  1. I thought it was JJ that caused the problem, looked he was well on his way to 2nd base for some reason. Surely Prince did not miss a double steal sign???
  2. Did the Brewers ever take 3 consecutive walks all last season?
  3. Yeah, 4-2...the ump gave one to the cubs and our own coach cost us one.
  4. and that you will actually slide, not stick...
  5. Gotta love the "hussle" attitude of the Cub corner outfielders.
  6. Yeah, that was awful coaching at third...can we put Sveum back over there?
  7. Their phone lines were busy, so I was about to email a complaint, when the game came back without it http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  8. Anyone called to complain to the idiots at WMLW about the CC in the middle of the picture?
  9. I thought the "that" was refering to the 1 in 20 not the .060
  10. Considering opposing batters have an OBP of .060 after falling 0-2 to Marmol, Harts chances were probably worse than that. Well .060 would be about 1 in 17, so 1 in 20 would be a bit worse than average.
  11. Ridiculous, we have to save the other options for later...coool he got hit
  12. Well that is the rule (as written, not as enforced), you are supposed to be required to attempted to get out of the way, if it is possible to do so, and if it is a strike, it is a strike and you do not get 1st. I don't think I have never seen an umpire actually not give a base because the batter did not try to get out of the way. I seem to recall a strike being called once last season when batter was hit by a pitcher on the brewers??? If I am recalling that correctly, I am pretty sure that was the first time I had ever seen that call made. Usually you only would see a strike called on a HBP when the batter swings.
  13. As far as I am concerned the rule should be you do not get a base if the ball clearly hits nothing but your loose clothing.
  14. Just about anything can happen in a single game. The Netherland all-stars beating the Domincan all-stars in the WBC comes to mind, for instance.
  15. If they charged $3, would you still do it? Just curious, as to what the price would need to be for you decide it was not worth sneaking beers in. BTW, it would only have been $39 for 6 16 oz bottles in the park last year and $40.50 this year, $42 is an exxageration http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  16. I ended up getting 5th row in left. Bought them for $20 each (and no service fees) by mail from a guy on craigslist MN. He had some in that area and also some higher priced ones in the infield area. If anyone is interested I can give his contact info via PM.
  17. Those seats look pretty good. In terms of the height would you say they were comparable to club level at MP or more like terrace? I like how the seats in center are aimed at third base http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/ohwell.gif
  18. Looks like I'm going for left field, too...at least for Saturday night. Sunday we are going to stay flexible, if there is nothing else we want to do there that night, we'll just buy some general admission tickets the day of the game if nothing better is available. Am I correct in assuming that the general admission seats typically do not sell out? But those outfied seats are seats, not actually "bleachers" (meaning benches), right?
  19. No real budget, I'm usually willing to pay up to $30-40 for good seats at MP, loge diamond box or club level at Miller. If I buy from the team, I am apparently either getting about row 18 in the top deck behind the plate or a similar row in the left field "home run porch" area. So, unless I find another source with reasonable prices and better seats, it looks like I'll be choosing between those two options and just taking the general admission, sit above the baggie, route. Anything higher priced reverts to the neck pain zone far down the left field line. BTW, no need for transit or parking tips as we are staying in a hotel a few blocks away. But we will be looking for other things to do in downtown Minneapolis as we plan make a weekend trip of it and stay for 2 nights.
  20. Thanks for the tips so far. Had not thought about the seats not being angled toward the action. I noticed that the website keeps wanting me to buy tickets way down the left field line, I'll avoid taking that default option. Looking at this: http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/min/ballpark/seating_pricing.jsp it appears that the RF corner is angled to at least aim toward second base, is that correct? But not even being able to see the right fielder does not sound too good. I need to empty my bladder frequently, so the aisle seat idea is a good one.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  21. Looking for any suggestions on where to sit in the Metrodome. Planning a trip there for one of the games Memorial Day weekend. In case it might help, likes and dislikes at Miller Park: Favorite locations are loge or club level in the home plate area (ie. behind the plate, but not behind the screen). Next would be loge level on the first base side. Not a big fan of the field level at Miller, as the low pitch puts too many heads in the way, unless you are in a very low row (is that an issue at all at the metrodome?). Also any suggestions on where to buy the tickets would be appreciated. I've been buying Brewer tickets from craigslist ads lately, but not sure if that will work for an out of town game.
  22. All the owners are wealthy and likely have lost a lot in the stock market. In addition, most of them are probably concerned about the possibility of lower revenue due to lower attendance and less demand for sky boxes, over-priced concessions, etc. (one wonders how teams in NY, the financial capital of the US, are doing with leasing of all the new sky boxes, that I assume are part of the two new ballparks)
