6/24/2004 - Rockies (Cook) @ Brewers (Sheets)

[ja002h]

Bomb by Sweeney.

K kount: 5

Mark Sweeny Homers. 2-0 Rocks.

Realistically, Counsell is a better fit for Boston since Reese backs up SS and Bellhorn is hitting at 2B.

 

If the Red Sox wanted to trade Youkilis, I'd certainly be interested. Even if it's only to pack him off to Oakland in a later deal.

Whole lotta nothing (Grieve bloop) for the Brewer 4th.

[ja002h]

Sheets 5th:

1-2-3

K kount: 7

Shhhh.... Brewer bats are sleeping......

[madtownbrew]

Why can we not score any runs for Sheets when he is on the mound?? In fact, why can't we score any runs period? this is getting ridiculous! Let's get some RUNS!!!

[rluzinski]

Sheesh. Sheets is batting 0.000 and bunts into a double play.

 

No excuse for a pitcher not being able to sacrifice a runner over.

[ja002h]

Sheets 6th:

2 out walk LOB

K kount: 8

[ja002h]

C'mon offense, put an end to this traveshamockery

 

That doesn't mean GIDP, Lyle

[brewcrewkid14]

How many dp is that now.....3 DP's so far after about 6 innings.

[ja002h]

I picked you today Ben. Be good to me

 

... drat.

[SJgunny]

The one thing that worries me is this team sometimes just cant hit. They make these average pitchers look like allstars. Bring up Hart he cant be any worse of hitters that we have in right field know. Go crew

[brewerjamie15]

21,224 attendance for get away vs. Rockies. Pretty good figure.

 

Sure hope we don't lose this series it would sorta let some air outta this thing and make for a so-so- home stand at 7-5

[LV Brewer Fan]

Is it unrealistic to think that if Sheets would have received even adequate run support through this point in the season, that his name would be being mentioned in early CY Young candidate discussions?

[JaNelson52]

The Brewers have allowed Aaron Cook, a guy who has control problems, to throw 6 innings in 76 pitches. That in and of itself is unacceptable.

 

The team may be a bit unlucky today with hard-hit balls right at people, but throughout this series the Brewers have done most of their offensive damage against the Rockies bullpen. To not be working the count against a guy like this screams poor planning on the part of the Brewers.

[ja002h]

Sheets 7th:

2 out double LOB

K kount: 10

 

Sheets is the MAN.

[JaNelson52]

Sheets final line today:

 

7 IP, 4 H, 2 R (0 ER), 1 BB, 10 K

 

And right now, he is on the hook for the loss.

 

Unbelievable.

[emunney]

Sheets merits mention in early Cy Young discussions with or without adequate run support.

[brewcrewkid14]

I thought that Sheets was suppose to be a good #3 starter?

[brewcrewkid14]

Are they pinch hitting for them?

[JaNelson52]

Sheets is due up third in this inning, and he has thrown 110 pitches.

[brewcrewkid14]

OK that makes sense thanks JaNelson.

[brettac1]

Here we go, Ben, get the bunt down!

 

EDIT: That sucks

[ja002h]

Sheets merits mention in early Cy Young discussions with or without adequate run support.

 

What he said.
