9/9/2007: Brewers (Sheets) at Reds (Dumatrait)

[brettac1]

What's going on here?

 

You know the deal... the ace goes out and throws up 7 or 8 zeros and the Brewers roll over the guy with the 13.00 ERA and a 12:9 BB:K ratio. Right? Let's hope so.

 

Someone else please insert fancy graphics and whatnot. I'm just amazed that there's no IGT yet.

Dumatrait has given up 26 ER and 34 hits in 18 IP. He boasts a 2.56 WHIP and a BAA of .415. He takes on our ace, Ben Sheets. Brewers, don't screw this up.

I'm very torn as to what to pay the most attention to. The Packers, or Brewers. Usually the Brewers are out of it that it's not hard to decide. GO BREWERS, and GO PACKERS!!!!!!!!!

[hawing]

Phil Dumatrait (he does have a first name) got rocked by the Nationals (3.1 IP, 8H, 6ER) on August 2.

 

His best MLB outing to date was vs. Los Angeles on August 9 (6.0 IP, 7H, 2ER).

 

That must have been his only day game, as his day ERA is 3.00, while at night he's rockin' 18.00.

 

Brewers, you know what to do here.

[brewcrewnation]

Is there even a question, Brewers. That other team is playing meaningless game. The Brewers need this game.

[crewcrazy]

How about the Brewers score 31, the Reds score 3, the Packers score 12 and the Eagles score 10? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Hall batting 8th. hmmmm

[JumpinMacFlash]

I like that lineup for today. And I really like Estrada at 7 instead of 8th.

[pebadger]

Split screen TV receiver is today's MVP.

 

Let's make this a big weekend for Wisconsin.

 

Brewers Saturday. Check. Huge Check.

Badgers Saturday. Check.

Brewers Sunday.

Packers Sunday.

Steve Stricker Sunday.

 

I'll settle for two of three today, so long as one is the Brewers. Hell, I'll settle for one of three today, if the one is the Brewers and we get a Cubs loss to boot. A Bears loss is a bonus.

 

If Sheeter keeps his walks lower than his uncharacteristic last time out, the Crew should be fine.

[marquettefan13]

Come on Brewers - really need a win today. I'll be flipping around a lot today as I really want to see the Packers game too.

Great start! back to back to back homers, and a base hit, no one out.

[brewers19]

Figures that Prince is the one who can't hit one out.
