Lets go Cappy! Welcome back! Beat the streak!
-
Good job, Yovani! Give us something to smile about.
-
Meanwhile, Yo strands the bases loaded. Good job, Yo. lol
-
LOL, bad umpiring costs Galarraga a perfect game. Another example of how terrible the umpiring has been this year.
-
More awesome defense. Even though it is kind of hard to fault a guy for losing a ball in the lights.
-
Zaun to the 60-day DL could clear a 40 man spot if they don't want to DFA anyone. Loe's another arm to throw at the wall who could give us multiple innings if nothing else.
-
After what could have been an encouraging homestand, we're back to playing embarrassing baseball. Nice going, Brewers.
-
Ken, you might want to take Narveson out now. Maybe?

I enjoy the red hat and I told myself I'd never buy the white hat, but I bought one anyway. It's a nice cap, I wore it yesterday and it kept my head fairly cool in the sun ... or at least as cool as a fitted cap can keep you. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif The Uecker Memorial Day message reading was pretty awesome. Davey just commented that Braun said again he isn't seeing the ball well at Miller Park during day games. Here we go again, lol.

Nice picture, Hawing! We could see the top step of the dugout from our seats. Cappy pretty much sat on the top step all game. He was the first guy to greet Suppan when he came in and gave him the traditional butt slap. I tried to use the iPhone app to diagnose Inglett's batting music, but I timed it wrong so I still don't know what it is. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

Normally I don't care if people get booed, and the way Suppan pitched I wasn't expecting anyone to cheer him. My thought is at this point is when do we get into Turnbow Territory with Suppan and the booing. We know how the booing ruining Turnbow's psyche and basically turned him into a shell of his former self. Booing Suppan isn't all of a sudden going to turn him into a 3 ERA pitcher. Right now we have to start looking at Melvin and thinking about getting some mercy for this guy, and by that I mean taking him off the team. If they're going to keep giving him the ball, it's not like he's going to say "no I can't take the ball." To boo him because he isn't good is pointless, or at least that's how I feel about it. If other people want to boo him, that's their thing. For me, it is time to look at the guys who keep running him out there and if we're booing, direct the boos at them.

A few more thoughts now that I'm home from the game. It was definitely a warm one in the stadium! I really liked how the lineup was set up today, although it appeared Wolf and Lucroy weren't on the same page at all. It didn't help Wolf couldn't seem to throw strikes to save his life. Early on it felt like he went 3-2 on everybody. I've never heard anyone get booed as lustily as Suppan was today. From the time he entered the game until he was mercifully replaced by Estrada the boos were overwhelming. As dlk said, Suppan probably feels as terrible as anyone about how poorly he has pitched and the boos just seem like senseless piling on at this point. The more he got booed, the worse he pitched. It's not like he isn't trying, he's just not very good anymore. That one's on Macha for putting him in a position to fail in a tie game, although considering Suppan was up twice before he actually warmed up to come in, I can understand them being hard pressed to ask him to sit down again and then warm up a third time. Suppan was up in the 4th and was ready before the double play in the 5th, so to sit him down there might have meant he wouldn't be available later. Not that I was exactly happy to see him pitch, but those are things you don't really see on TV that could factor into a manager's decision. Granted, the way Braddock pitched it is likely the same outcome would have happened anyway, but it is still something to ponder. All told a 4-2 homestand isn't bad. We doubled our home victory output on the season!
-
Positive thinking: when we tie this game, Suppan has already been used so Macha can't use him again. LOL.
-
So much for the dunkers, Soup is getting crushed. The crowd cheered the mound visit hoping they'd take him out. These boos are insane.
-
Nothing brings out the boo birds at MP this year like Suppan. He is getting dink and dunked to death in this inning.
-
Go Brewers! I am at the game in 410 today. I'd really like to see a win!
-
That is pretty awesome. It is great to see contributions across the board!
-
GoGo! Nice job. That kid can fly.
-
Nice use of Coffey by Macha there. That was a pretty high leverage situation and it appears that Macha has faith in Axford and Braddock to pitch in the later innings, which is good.
-
Halladay got it. In other news, what was up with them making Coffey change gloves?
-
Gee Corey. You're really going to make Macha think about platooning you with Edmonds, which I'm sure he'll do anyway because it's Macha. Although, you are sure doing a good job of "writing your name in the lineup card."
-
Hopefully we're starting to see Hart progress back towards his career norms vs. RHP.
-
LOL, Oliver Perez is warming up. Perez and Parra pitching in the same game would be fitting. Two guys with loads of stuff and loads of inconsistency.
-
Hart is on fire! It's a good time for it.
-
Even when the Brewers are dressed as the Milwaukee Bears I still find it hard to say "Let's go, Bears." Instead I say "go 'crew!"
