I've said this before, so it's not just a knee-jerk reaction, but i'd like to see Matt Wise close out games, and Adams in the set-up role.

Squarepusher please pick up the white courtesy phone. I foresee possible inappropriate words being used.

Well maybe the team will actually play better in the second half than in the first instead of starting off strong and tanking. It's a long season and they will win their share of games, but maybe their share is only 75.

Bad day for the relievers, this has probably been their worst outing of the year. It just feels like the Brewers can't put together a game where every part of their team (Offense + Defense) has a decent game. One part always seems to fall short when the other is trying to carry the weight.

Carrara's pitching. You may be saved! Take advantage of this opportunity!

[ja002h]

Another K for Billy. At least he fouled a few off.

[diomedeh2]

Honestly...the Dodgers have employed the best use of pinch hitting this afternoon that I've ever seen. Wow. I feel like they can sub anyone and he'll drive in a run.

 

That said...this is yet another cruel twist of fate for the faithful.

Vintage Bill Hall, swing and miss, K. Way to be a solid pinch hitter.

[madtownbrew]

I hate to be the pessimist, but if this game goes extras, game over - Dodgers win.

[DHonks]

Bill Hall's motto "working hard to be the new Jose Valentin, minus the walks"

[DHonks]

anybody wonder if Scarborough could do as well as Billy?

[Oldcity]

Why is Phelps in???

[CovingtonFan]

Madtown: You have the heart of your order coming up. Give them a chance. Maybe Carlos will pay dividends.

[Oldcity]

Why is Phelps in??? The last guy on the team, and he always seems to be pitching in high-pressure situations. Not a good feeling here.

[AJAY]

I hate Phelps.

[strawbossisevil]

And leave it to Yost to bring in Phelps to face people in the 10th, is this man braindead? Phelps is our WORST reliever.

I disagree. HR by Lee in the 10th to win it.

[endaround]

Last guy left--Obermueller has to go tomorrow, Botallico pitched yesterday.

[Gormans Gofer]

I believe a previous posted mentioned this, but Charlie Steiner of FSN in So. Cal just called Magruder "Chad" for about the 10th time. Think someone would point that out to him??

[strawbossisevil]

Don't we still have Wise in the pen? Why couldn't we throw him?

[ja002h]

Life sucks.

[gypcasino]

A three run homer by Lee hopefully.

 

ETA: Except he's due up 2nd.

[RyDogg66]

Why is Tommy Phelps on this team?

 

Will we ever have another game where we score in more than one inning?

[AJAY]

Unbelievable.

 

12 years and counting.

[strawbossisevil]

A three run homer couldn't happen in the 10th, at least not by Lee, a two run homer is a possibility though.
