  1. Soriano redeems himself and commits a run-allowing error (well, possibly - runner may have scored, anyway)! 2-1, Gigantes.
  2. Phew...things were dicey for the Giants. Bottom 7, two on, one out, but reliever gets Hill to GIDP.
  3. It was just reported on the ESPN broadcast. Ja-son Ken-dall (clap clap clapclapclap). Ja-son Ken-dall (clap clap clapclapclap).
  4. Braun makes me proud to be Jewish. Would it be wrong to give him the nickname "Hebrew Hammer"?
  5. Very nice. Hopefully he'll just be at bat with the bases empty. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  6. I mentioned this in a post a couple days ago, but for whatever reason (maybe just looking at the world through blue and gold glasses), it seems to me that the Cubs get to play every team when that team is at its worst. To start their hot streak, they got the ChiSox at their absolute nadir. They were already the worst hitting team in the league and topped themselves by scoring 2 runs in 3 games. Then Colorado decided to cool off after playing well, mainly by pitching like little leaguers and booting every ball in the field. The lowlight was Kaz's (I believe it was him) bobble of the easy final out in the game where Colorado came back in the 9th. Next was Washington, playing like Washington, when they, of course, decide to play well against us. Pittsburgh actually stepped it up. And then there's Houston. Couldn't hit until the 9th inning of game 2 (4 hits to that point, maybe?) and on top of it, Roy Oswalt gets shelled. Oh, and in a one game win yesterday, musclemen Theriot and Pagan hit homers. And now Bonds isn't playing. Obviously, things have gone the Brewers' way this year, too, namely the hot start by many players and the lack of injuries until recently. But man, it seems like the Cubs are living a charmed life right now, and not because they are amazing. [/silly whine] http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  7. Astros hitter just swung and missed at ball four. Too bad.
  8. What, are they trying to get back at Wisconsin for the Brett Favre trade?
  9. Um....no.
  10. Wow. Great win. Everything has been going wrong for the Brewers the last couple weeks, and everything has been going right for the Cubs (am I the only one who thinks that every team plays their absolute worst against the Cubs?). This was shaping up to be a bad loss, but turned into a great win. Well, except for Sheets' injury. Let's keep our strained fingers crossed.
  11. I believe that was his dad. Tony, Jr. has struck out a lot this year. 19 in 91 AB's. As I wrote this, I see on Gametracker that he was able to move Jenkins over. Good job. EDIT: And as I hit submit, we won!
  12. The only two things I can think are a) position problems (even though LaRussa said he can play multiple positions), and b) manpower issues if the game goes extras. But that said, I do think Pujols should have hit for either Hudson or Rowand. This is the first All-Star game that I was really interested in since I was a kid, since the Brewers had a bunch of guys in it and there is a chance that it would mean something for us later this season. Good game.
  13. I really, really hope that this game doesn't start another slide for the Brewers. I know it's only one game, but this was the worst case scenario. Instead of continuing our momentum and halting theirs, we injected even more life into the Cubs, in addition to losing a game in the standings. Maybe the Brewers will rebound tomorrow, since I'll be in town. You know, positive dlk9s mojo.
  14. Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.
  15. That was so far from a strike, it was laughable. Any closer to the ground and a worm would've died.
  16. Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines.
  17. Yeah, I'm really nervous about the Turnbow 8th. He just needs to get ahead in the count. When he falls behind, he either walks guys or serves up fastballs down the middle. When he's ahead, he can break out the slider and keep batters guessing. By the way, Wise needs to be allowed to pitch to more than one or two batters on a more consistent basis.
  18. This game is a perfect example of why walks can kill. The Brewers were the beneficiaries of free passes in the 1st, and all of the Cubs' runs have come after leadoff walks. I really should've made my first post a more positive one, so here you go: We're still winning!
