4 runs is a lot of ground to cover early.

[COOOOP]

Ugh the bleeding still hasn't stopped. I sense a Homer-Me-Elmo appearance coming up.

[crewcrazy]

By the way, that was Aramis Ramirez's 200th career homer, making that the second milestone homer the Brewers have given up so far this year. It should be noted that Barry Bonds is on pace to break the career record in Milwaukee.

At least Cordero will get a day off. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

check the bats for cork

[sheetswannabe]

BRIAN DID IT AGAIN! He said Derrek Lee, sorry Carlos Lee with another RBI

[crewcrazy]

Well I suppose 4-0 isn't as bad as it could be.

[sheetswannabe]

Hardy says BYE BYE! 4-1

[yfinn6]

Way to go JJ.

[Ennder]

I hate when Hardy hits HR's, thats not his game.

[crewcrazy]

Hopefully the JJ homer is the kind of thing to get a Zambrano meltdown started.

[COOOOP]

JJ! Could this be the start of the Meltdown ?

[aracko]

Thats right JJ!

 

2nd time around the order - things only get better for us from here on out.

[littledoc83]

Wow, Prince looked completely lost in that AB.

[hawing]

Homer-Me-Elmo

 

Thanks for the laugh. It's needed on a night like this.

[crewcrazy]

No matter how bad Johnny Estrada is behind the plate, at least the Brewers don't have Henry Blanco back there...how the heck does Hall get to first on that passed third strike, especially with the short distance to the wall behind the plate??

[littledoc83]

Brewers hitters have been fairly patient so far this year... then the one guy they need it the most against and it looks like they have totally abandoned the concept.

[sbrylski]

JJ going for 30 dingers this year I guess. I would have been rather happy with 20.

[Ennder]

Boy we needed that DP.

 

Please, please, please no DP here counsell.

[hawing]

Finally, an "easy" inning.

[hawing]

Wouldn't it be nice if this leadoff walk leads to the meltdown?

[COOOOP]

Good plate patience by our sixth outfielder!

[sheethead]

Pinch hitter after 68 pitches?

[Ennder]

Not a big fan of this pinch hit with our bullpen so tired right now.

[JET15]

TGJ is our best PH. I never would have guessed it
