Yadier Molina bugs me

2 outs. David Freese (Brewer killer) up to bat

Cardinals with 1 out in the 9th. (this is where Extra Innings comes in handy) 127 pitches

BA amd Rock just jinxed it

Wolf with 78 pitches through 3..guess the bullpen will get their work in tonight.

*facepalm*

Perhaps Luc just "took one for the team" to get them fired up and get them on a winning streak

That would be pretty epic

The things you learn from Vin Scully. Apparently Greinke's parents were both teachers and he played first base in grade school.

Not sure who we have that would fit the criteria of "impact prospects", I wouldnt want to deal any pitchers named Thornburg or Peralta though.

Braun's call was bogus but Ramirez swung through

This umpire is going to make for a long night.

As a fan, I get that people are upset about the Lucroy situation. However, harassing a player and even worse a player's family member over something which none of us truly know the story (fabricated or not) is just beyond classless. Besides, he isnt obligated to report to us, the fans on what happens outside of his job. I really want to believe that the "fans" sending the hate mail and messages are the bandwagoner's that have jumped on the Brewers train in the last couple years and not true Brewers fans.

great save for Ax and first major league win for Fiers!!!

Rickie almost just earned himself a DL stint there.

nice catch by Hart! Would Aoki would have had that?

is Scully on the radio? Im not finding the Dodgers broadcast on Extra Innings

solid 1st inning for Fiers

Didn't see your post...but obviously I agree. I think we need to sit Braun now for the sake of his health. This is ridiculous. I said yestserday that Braun should be sitting just because he clearly isn't healthy. There was a double hit over his head that Braun catches 9 times out of 10. Now I'm not saying that he's a good defender, but despite him not always getting a good read on the ball or mis-playing it, when he does get a beat on it, he can cover some ground. This ball bounced about a step and a half away from him before the track(or just on it, can't quite recall) and I thought watching Braun it was gone just the way he was jogging after it. Either after 5 years Braun has gotten lazy, or that achillies and or hamstring injury is sure hampering him right now. If it's the prior...I wouldn't mess with it. It'd be like Gallardo having a sore elbow. THAT SAID, I'm not as worried as I probably should be. Aram's hitting well, Aoki looks like Ichiro(please refrain, I'm using hyperbole, but he looks like a very good hitter) and Hart is hitting well. If Morgan can come around, Gomez is in a funk(otherwise known as his entire career, but if he can get back to TAKING that 1st pitch slider that you know is coming and that he did for 6 weeks) and Weeks can finally turn it around our offense could be alright. I keep dogging on Kottaras, and he's AWFUL defensively, but I just looked going into tonights game and his OBP was like .460 or something outrageous. If he can just go .220/.360/.420 I'll be happy. I'm also confident that Fiers will come through and pitch well. Not great, but 6 2/3 4 ER's type well...well enough that he can help get our rotation stabilized. Nothing's really changed from last years rotation to this years. They're actually looking good. Edit-Good god I just went back and counted the "If's," in my optimistic outlook. Ok, start calling teams. Greinke, Hart, Marcum, Wolf, Morgan....short of a 8-2 run which we need with these guys OUT or banged up...we're going to be a seller. And good GOD I hope I'm wrong about Profar and those I've debated with are right and he can be had for Greinke. Braun is not going to sit. He's going to play at whatever percent healthy he is - you don't sit your best player. If he needs to sit he can go on the disabled list. Sorry, my Braun comment should have been in blue. I was posting from my phone at the time

Well at least since hes coming from Nashville he should be used to catching Fiers.

FWIW, my carry on suitcase (the ones you see pilots using) weighs just over 14lbs empty. So its plausible.

I think we need to sit Braun now for the sake of his health. This is ridiculous.

Having the Extra Innings package I always make it a point to listen to Vin Scully when the Brewers play in LA. He truly is a legend.

Well at least it wont be a series sweep now!

nice save! I'll take it.
