Dear Brandon Beachy Way to get your pitch count up Due to strikeouts, sigh.

Nyjer, that was not Plushdamentals, epic fail Pitch out of it, sir.

Fifteen pitch inning Better than against Hudson? Get a hit now, please.

Hawing, to be fair the Braves are starting 6 of their 8 guys from Game 1, so at least Cory got 7 of theirs right. lol

Weeks 4 Hart 9 Braun 7 Fielder 3 McGehee 5 Betancourt 6 Gomez 8 Nieves 2 Greinke 1 What a fall off a cliff after McGehee. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

For everyone who says the Grienke start is like Christmas I say Feliz Nieves! I really hope we can get this game, Hudson is pretty tough, though. Hopefully ZG can put together some quality innings and string it along to the back end of the bullpen.

That 0-2 pitch was close, but when you walk the previous two batters you don't get that call. Unfortunate.

1-0 @ Hou 2-2 @ Atl 1-2 @ Stl 2-1 vs Sd 3-0 vs Pit 1-1 @ Lad 1-1 @ Sd 2-1 vs Col 2-1 vs Wsh 1-2 vs Sf 1-1 @ Cin 17-12. TB: ZG finishes the month 2-1 with a 3.75 ERA.

I like YuniB because he kind of looks like a 14 year old Tony Gwynn in his scoreboard picture. He is what he is.

AT&T's coverage at Miller Park is terrible. I previously had a BlackBerry and could never do anything other than make/receive calls, same with my iPhone. I wish there was something that could be done to improve connectivity because it's kind of annoying to have a phone that is a brick. The friend I go to 20-pack games with is on US Cellular and he has no problems. I also have a friend with an iPhone on Verizon who reported no problems, so it's basically AT&T.

Frustrating loss. I was at the game and wasn't really going to say anything about it, but the response RRR gave to why Stetter pitched to Votto instead of walking him annoyed me. Why was it too early, Ron? Because the manager's book says so? I realize this argument falls on deaf ears when it comes to baseball people, but if the game is on the line use your best reliever. Worry about the next inning when it gets there. Basically what he's saying is he doesn't have confidence in Sean Green to throw quality strikes. If that's the case, why is Green pitching in the highest leverage situation of the ballgame? Because the manager's book says so. Dusty brought in his best reliever in the highest leverage situation his team faced and we saw how that worked out. Dusty also yanked his starter for a LOOGY in a tight spot, costing his guy a chance to win but keeping the game where it was. Granted, this is Dusty and he does some crazy things, but it worked out for him this time. On the flip side, if Sean Green has to pitch to 7-9 in the 8th inning in a tie game starting with the bases clear because you used Kameron Loe in the 6th inning to keep the game tied, so be it. By that time you're free to consider using Axford if Green eventually works his way into trouble. Keep in mind I'm not blaming Green for the loss, but just pointing out the flawed logic. In happier thoughts, it's great to see Corey Hart again. Jon Luc continues to get it done, I'm excited to see him continue to develop. Provided no setbacks we'll be seeing ZG in about a week. Tony Plush will be back soon, as will Saito. Even in a tough loss, things are looking up.

D-X, nWo, and The Nation are staples. D-X and nWo are easily #1 and #2 for me. I also liked the Dudley Family faction in ECW, especially once Bubba and D-Von turned heel and started having Joel Gertner as their ring announcer. Hilarious. The Corporate Ministry with HHH, Undertaker, Shane McMahon, The Acolytes, and the Big Boss Man was a good time, too.

Laser beam, Rickie! Very nice. Quick wrists.

Bunting with 8 and 9 coming up is just ugh. Good to see Corey back. Looking forward to his start in RF tomorrow.

Gomez keeps the good sequence, bad sequence trend going.

Estrada hitting 95? Remarcoble. Good start!

Almonte to the 7-day DL, Hart activated per FSN. Interesting.

Get after it, YuniB. I want to hear Uecker call of a YuniB walkoff.

Great slide by Braun. He five holed Quintero with his foot. Otherwise he'd have been out.

Wow, that may have been the worst three minutes of baseball I've seen, between the Astros and then that rundown.

That was hilarious. Astros literally falling all over themselves.

Braun is locked in. He crushed that mistake.

They launched Prince's new music tonight, apparently. Rickie's at bat song is "Hustle Hard" by Ace Hood.

Wow Hunter, just wow. LOL

No Weeks today: Counsell 4 Gomez 8 Braun 7 Fielder 3 McGehee 5 Kotsay 9 Betancourt 6 Lucroy 2 Marcum 1 Looking forward to seeing Marcum pitch again.
