WTF - I have Dan but no Al! How can I make it through? Oh, this is Fox, not FSN. I knew that.
   2. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 03:42 PM (#2776052)
Glaus being hurt subjects us to Miles for the foreseeable future, I guess.

Definite pitching edge to the Crew today.
   3. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 03:43 PM (#2776055)
So, that was quick.
   4. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 03:46 PM (#2776060)
Hart claims Kendall is the best 9-hole hitter in baseball. Clearly, he hasn't heard of Micah Owings.
   5. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:09 PM (#2776077)
Another TLR bunting disaster(TM)!
   6. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:12 PM (#2776079)
A non-Molina might have scored there...
   7. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:14 PM (#2776080)
I'll take that. Sheets is tough.
   8. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:32 PM (#2776090)
Pineiro has been lucky so far, but he's about one cm away from getting lit up.
   9. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:36 PM (#2776092)
Close - almost foul. But Duncan puts one in the upper deck.

3-0
   10. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 04:53 PM (#2776098)
Guts:

You are a young person. You should be outside listening on the radio while doing things that young people do.

And the Brewers offense stinks.....
   11. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:17 PM (#2776107)
Things young people do in law school is write really long papers, which is tragically an inside activity.
   12. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:19 PM (#2776108)
As for the Crew's offense, I sort of have to agree. What the heck happened to these guys?
   13. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:41 PM (#2776113)
It's falling apart again....Pineiro has pitched well today, but this is not encouraging.
   14. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:44 PM (#2776115)
NOT AT ALL GOOD.

Gwynn Jr.? Really?
   15. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:48 PM (#2776119)
Kendall walk RBI!!!!
   16. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:48 PM (#2776120)
Kendall walks. Goodness
   17. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:48 PM (#2776121)
So, McK's audition for the closer's role is off to a remarkably poor start.
   18. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:49 PM (#2776122)
Wow... that could have been worse if McClellan hadn't dropped the ball.
   19. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:50 PM (#2776123)
Guts:

What you just saw is why. Guy draws 4 PITCH WALK and Weeks swings at a ball low.

Sigh
   20. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:51 PM (#2776125)
It is nice having a catcher who will actually take a walk for once, BTW.
   21. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:51 PM (#2776126)
Also, Kendall has walked two games in a row now...
   22. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:52 PM (#2776127)
Another walk!!!!!!!! 3-2 STL
   23. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:52 PM (#2776128)
Wow!
   24. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:52 PM (#2776129)
The bullpen is trying to help them out now, by making the pitch nowhere even close to the plate.
   25. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:53 PM (#2776131)
Also, Kendall has walked two games in a row now...


His OBP is ~.370
   26. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:53 PM (#2776133)
The Brauntasaurus?
   27. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:54 PM (#2776134)
Gift call on the first pitch
   28. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:54 PM (#2776135)
Have to settle for the two runs. Still, that's OK.
   29. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 05:55 PM (#2776136)
Lucky there, but if this game gets blown in the 9th........
   30. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:02 PM (#2776140)
Ludwick has a reverse split, oddly enough.
   31. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:03 PM (#2776142)
Lucky there, but if this game gets blown in the 9th.....

So the Brewers taking the lead for good in the bottom of 8th is acceptable to all parties. Let's do it!
   32. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:04 PM (#2776143)
No excuse for Ludwick not playing everyday at this point, he plays good D and is just crushing the ball. /cfb
   33. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:07 PM (#2776145)
Hit and run on a 3-1 count? Really?
   34. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:09 PM (#2776147)
I guess that counts as a success?
   35. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:09 PM (#2776148)
That was ugly, but still turned into one out.
   36. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:14 PM (#2776151)
Too bad.
   37. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:18 PM (#2776154)
PRINCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tie game!
   38. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:19 PM (#2776156)
#### me. #29 was obviously a malprophecy.
   39. whoisalhedges Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:20 PM (#2776157)
PRINCE!!!
   40. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:34 PM (#2776169)
Another walk by the Cards bullpen. Not complaining!

Here's Kendall again....
   41. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:35 PM (#2776170)
Who missed the sign? Hall? Kendall?
   42. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:36 PM (#2776171)
BOO!
   43. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:40 PM (#2776173)
If that's Billy I am running out of patience. That's the third time this season he has run into an out via pickoff what have you.

Inexcusable!
   44. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:42 PM (#2776174)
Crowd sounds pretty cranky today.
   45. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:48 PM (#2776176)
This Gagne fella, he has issues...
   46. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:51 PM (#2776178)
Nice catch by Fielder (reaching into the dugout)!

That's potentially HUGE.
   47. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:55 PM (#2776179)
Crap... 5-3 STL
   48. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:56 PM (#2776181)
Ok, I reinstate #29.
   49. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:57 PM (#2776183)
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE DOES IZZY COME INTO THIS GAME. I MEAN IT. NO, REALLY, TLR. NO IZZY.
   50. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:58 PM (#2776184)
Wow... with the roof closed, those boos get loud.
   51. walt williams bobblehead Posted: May 10, 2008 at 06:59 PM (#2776185)
Since Yost used Gane, La Russa should use Izzy. It's a matter of professional curtesy.
   52. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:00 PM (#2776186)
Franklin, ok, can live with that.
   53. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:01 PM (#2776187)
TLR pwns Yost at every opportunity, as HW will gladly expound upon.
   54. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:04 PM (#2776188)
Were I a Brewers fan, I too would be pretty upset by this game.
   55. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:05 PM (#2776190)
Quick two outs, than a hit. Can it happen again?
   56. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:05 PM (#2776191)
Braun is killing us this series.
   57. Guts Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:07 PM (#2776193)
That makes up for last night.
   58. NTNgod Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:07 PM (#2776194)
Guess not.

That missed sign was a killer.
   59. Harveys Wallbangers Posted: May 10, 2008 at 07:08 PM (#2776195)
Well, if Gagne assists in pushing Yost out I will endure his travails....
