[ja002h]

but do you have express written consent of major league baseball?

 

Ah, but he's not rebroadcasting or retransmittinghttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[DHonks]

Hart with another hit. Not showing much power, but that'll come over time

[ThePurpleStorm]

Finally, a few baserunners.

[brewers19]

Unfortunately, they didn't get home.

[DHonks]

Ben looked good after the first inning. But boy that first inning was harsh when every pitch was above the belt and the curves were terrible

[DHonks]

come on WGN, even spring training games should feature radar gun readings

[mneskarous]

Is that Peter Gammons sitting in the front row behind the catcher?

[ja002h]

Obie cruisin..

[brewers19]

Okay, I've decided that Obie gets the 5th spot.

[DHonks]

Is that Peter Gammons sitting in the front row behind the catcher?

 

could be

[molitor fan]

Yes, that is Gammons in the first row, and it looks like it could be George Will next to him.

 

Also not sure waht the outcome of this at bat will be, but Prince is starting to get zambrano measured......edit, and a nicely hit liner.....

[ja002h]

Okay, I've decided that Obie gets the 5th spot.

 

Yeah, I think between Obie and Glover, one gets the 5th and one goes long relief, and Helling gets cut or optioned or whatever.

[ja002h]

great AB by Prince, too bad the liner got snagged.

[ja002h]

Wow, nice play by JJ

[brewers19]

Oh my lord! Look at Hardy! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eek.gif

[ThePurpleStorm]

Hmm... Who knows? Maybe Obie will be a pleasant surprise this year.

[ThePurpleStorm]

He definately gets it before Hendrickson.

[brewers19]

How's Obie doing now? 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R?

[DHonks]

So Obermueller's showing the same stuff as last year, only he's throwing his heater for strikes better this outing and getting ahead (pounding the zone). Where are all the people bashing him saying he has no stuff?

[hardytheman]

I like Wes O but not as the 5th starter, I think he is better suited for a bullpen spot, he can PH then as well. Glover seems better suited for starting.

 

Lil Ben looked better after the first inning. Still needs work though.

[ja002h]

How's Obie doing now?

 

A billion times better than Ben, for starters. Lots of movement, harder, hitting spots.

[brewers19]

Who's the guy on second? He has no name on his uniform and his number is 95. The announcers said that it was Jenkins, but he just came home on Helms' double and it definitely didn't look like Jenks.

[ja002h]

Helms w an RBI 2b to the wall..

[ja002h]

The announcers said that it was Jenkins.

 

Yeah, they're idiots. It's Helms.

These WGN announcers are morons.

 

I'm gonna guess it was Steve Moss.

 

Helms hit the double.
