7/8/07 Brewers (Capuano) @ Nationals (Redding): 12:35 PM CDT

I hate waiting for this team to hit HRs. It would be nice if we could string together a few hits every once in a while.

[Oldcity]

Tony Gwynn makes me angry.

[PeaveyFury]

It's hard to run when you're lying on your back.

 

Yeah, he made a real quick effort to get up and head to first.....

[Oldcity]

There's no way Capuano could have made it to first. He was just getting up when Redding was throwing it to second.

[moofnelson]

The Brewers look like they have no intention of scoring runs today.

[adambr2]

Getting shut out by the Nationals. Crappy lineups generally yield pretty crappy results.

[packfan79]

I am sick of Bill and Brian talking about how good this guys stuff is, if it were so good he wouldn't have been pitching in the minors the last couple of years. Call it like it is our offense has sucked today. We are losing to a bunch of backups!

[bobskube]

Why is Jenkins not playing? Yes, I know he has been subpar lately, but you cannot have Gross-Gwynn-Counsell-pitcher in the order.

 

To me that is just stupid. I think they should just use Gwynn as an extra baserunner or defensive replacement.

They better start hitting some homeruns this team can't manufacture a run to save its life.

Generally you need baserunners to manufacture runs. The Brewers have had a dearth of baserunners in this game.

I haven't seen cappy look this good in a while. he's keeping the ball down and locating very well. i think its time for every brewer to grow a beard... yeah that means you Yost.

[bobskube]

Oh, by the way, when does someone start the inevitable "Vinny Rottino" thread?

 

That usually gets a laugh or two when we start slumping.

[steve267268]

We may be getting shut down right now... But there is absolutely no way they shut us out. We are going to score at least two runs in this game. Knowing that, we must hold them to the one they already have. Certainly doable.

I guess I should have left Cappy off that list. The man's batting over .300 now.

I want to know this as well... BA said earlier in the game that Jenkns was a "late scratch". Confusing..

[Kpanz20]

Lets go Prince!

[JoeH33]

For the love of all things holy; please get a hit here Prince.

[PrinceFielder28]

Let's go Prince!

[jhart05]

The Prince!!!!

[whynotthebrewers]

In this weird world of baseball I find it amusing that people are now calling for the likes of graffy, CC, and Jenks now that we are struggling. Things are not going well but its everybody, not just a couple guys. We can't string hits together and I am getting frustrated as well.

 

And just like that we got two runs. We need that one.

[crewcrazy]

Prince! Alright!

Hey, you were right! Great clutch hit by Prince!!

[moofnelson]

Thank you, Prince.

[Kpanz20]

yes! prince! double off the left-center wall to score 2

[wisconsinfan47]

Prince can keep those shades on as much as he wants.
