IGT 8/20/07 Brewers (Gallardo) at Diamondbacks (Davis) 8:40 PM CDT

I do like that silver anniversary logo. Im just sick of the whole 82' team stuff and I have this notion in my head that the retro unis are cursed. We have to have a losing record wearing them. Does anyone have that stat? I would also include when we wore the retros against St. Louis.

TLB, it wasn't until the Yuku migration (which enlarged the avatars) that I could even tell yours had Corey Koskie in it. http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif

 

It's kind of cool to see Doug Davis's dad start the in-game threads at dppb.org for his son's last 5, and now 6 starts.

 

Yeah, except I believe that's been good luck for the D-backs. Either Sharpie has won each of those starts, or at least Arizona has won the games. I hadn't been looking and saw that he's now 10-10.

 

Indeed, didn't Arizona start its white hot stretch just after getting pasted on that Thursday game in Miller Park in July? May the stretch come full circle (i.e. end) for them with this series, preferably tonight.

I'm going with a new avatar as well.

That's been my solace for the last two days. We were the last team to beat the D'backs, let's do it again.

 

I like our chances tonight, let's pick one up on those north siders.

 

HECK YES, BILL HALL, 2-0!

[Vgmastr]

3 runs on 1 hit, that's the Davis I remember.

[DougJones43]

3-0. This seems like a safe lead if I've ever seen one. Game over.

BILLY BALL HALL!!!!!!!

 

Now, I wonder if we will score any more runs tonight.

BILLY GOES YARD 3-O NICE START

[yogallardo43]

Who is this starter for the other team? The home fans must get really frustrarted with the walks and such.

[pebadger]

3-0 lead, Mench triples. The D-Backs have us right where they want us.

[lbb020]

seriously....can we please just put together a game like we did against the cubs @ wrigley on fox back in june? desperately need a laugher.

[brewcrewnation]

triple for mench thanks you doug davis

[TeeJayh1980]

Wish we could see that kind of hustle from more of our players...way to go Mench

[PeaveyFury]

Wooohoo! Another 3-0 lead for our staff to blow!

[brewcrewnation]

nice inning there doug a 32 pitch first inning.

[phatmatt1215]

mench just missed a triple, thanks you doug davis

I think you mean he missed an inside the park HR.

Too bad these aren't the April Brewers, I could chalk this one up and head to bed soon so I'm not dead tired at work tomorrow. However, these are the August Brewers, and just about anything can turn into an interesting game.

[DougJones43]

Oooh. The meltdown is already starting! I'm going to go grab some popcorn...

[endaround]

Yea Braun! And Estrada Yea!

[rluzinski]

This is a test and I shall pass!

 

I think Melvin is going to need to adjust the amount of emphasis he's placed on defense.

[Nearsighted Views]

3-0. This seems like a safe lead if I've ever seen one. Game over.

[NeedMoreFans]

Why do they do this to us? Why? All the promise of a blow out, and the final score will probably be 9-3, not the Brewers.

[endaround]

Bill thinks the Byrnes' contract is a great decision!

Good looking graph Russ. It looks like tonight will be a gradually sloping blown win probability rather than one that suddenly spikes in the 9th. That means we get 3 full hours of agony instead of just 10 minutes!
