was referring to their #s against Clemens

Seeing Lyle's notes on Clemens was pretty cool....

[lithium75]

Give it up to Lyle for building up Clmen's pitch count. 8 pitches and counting, well a nine pitch at bat is pretty valuable against a guy like Clemens

[JoeH33]

At least he didnt strikeout the side.....http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

Even though lyle didn't get on base, at least it was a good battle.

[tomwopat]

why is this game taking place in a pinball machine?

[dogs with bees in their mo]

Just tuned in to see Magruder chasing a ball. There can't possibly be any good reason for him to be playing.

[JoeH33]

Big strikeout by Okha there, he needs to be really stingy tonight.

[markwitx]

no damage done.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

[markwitx]

1-0 astros...game overhttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[JoeH33]

Great.......With Clemens pitching that feels like it could be the game.

[heeptom]

Madisonbrewer-

 

That's probably true...unless we get to the pen early.

Here's to hoping though.

Something they forgot: "Clemens generally doesn't give up a lot of hits, a lot of home runs..." unless, of course, it's the All-Star Game, and you're the American League All-Stars.

 

(I think Manny Ramirez's homer is still in orbit from last year...)

[Member]

And, unfortunately, we're not the AL All-Stars.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

there goes the no hitter

[Member]

Whew! At least no no-hitter.

 

I'll bet two of those five pitchers shown in that graphic don't make the Hall of Fame.

 

(Glavine and Mussina)

[markwitx]

miller gets a hit!

[JoeH33]

In play, no out recorded

Me: "No duh!"

Wow, Ohka can't even make CONTACT trying to bunt??
