CRUSH! OVERWHELM! OPPRESS! (iluvlamp)

[Lil Dummy]

This seems like a pretty lousy pitching matchup, but for some reason I have faith in both Vargas and our bats today. My gut says a Brewers W, somehow, someway.

[uwbufu24]

I'm doing my part for America by cheering for the Nationals. 1-0 in their favor through one. Let's hope for some solid defense and improved at-bats for our lineup today.

[hawing]

Oh, goody. Another 3:05 start.

 

National Weather Service says a 50% chance of storms in PIT during the day, up to 70% by night. So at least maybe it'll be overcast and the sun angle won't be an issue.

 

Go Brewers! (and go Nats)

[TooLiveBrew]

Uh oh! Lil' Captain Jack Wilson totally owns Vargas!

 

Captain Jack will get you by tonight...

And take you to your special .329 OPS island....

 

 

Final game in Pitt

Time for another haiku

Let's get the Snell out!

[BrewCrewForever]

Come on guys, lets get this one, I don't wanna have to win the last game to ensure a split. I wanna go into the last game looking for a series win.

[adambr2]

Anyone know what the chances of them getting this one in are? I heard heavy rains in Pittsburgh, but I just took a look at the radar, and it doesn't look that bad at all. Not sure?

[Schlitz001]

Hunter Pence looks to have a good lead on ROY with half the season gone. Don't forget about Troy Tulowitzki, Tim Lincecum, Chris Sampson and in some respects Mark Reynolds. They could all step up their game for the second half.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

cubs down 6-0 after dimitri young grand slam. yippie

[LUKE232323]

Grand Slam by Dmitri Young. 6-0 Nationals in the 5th.

[SlideBernieSlide]

6-0 Nats. Lets not blow that...please. Chico is pitching well...he actually pitched well against the Crew after surrending a 3 run bomb to Jenks

[Lil Dummy]

"cubs down 6-0 after dimitri young grand slam. yippie "

 

Take it to the non-Brewers IGT! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[cruiserx43]

That picture of Ray King on Gameday is something else. He looks like he is starting a slow progression into Jabba the Hut.

[Oldcity]

It would be great if we could steal a win here with Sheets going tomorrow. I just dislike this pitching matchup a lot, but hopefully they can get to the Pirates bullpen again. Here's to another Kuwata sighting!

[wisconsinfan47]

On a non-Cubs vs. Nationals related note, weather.com has a 50% of storms for the game today, with heavier showers coming in the early evening.

 

Accuweather.com on the other hand, has mostly cloudy skies for most of the afternoon/evening.

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

Yay! CUBS LOSE... lead back to 6 games....

 

Time to make it 6 1/2 again Boys

[UeckerAddict]

Hunter Pence needs to slow down for two reasons:

1. Let Braun pass him

2. I just traded Pence off of my fantasy team, which takes effect next week.

[LUKE232323]

Counsell and Gross? Yuck.

[SlideBernieSlide]

You know I gotta think this Gross start is more a Bill Hall thing. Billy has looked like an absolute confused turd in CF at PNC. He's had two really bad defensive games in a row...its like early April type of mistakes. Misjudging balls off the bat...taking bad routes etc. So i don't mind giving Billy a day to re-collect himself.

 

Plus, maybe Ned is hoping Gross treats Snell like he did Freddy Garcia. I remeber that game back in Philly in May when Garcia dominated every Brewer but Gross. Gabe went yard twice in that game. Here's to hoping!

 

Also why I am relived that we don't face Matt Chico this weekend in RFK? Thats odd.

[jazzytrav]

Is it that hard to get guys a day off that we have to have multiple players sitting the same day?

[Schlitz001]

50% of storms

 

So it might storm or it might not? Did I miss an update on Hardy?

[UeckerAddict]

Hope I'm not stealing your thunder Brian.

[TooLiveBrew]

no update yet, still has that stomach flu apparently...

 

My guess is that they'll play, but have to wait out at least one rain delay. Anything better than that is sweet! There are spotty yet severe T-storms moving on a line that aims right through Pittsburgh, but they aren't wide enough to pose certain rain-out doom. I hope they can get this one in.

Good try, TLB

But this is a four-game set

Pirates Thursday, too.

 

Hey, Claudio, bring the good stuff today. Do it for America!
