7/7/2004 - Brewers (Davis) vs. Cubs (Zambrano)

[7rebmun]

Is Ned really going to let him hit? I don't see it happening. But Doug looked like he really wanted to go back out.

[7rebmun]

Davis going back out, Grieve still playing right. Is Yost still managing this squad tonight http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

[endaround]

Ok, did Yost fall asleep? Davis is sent back out and Grieve is still in the field?

[7rebmun]

Yup. But for some reason I'm liking it http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[AJAY]

One more inning to go. How about some insurance runs here.

[RoseBowlMtg]

8 shut out innings. Come on how about a complete game shutout and I don't even have DD in fantasy.

 

Go Brewers!

[7rebmun]

You'll probably see Clark PH now . . .

 

Brady Clark, least favorite Brewer.

[OhioBrew]

I'm REALLY impressed with Doug Davis tonight.

 

And Ben Sheets doesn't lead the NL in ERA. Al Leiter does at 2.05.

[Harold Hutchison]

Yeah, it would be nice to have them.

 

Get two runs, and then send Kinney or some other middle-relief guy to finish this one off. That liner by Sosa should be a sign that Doug's probably thrown enough pitches today.

 

8 IP, ERA down to 3.46 - he's done his bit for the team tonight.

[gregmag]

Has anybody explained why Davis went out for the 7th having thrown 111 pitches already? Does it strike anybody else as odd to run the starter's pitch count to 124 in the 8th inning of a 4-0 game? Did we trade managers or something?

 

Greg.

[gregmag]

I meant "out for the 8th," and EZ Board has revoked my editing privileges. Sorry.

Davis didn't seem to be struggling at all out there. The Brewers had a four-run lead.

 

In any case, it seems to have worked out. No complaints from me. And the bullpen will be well-rested for the next series. Just throw Burba or Kinney out there for the ninth if the Crew can get a couple of insurance runs.

[endaround]

Yeah the bull pen will be nice and rusty for the next series.

[Brewer Fever]

I know this is absolutely unrelated....

 

But since you can never have enough pitching, how's about we go get this guy:

The added perk being we might start seeing this cheering him on in the stands!

Anyone want to kill old Ronny Woo Woo?

[H0FFY]

my cbs sportsline has

 

clark ph and struck out

then sosa ph for podsednick

then clark ph for sosa and walked

and then pods lineout

cousell foul out

and jenkins single (that is the sure sign something wrong)

[7rebmun]

There shouldn't even be consequences for killing people as annoying as this guy. Never even heard of him . . .

[AJAY]

That Woo Woo guys needs psychiatric medication fast.

[Vgmastr]

As a Brewers fan, there's no sweeter feeling the world than sweeping the Cubs. Awesome series.

[RoseBowlMtg]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

[H0FFY]

My sportsline has Sammy Sosa pitching to Davey Lopes with Dave Stewart on first. That cant be right.

 

rolllllll out the barrrrrrrellllll....

[Harold Hutchison]

Cubs SWEPT!!!

 

Three straight. This Brewers team has bounced BACK!

[bjkrautk]

WOO sweep!

 

WOO sweep!

 

WOO sweep!

 

....

 

I could keep going, but that would be annoying.

[gregmag]

The Cubs' vaunted lineup scored two runs in three games while we got what we needed against on three of the best-regarded pitchers in all of baseball. How could it get better than this?

 

What an amazing series. Mike Maddux is the new Dave Duncan.

 

Greg.
