5/22/05 Brewers (Obie) @ Twins (Santana)


Posted

Here's hoping that the Brewers can continue last night's success in the Humpty Dump where they won 6-0.

 

MIL: RHP Wes Obermueller

? 1-0, 2.63 ERA in 2005

? 0-1, 8.38 vs. MIN in 2004

Manager Ned Yost said he considered giving Junior Spivey a day off Sunday, but that was before a glance at the numbers. Spivey is 3-for-8 in two games against the left-hander, but two of those hits are home runs.

 

Quotable

"At one point, [Lyle] Overbay was carrying the team. It seems like every day we've got somebody who is not afraid to step up. That's what's good about this team." -- Carlos Lee, on the Brewers' up-and-down offense

unable to watch this game, following online.....

 

what is the deal with Santana......?? 5 straight K's? Is he throwing upper 90's or??? I know he is one of the best but ...5 k's in a row? Of course 2 were Helms and Moeller...but still.

I think almost all of the K's have come on the changeup so far.

 

Helms and Moeller both struckout on fastballs right down the middle last inning. Lee struck out on a fastball in the 1st.

But of course Hardy is going to have like 20 ABS over two weeks showing Ned Yost means what he says when he tells Hardy to only concentrate on his defense.

 

I think after almost 2 months it's time to give up on a rookie. Yost is DEFINETELY the right guy to lead the Crew and their young guys INTO THE FUTURE.

 

1-0, Twins. Why did Carlos not even try to stop the runner???

Nice inning for Wes there... anyone else notice the ad board behind the batter changing just as he's about to release his 2-2 pitch? Looks suspicious to me... then again, maybe it happens all the time and I've just never noticed?

 

Now, let's start sitting on that two-strikes changeup, at least tie this thing up.

So all the people here that were jynxing Oby's perfect game five days ago are remaining silent today or something?

What? Does Santana have a no-hitter going? Oops, I said it.
