6/12/2004 - Brewers (Capuano) vs. Houston (Oswalt)

[MassBrew]

Gee, maybe I could use one of the seven "who's pitching tonight?" threads to kick things off...

 

Nah...

 

Enjoy -- the Brewers win this one, it sets up a potentially huge homestand with Ben working Sunday and the road-pathetic Mariners coming in.

Nice to see Brewer killers Hidalgo and Berkman on the bench.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

Wow with both guys on the bench it makes there lineup a little less scary. But don't let our guard down... Lets hope for a win and go brewers...

[MassBrew]

Ausmus always kills us, too. Not tonight.

[tyguy20204]

They must be planning on Oswalt dominating us.

 

Not out of the question.

[PeaveyFury]

Wow... the Astros sure are doing their best to allow us to sweep. Hopefully the loss of half their lineup will counter Oswalt's throwing and we can win this one when it gets to the bullpens....

[Sheets4theHOF]

Cap struggled alittle in the beginning but hopefully he settles in. Jenkins, even when he's not hitting the ball he always excellent defense with a very good arm.

[Vgmastr]

Shaky start by Cap, 5 straight balls. However, a nice pitch to Bagwell pops him up, and a beautiful play by Jenks ends the inning. Hopefully the offense has come to score some runs.

[TwinklesTheCrewFan]

Two in scoring position and only one out.

 

How 'bout a couple of RBIs for Overbaaaaaaay.

 

2 LOB Uggggh

 

twinkles-

[PeaveyFury]

Berkman isn't even with the team, he's left because of a death in the family. So no Berkman to PH or play tomorrow, FYI.

[Sheets4theHOF]

Its looking omnious with that curve ball he has working. Good AB's by pods and jenks but overbay and Ginter have to atleast make contact in those those situations.

[TwinklesTheCrewFan]

Out of two innings and under 20 pitches, looks to be settling in - so far

[Sheets4theHOF]

With both pitchers about once through the lineup this look like it could be a 1-0 affair.

[1992casey]

29 pitches through 3 innings.

[TwinklesTheCrewFan]

I don't think my heart can take another one of those games: win or lose

[pabrewerfan]

These walks are going to bite Cap in the rearside. Lets hope he gets out of the 4th unscored upon.

[Sheets4theHOF]

Comon ginter. Even Helms makes that play.

[Sheets4theHOF]

There you go Cappy, one more now.

 

EDIT: Nevermind, man I hate errors.

[Vgmastr]

This game's over.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I never say a game is over but that is a lot to overcome when oswalt seems to be on his game lol... So i am going to watch but we need a couple of runs right now1

[MassBrew]

Well, that sucked.

[Vgmastr]

Hey, they scored a run against Oswalt! I must have gotten the wrong forecast, I heard it was bright and sunny in hell.

[Sheets4theHOF]

Man Moeller can't hit, how in the world did he have a four hit game?

[PeaveyFury]

brewerinsider.com with the plug on TV.... where's our PR staff to offer Daron and Bill webspace at brewerfan.net?

And I'd like to point out that Brewerinsider.com still hasn't put a brewerfan.net link up on their site...

[Sheets4theHOF]

Glad that wasn't durrington's AB. Comon let's come back here.
