7/9/05 Brewers (Sheets) @ Braves (Davies) 6:05 CST sorry

[lithium75]

I guess a lot of things have been killing us

[nullbyte]

Crap.. only one well-hit ball and 2 runs have scored.

[molitor fan]

Adam LaRoche's father Dave always killed the Brewers too...Dave LaRoche was the famous eephus ball pitcher that made Gorman Thomas look foolish in the early 80's.

What? A hit with two outs and a RISP. Atlanta is soooo lucky.

The Braves have to be the best organization in baseball. They keep producing sooo many young players it is incredible. Yeah, they'll go out and get a Maddux, a Sheffield or a Hudson but they surround them with guys who can play. Just look at that home grown lineup.

 

All but Estrada, and they got him before he was a big leaguer.

 

Not to mention Francuer, Langerhans, marte...etc. And they dont normally sign FA, they trade for guys with other young talent...amazing.

[lithium75]

Aah, the Eephus, where have you gone. I can imagine a young Adam looking on with admiration as his father takes the mound in a major league game. As Dave unleashes his secret weapon, the slow, bending eepus, one thought goes through young Adam's brain: "Dad, you friggin dork, why do you throw that trash. Try bringing some heat."

Hey, Bill and Daron are rambling about hitting to the opposite field .... aaaand on goes the radio.

That's exactly the point i was trying to make. Maybe I sucked at it. haha. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/roll.gif

 

Nice work RyDogg

Great bunt from Ben. Let's hope it matters.....

[dogs with bees in their mo]

Alright Brady!!

[nullbyte]

Sweeeeet.

[ja002h]

A 2-out RISP hit!!??

[moofnelson]

oh my goodness! Two walks! A sac bunt by the pitcher! A two-out double to score two runs!! Maybe this team is turning the corner!! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Alright two line drives by Brady and a line drive double by O!

 

But what's with playing Rickey on the right field line?

[RyDogg66]

I dont know where Turner Field is in Atlanta, but according to weather.com all of Fulton County is getting pounded, as it is pretty much covered in "bright red"...we'll see if we get this one in.

[burniebrewer]

Look at Daron with that wacky mustache. That's quality TV, folks.

[lithium75]

Looks like we get to keep Greg Vaughn on the record books for most RBI before the break.

[moofnelson]

Remember when Jenkins was a good outfielder?

[lithium75]

Oh great, its only the 3rd, and we're already kicking the ball around. Usually it takes us until at least the 6th to lose focus on the game.

[Getpaddled]

hows Sheets look? just got back from work

[moofnelson]

Nice pitching Ben!!!

Started out a little rough.. Braves scored 2 runs in the first on two infield singles and a double.. Since then he's been better. Finally starting to get some Ks......

 

Edit: Oh yeah. He also laid down a great sac bunt that directly resulted in an extra run scored.

If you compare the stats of those 2 lineups position by position (replace Moeller with Miller and just because of the "type" of players they are...compare Lee to A. Jones and Clark to Langerhans) they are so similar it's scary. That just further prooves my point earlier today that they Braves really aren't that much more talented than the Brewers.

Wow, Mike, I was expecting you to get your eyes scratched out for saying that. But you even got a couple of replies that discussed and extended your idea.

 

In future, I will email you my posts, as you can put them up.

thanx for the info. Ill be in the drunk thread tonight if we dont pull this one off!!

 

drink the pain away

 

GO CREW

[lithium75]

Yeah, HOFFY, you took some lumps yesterday, by I still agree. I don't understand why the Braves win, and we don't. Getting the Brewers to stay focused for an entire 9 inning game is like getting a 6 year old to sit still for an entire 3 hour car ride.
