I was just saying this to my wife. I know the All-Star Game is just an exhibition and not all the players are really deserving, but I still love seeing Brewers in it. When I was a kid, we'd almost always just get one player in the All-Star Game and it would usually be some pitcher like Ricky Bones. The highlight of the game for me was usually just seeing the Brewer player in the pre-game introductions. I just loved seeing the uniform of my favorite team on national TV. I'd then stay up all night just waiting for the reserve player to maybe get one AB or pitch to one batter. Half the time, that never happened. It's really great seeing three starters and maybe another one or two players (about to find out). Makes me feel like a kid again. -
How would Chris Carpenter explain that to his kids?
-
Kirk Gibson was able to complete a home run trot in 1988, so I think Braun will be fine for his one or two AB's. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Mmm hmm.

http://mlb.mlb.com/news/a...802&vkey=allstar2011 The format to determine the individual champ is the same as it has been. The significance of having the two captains pick their teams (aside from the fun change) is that $150,000 will be donated to a charity chosen by the winning team's captain. Also, every home run in every round will count towards the team total.

He should pick Casey McGehee to help him regain his power stroke.

I sure hope so. Maybe that's why it's a "tough" decision for Roenicke. Because we all know he loves him so much.I know we always razz management for liking Kotsay, but let's not forget that these are human beings on both ends of every roster decision. It sounds like Kotsay is a really good guy and someone people enjoy having in the clubhouse, so even though he may not be deserving of a spot on the team because of his performance/abilities, it is still probably "tough" for Melvin and Roenicke to tell him that he's got to go. I've never had to do anything like that, but I would imagine it is not easy to fire/demote someone you genuinely like and respect. I'm not saying Kotsay shouldn't go, as I agree he's not good, but let's not always poo-poo the personal aspects of running a baseball team.

The Yankees shouldn't be allowed to start a steal attempt until the ball crosses home plate.
-
Just setting up the triple play...
-
We all know from 2008 that pitch count is meaningless when it comes to CC Sabathia.
-
You know, it hurts me enough to have to sort of root against Sabathia because he's on the Yankees, but it breaks my heart to REALLY have to root against him today.
-
Awesome. I'm so glad all three BOS/PHI games have been televised down here in Atlanta. I don't know what I would've done had I not been able to see them all.
-
If we can somehow win today and then win the Twins series, as this team should, I would be very content with a 3-3 road trip.
-
I just saw the replay and was coming to post this. Yeah, let's build a stadium with walls that extend virtually straight across from the corner.
-
I just saw the Gamel/Hart DP and I see what people were saying last night about Gamel's bat speed. Pretty impressive.
-
I hereby dub this game "Mulligan."
-
On the bright side, we saw how well we've done recently with 2-0 first inning leads...
-
That bottom of the first was pretty much the definition of "unlucky" for a pitcher.
-
Screw the whole "if the fielder doesn't touch it, it's not an error" thing. What a load of horse crap official scoring is.
-
Just stopped by to read the comments about Casey. Now back to bathing my offspring.
-
Ah, nards. MLB Network is showing either BOS/PHI or MIL/NYY down here in Atlanta. I figured it would be the former, and I was right.
-
Does this mean he'll be able to sleep in his own bed? Having the right pillow is very important for one's health.
-
No, "Most Valuable Player" is just a fancy way of saying "best player." The "Most Valuable Player" award just sounds better than "Best Player" or "Most Outstanding Player" award. It tilts me every time the argument about who is the "most valuable" comes up every year, as if the best player in the league that year isn't the most valuable, anyway. But we digress.

They were the double play combo when the O's had their epic losing streak to start the 1988 season.
