get the stat guys working to see how many times that's happened before. While you guys are digging, let us know if you find one that includes a zero pitch win. I seem to recall someone coming in and picking off the runner to get out of the winning, and then going on to win. Sound familiar to anyone else? Apparently it happened 5 years ago. Here's a thread that links to the box: http://techreport.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43567 Also mentions a CS home in the 54 All-Star game that led to a zero pitch win. While I was at it, Vizcaino's 1st 2 wins in 2002 were both with 1 pitch; he got 2 outs with the first one. A couple years ago, the Brewers won when Stanton balked in the winning run before throwing a pitch but the guy who put the runner on 3d got the loss.

get the stat guys working to see how many times that's happened before. Vizcaino did it at least once in 2002 and I think twice, maybe even back to back. I know it shouldn't be that hard to remember every win that year.

Gagne type win for Valverde. Magic # 156.

Last 5 years 2-0, took the 1st 2 from the Cardinals in 2004.

Highlight of the SF is good -- as WGN is showing Gwynn being congratulated in the dugout one of the announcers says "keep an eye on Gwynn on first base."

Looks like Sheets never walks the Cubs. But how can Lee's OBP against him be lower than his BA?

I thought it wasn't a blown save until after the 5th inning. If the pitcher isn't in line for the win, what are you saving? Did they change the rule or is it just an error?

Gameday can be up to 1/2 inning behind, often doesn't give counts, etc. I think the PBP is helpful.

Out at the plate was really the 2d out (announcer had it wrong), then a grounder to short to strand 2 in scoring position, 7-3. Bottom 6, Chavez leadoff 2B and stayed there on a grounder to short, went to 3d on a chopper to 1st. RBI single by Kendall on the 1st pitch, 7-4.

If the Padres are out of it, T. Gwynn Jr. (OK I changed the hypo). And then the Cubs will have a conspiracy.

Time for Berkman to steal 3d.

ROY! ROY! Ooops I guess someone beat me to the obvious joke.

Linebrink trade is looking pretty good now.

Nice quote splitter. Did you post I picked the wrong day to stop smoking/taking amphetamines/sniffing glue a while back? That kid in the red shorts looks just like my son. Creepy.

Biggest hits of the year: 1. Hall HR against Detroit. 2. Hardy single today.

TMJ feed is back on for gameday audio.

National's audio is working; TMJ isn't.

Sounded like Powell called the 8th, did they say why?

Thanks much guys, appreciate the info.

Anybody know if the Brewers have had a 9 run inning before? I remember a few 8s (1 against Zambrano and 2 in the same game at Fenway) and a 13 but no 9.

Woodard's first start was a 1-0 win. An earned run got into his line above somehow.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have we had a 9th inning comeback yet in 2007? The suspended game against the Marlins early on.

Spent 4 hours watching the Brewers lose their 10th out of 14 and felt pretty good about it. Until the Cubs scored 7 but that worked out fine in the end. Down 7-0 to a Hall of Fame pitcher cruising through 5 and a team with a good bullpen in a pitcher's park and they made a game out of it. Weeks, Braun, Hardy, Fielder, Jenkins, Hall, Gwynn, pretty sweet lineup. Without Bell the Pads probably would have lost. Surprised not to see Hoffman in a save situation when he's rested but it was the right call. I didn't have the best angle on inside/outside but it looked like Maddux got some help. He gets close pitches called balls as much as Jordan got called for traveling. In the first inning Bush didn't get a call for strike 3 and Gonzales then singled in a run; in the next inning or two Bush had one and Maddux had two in the same spot or maybe even a bit away called strikes. Bard clearly went around before the slam. But I thought the one Jenkins and Yost got tossed on was a strike all the way. And Rickie had a good day but he should have been hacking on the first pitch with Gross on 3d and one out. Great to see Braun's RBI and double, Fielder's bomb, JJ matching him, Gwynn working a walk when they needed baserunners, Wise looking good. Still just a handful of Brewer fans. Nothing like the Cardinals or Cubs. One had Hardy's homerun ball - an older couple fished it out of the basket and he asked what they wanted for it since his daughter is a big Hardy fan and they gave it to him. Nice folks. Also a group from West Bend & Milwaukee with a "What can Braun do for you" and "Braun is the new Black" poster. Too bad I have to see Vargas tomorrow. Brewers are 0-7 in Petco when I'm there and 3-0 when I'm not. Sundevil it looks like you'll be in 108, right? I'll be in 115.

Braun debut T. Gwinn Jr. back in San Diego In 1st by 6 Good night to be in Petco. Looks like there will be noticeably more Brewer fans tonight than there have been the last 10 years. I'll be in 107 tonight if anyone can come by. I have a 70s jersey and my daughter has a Weeks jersey. Wife and son are Pads fans.
