    going back, why didn't Braun go after the Soriano ball? Did he think it was out? and Hart, why didn't he go after the Lee base hit? Is he afraid of giving up another inside-the-park homer or something? I swear he's been doing that all month--pulling up on balls that a little hustle and guts could be outs.
  2. pitchleague
    well, Cubs win the first inning. Luckily, there are 8 more battles to be won.
  3. pitchleague
    as my signature clearly shows, I can manage in the big leagues. Six championships in twenty years says something.

    I'm very happy to see the Cub fans on our board playing nice. A rivalry should be fun and good, wholesome ribbing is fine. I hope they enjoy the game as much as we do. I hope everyone remains civil in the IGT. Most of all, I hope the Brewers win.

    thank you for confirming what I was seeing. I know that others disagreed with me, while I could see it coming. Since he isn't used to the relief role again, I'd say it was the weird situation. Who knows, though? And for those of you lurking or whatever, please see this as proof that you CAN disagree with the mods here without getting banned. I always read how "you can't disagree with a mod at that site or they'll ban you" on brewers.com and other boards. Ridiculous.

    yeah, I'll be in my living room for 3 games. Laz-e-boy row 1, seat 1 Game four will be out on my patio, misters blowing cool sweet mist on my brow, grill cooking up some scrumptious vittles, and a cooler of Miller Lite at my side.

    boy, we sure overlooked the Astros this weekend . . . . 1-2 start to the homestand is not what I had in mind for a team that has been doing so well lately. Hitting with RISP has been abysmal and the poor pitching gremlin came out of it's mid-season hibernation to wreck havoc with today's game.
  8. pitchleague
    the Cards lost, too, so they stay 3 behind us, worst case.
  9. pitchleague
    worst case scenario today is we lose, Cubs win and we go into that series a game back. Pretty much what we expected (or worse) a week ago. Not the end of the world. I'd still like the comeback victory, though. In regards to McClung's 7th inning, yeah he got out of it with no runs. But every ball that was hit except for the 3rd out grounder to Weeks was hit hard. Results were better than Suppan but he was hit hard. . . . .and still is as Pence doubles to start the inning. Frozen Rope.
  10. pitchleague
    high inside heat on Blum. Accidental or intentional? hard to tell with McClung. And then Blum nearly hits his 3rd of the game.
  11. pitchleague
    short of the DP ball, McClung didn't really fare much better. Although he hasn't given up a run--yet.
  12. pitchleague
    nice of Weeks and Braun to show a little patience and get Sampson to work a bit harder. Both swing at the first pitch for outs.
  13. pitchleague
    I would bet my year's salary that if someone really did this in a MLB game (playoffs or not) that he would get drilled with the very next pitch, or at least thrown at high and hard.
  14. pitchleague
    why was JJ out of the lineup yesterday? I never heard any reasoning? Was it just to give him a day off/give Counsell a day on?
  15. pitchleague
    I actually can't wait for this upcoming series. I can't be there so the Cubs fans are not an issue for me, but a true rivalry is going to have each other's fans "invading" each other's ballpark to support the team. It's good for baseball to have more than a handful of rivalries. As a visiting fan, it's the risk you take being there that makes it "fun." A great time when you win; a horrible time when you lose; an adrenaline rush either way. Unfortunately, you have fans (on both sides--please note that Brewer fans act this way, too) that take things too far and make things not much fun for anyone. Light-hearted razzing is one thing. Making things extremely personal, vulgar, and profane is another. An entire stadium packed for four days with chants going back and forth and cheering/booing the action on the field? Yes, bring it on! I still really wonder what it would be like if the same two teams meet in the NLCS. I think the world would explode (well, my world at least).
  16. pitchleague
    wow. Mota. that is all that needs to be said.
  17. pitchleague
    yeah, ESPN's insider has the Brewers interested in Rhodes. Apparently, they had scouts watching him earlier this week.
  18. pitchleague
    Here's the link Not sure that I understand this one. Is it signifying that the Cards are giving up? Are they just getting rid of an arm that isn't doing much and gambling on a prospect from Cleveland's system? Trying to open up a roster spot for Chris Carpenter?
  19. pitchleague
    needless to say, the Marlins are pretty good. I mean, they've handled the Cubs pretty well and, well, we haven't done very well at all against them this year (0-6, ugh).
  20. pitchleague
    YES!!!!! Jorge Cantu!!! WOW!!!! I loved Len Casper's announcing on the double. "And . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . the marlins have the lead . . . . . . " with a lot of intonation of someone talking at a funeral. Wonderful!!!! Kevin Gregg, I'd imagine?
  21. pitchleague
    darn it, at LEAST 2nd & 3rd with 1 out if Andino doesn't hesitate. GRRRRRR!
  22. pitchleague
    jeepers, FLA with 19 strikeouts today thus far. Ugh-ly!
  23. pitchleague
    Andino hesitates and it costs the Marlins a baserunner. Argh!
  24. pitchleague
    bad feeling here, anyone? A-Ram needs to make an out. Please.
  25. pitchleague
    nuts, a nice catch by Johnson, a base hit, and a deep drive with the wind blowing in (woulda been a HR on a normal day in Wrigley), but nothing to show for it. Get the Cubs 1-2-3 in the bottom of, boys! At least Marmol will be out if they go 11.
