Also, there's an extremely dedicated heckler somewhere near home plate. You can hear him clearly on every single pitch. It is the dude behind home who looks like Kenny Powers plus 150 lbs
This could mean any number of things: 1. We're going for it!! Livan is being brought in because we've seen what he can do in the post season and what Marcum and Grienke do in the post season. 2. We received a great offer for Grienke (unlikely) 3. Marcum is going to spend a long time on the DL 4. The Reds were looking at him and we saw what we did against him last year (11 hits in 13+ innings) 5. With Elton John's Billy Elliot opening in Milwaukee, they thought it'd be good to make "Levon" someone's entrance music
MacDonald is going to be able to go the full nine. I have a bad feeling about this game. Hopefully Fiers can get through the 5th and 6th with the lead in tact.
I'd rather keep Conrad than Dillard. The guy is just so bad. I can't believe there aren't better pitchers out there on the scrap heap or in our system. Seriously, Chris Spaulding was better than this garbage
I kind of worried after he got the short end of the call against Kubel which was followed up by him getting a hit that ZG might end up having one of those innings like he would have last year when everybody was wondering about his mental makeup. He got three Ks, all swinging, on a total of 10 pitches. Only 1 of those 9 strikes was fouled off.
