7/22/05 Brewers (Ohka) @ Reds (Ortiz) 6:10 P.M. CST

You've got to love running the team out of an inning, then pitching them out of the game in a span of 10 minutes! Fantastic.

[adambr2]

What makes Bill and Darron so confident?? "Oh, uh, yeah, no way 6-3 is the final score, definitely still got a great shot in this one."

 

How do you figure?? We have 10 outs left and haven't hit for squat since the first inning.

[brewers19]

And even Jenkins isn't getting hits anymore. We're screwed.

[brewers19]

I'm confused, Ned. Why is Ohka still in the game?

[PietroSanGiacomo]

Nothing makes you want to throw something through the TV like being down 6-3 to the Reds...and then having that @#(*%^@$& Bella Delina commercial come on.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif Someone at Clements better get fired for that thing before all is said and done.

 

7-3...TV, beware.

[brewers19]

What, you don't like Deli-themed operas? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

UGH! DFA Ohka!

Well, there weren't very many of us who really thought that we would sweep this series....

 

If you had to pick a game to lose, i'd say i would have picked this one...

 

 

I'm predicting a homer here by Griffey.. just the way its going

[adambr2]

Well, solid job tonight Okha, you only gave up runs in 5 out of the 6 innings that you pitched. Assuming Yost isn't dumb enough to put you back out there in the 7th.

[adambr2]

I wouldn't have said today. Not with how our bats have been and how much Ortiz has struggled. I would have said tommorow. With Santos pitching tommorow, I don't like our chances of winning this series. Very disappointing letdown if we don't.

[brewers19]

Gotta find something to occupy myself with now that they have to fix the cruddy Cincinnati electricity.

[xisxisxis]

Too bad they don't continue the game....Ned Yost may be at his best as a manager in a blackout.

[steve267268]

Darnit.. i just got on my break to watch the last three innings and now this happens.. i'll be lucky to get through the 8th now..

 

that means i'll miss our dramatic come from behind victory capped by Billy Hall hitting a blast to left....

[Ando Calrissian]

did the audio just cut out for anybody else (from the brewers website)?

 

edit: holy cow - they've got the manual generator going now for the broadcast. looks like this one is going to be done for the night. ugh. there's going to be an update on the game status at 8:40.

[brewers19]

Jeez, all power is gone. Bob is broadcasting through the telephone line.

[badgerfan.tgf]

Who would've thought that we'd get 12 off of the Cardinals very good pitching staff yesterday and only have 3 runs through six innings vs. one of the worst starters in baseball.

 

I'm getting the feeling we're destined to lose two of three to the Reds. I'm not sure Santos will fare much better than Ohka tomorrow, so if we're gonna win we better score about 8 or 9 runs.

[brewers19]

I'm still wondering what Ned was thinking. I would've pulled Ohka two innings ago.

[adambr2]

They can't end this one early, and call it a final, like a rain delay, can they? I mean, it's not our fault, we shouldn't lose our chance at a comeback just because the electricity went out in their stadium.

[brewers19]

No need to worry, they're playing. Scoreboard still out though.

[badgerfan.tgf]

If we can't get to Ortiz this inning after he's been sitting around for 25 minutes then the game's over.

[Ando Calrissian]

and the game is back...sans scoreboard in cincy.

[steve267268]

If anything, the Reds should take the loss since it is their stadium that is malfunctioning.. right?

 

It's like if there is a cancellation of a flight due to weather, then the airline doesn't compensate for a hotel or anything if you can't get another flight out.., but if it is due to mechanical malfunction, then they shell out big time..

 

Yes, let's hope thats how it is...

[steve267268]

Oh, there we go.. now maybe that gave Ortiz enough time to remember who he really is..

[brewers19]

And here comes the offense!

 

According to Jim, a 'Riverfront transformer blew'; whatever that means.
