    Not only that, but Sunday games are the only games that Milwaukee-area residents can watch if they're not subscribed to TimeWarner's $43/mo "bend over" package. For the casual fan -- or former fan -- who's stumbled across these games on Telemundo, I bet they're real anxious to start supporting this team.... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

    Update: I tweaked my foot but good rounding first base today early in practice. Only hurt a little until I got off my feet this afternoon. Now I can't put any weight on it. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif I'll be at McCarty tomorrow at 1:00 no matter what, but I might be to useless to do anything but pitch or take some throws at first.

    bball123h and colbyjack, I got some practice balls from jamie today. Are we still on for 1:00 tomorrow at McCarty? Brewer Fever said he'd also be there, so we're up to four guys. Anyone else???
  4. valpocrewsader
    Apparently the BF.net softball team needs to hold practices during Brewer games more often. Look at last saturday's game and look at today's game! Or maybe there's just something about Saturdays....
  5. valpocrewsader
    I know exactly where McCarty is. I would be free at 1:00, too. Sounds great to me.* About me not having any bats, I should clarify, I do have some bats that could be used just for hitting flyballs and grounders, but they would not be good bats for BP 'cos they're nothing you'd use in an actual game. * Note, after the last practice, I was too sore on Sunday to even think about practicing again. I'm just blindly assuming that this will not be the case again this weekend. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    I have a bad feeling about the rest of the series because right now I feel like all this team is capable of is scoring 10 runs when they need 12 and scoring one run when they need three. So yeah, I have a bad feeling. Prove me wrong, boys....
  7. valpocrewsader
    Losing 9 of our last 12? ouch. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif No runs after the first *pitch* tonight? ouch. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

    Who was talking about the Brewers defense looking like a high school team last night? I didn't see the play (radio), but it didn't sound like anything you ever see in the majors. An infield hit that scores a runner from second without an error???
  9. valpocrewsader
    Yep ... in the second inning. 5 RBIs for Pujols already. Jerome Williams chased from the game after 1 1/3. I live in Milwaukee and can watch Cubs games, but not Brewers games. Awesome.
  10. valpocrewsader
    Is someone bringing a radio? I believe the person who brought it to the last parctice (iron chef?) was going to be absent this time. With a little notice, I could provide a boombox (need to pick up batteries). I could definitely be persuaded if it wasn't too far from my house (hwy 100 & Greenfield). Jamie's the only one with the official softballs, though, and I don't really have any bats.
  11. valpocrewsader
    Two lefty starters coming up for the Reds on Saturday and Sunday ... I think Hall will get plenty of ABs this series. Being just the 17th game of the season, I'm okay with sticking to the original plan regarding the Koskie/Hall situation. And too early to experiement with Hall in center, I think.
  12. valpocrewsader
    Same park as last time, but we're shooting for the softball diamond. If you know how long it takes you to get to the Hale interchange (where 43/894 and 45/894 come together), it's less than 5 minutes off the freeway from there. Yahoo maps can probably give you a pretty accurate time, for a destination you should be able to use "Parnell Ave at New Berlin Rd" in Hales Corners.
  13. valpocrewsader
    This is exactly what I was thinking. Be good to simulate some real game situations. I would also be in favor seeing a good amount of baserunning. Maybe have guys take BP like last time but then run on their 10th hit or something. By the end of the practice, it'd be good to have some ideas about who's suited for what position, who can make the throw from third to get a fast runner, who can turn DPs, who's got a good enough cannon and depth perception for the outfield, who has the bat and speed to hit leadoff, who's got the bat to hit in the power positions, etc. With nothing nailed down as concrete yet, of course... I'm crossing my fingers that we'll be able to get on the softball diamond this time. Using that field instead of trying to shorten the hardball diamond should get the picture in focus a little better.

    Hmm, either you misread his comment or I did. Isn't he being sincere when he said Prince was improving and needed to be moved back up to 5th? (His comment was before Prince struckout, so I don't think it was sarcasm.) And since our 4-8 hitters went 10 for 23 tonight, I assumed he wasn't mocking at all with the clutch comment either. But maybe I'm seeing something out of context. If so, sorry....
  15. valpocrewsader
    I sure hope so! Against the Reds... AB R H 2B+3B HR RBI BB AVG OBP SLG OPS 2005 53 9 17 7 2 7 8 .321 .410 .604 1.014 2004 54 9 17 4 3 13 6 .315 .393 .556 .949 Pretty darn consistent between the two years. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Hopefully he has the Reds number again this year. It will be tough to see him sit the bench at all this series....
  16. valpocrewsader
    I love station-to-station baseball. Love it! This was exactly what the team needed heading back home. Hopefully they're not too tired tomorrow. Gotta get on a plane and unwind after a huge win, somehow get to sleep tonight around 2:00 am our time? And then wake up tomorrow to face the Reds. Hope they're not too drained....
  17. valpocrewsader
    In honor of the Brewers tonight -- and in honor of getting all my laundry done tonight in addition to a boatload of other household chores -- I'm gonna settle in here with a couple hot dogs, a beer, and listen to some post-game chat on WSSP. Woohoo.
  18. valpocrewsader
    You know, after his strikeouts I've been listening to the crowd. I'm not hearing any boos. Really surprises me. Are they that "good" of fans (supportive and won't boo) or that "bad" of fans (oblivious to his 9 strikeouts in two days)?
  19. valpocrewsader
    What a great performance by the Brewers tonight. Great pitching (so far) and extremely good RISP hitting. Awesome to see and very encouraging. The second game of the Mets series was their first solid win of the season, and this (hopefully) will be their second. Two solid wins in five games ... on the road to elite teams ... very positive to see.
  20. valpocrewsader
    Did Fielder just take the ball out of Turnbow's hand? Or do you still send T-bow out there in a non-save situation (been a while since he pitched)?
  21. valpocrewsader
    LOL, okay, apparently Preston is just gonna strike out against everyone this series. But I'm telling you, he's way overdue! Watch out for him in the next series against Pitt. And god forbid this game goes to extra innings....
  22. valpocrewsader
    Do you like this move? I like getting Cappy out of there with just 2 ER after how solid he was tonight, but he has handled Preston perfectly tonight. And we know Preston is due to hit a blast. And some days, Cappellan has nothing but a straight fastball that guys like Preston just tee off on. *worried*
  23. valpocrewsader
    That's what I was thinking. That maybe Cirillo figured another hit to continue the rally would cause Lane to loaf to the ball dejectedly. Cirillo was probably really pumped up about the hit and thought he was gonna catch them crying. Darn.
  24. valpocrewsader
    Uke just confirmed it.
  25. valpocrewsader
    All right, those of you watching TV, please give me some possible explanations for Cirillo trying to stretch that to a double. Uke made it sound like a routine base hit with Cirillo out by a mile.
