Sweet!

[sheetswannabe]

Dont rub it!

[JrDave2304]

Ah hahaha. Wood looks great so far.

[Schlitz001]

Weeks just knows how to get hit.

[sheethead]

Now if Weeks can get on, steal a base, get bunted over and score.....I'd feel a lot better.

 

Step 1... check.

[azcheesehead]

Top of the Cubs lineup.........0-14!

[bjkrautk]

Time to jump all over Wood with the top of the order.

 

(Would you bunt with Gwynn to play for 1 run here?)

[trwi7]

Ugh why not let Weeks try to steal instead of giving up the out with a bunt?

[jazzytrav]

Anyone watching...was Weeks HBP more a result of the pitcher or of Weeks?

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

ATTA BABY TG2!

[jazzytrav]

Get 'em in. Bring in Gagne. End this now.

[And That]

Wood threw it way off target. It hit Weeks in the back.

[bjkrautk]

Now if Weeks can get on, steal a base, get bunted over and score.....I'd feel a lot better.

 

Step 2, check (at least the bunt part).

[Fear The Chorizo]

Weeks pretty much got drilled between the numbers

[sheetswannabe]

the Pitcher look responsible, ball looked like it slipped

[crossface21]

Maybe because of the conditions they didn't want to risk it. Probably a little slower out there with the wet ground. In any case, we have Fielder and Braun coming up. Gotta like our chances.

[Schlitz001]

I think Weeks just doesn't get out of the way of pitches coming right at him. Other batters might have made a better effort of getting out of the way.

[sheetswannabe]

Walk Fielder, for Braun?s Fielder had one nice swing.

[jazzytrav]

Thanks AT, Gameday doesn't exactly fill in the details. And Weeks is good at sticking his elbow out there.

[mls4]

FYI, Weeks is now tied for 6th in most career HBP by a Brewer batter.

[JrDave2304]

yeah BRAUNIE!

[trwi7]

BRAUN!!!!!!!!!!

[Schlitz001]

YESSSS!!!!

[crossface21]

YES!!!!

[And That]

Teach you to walk Fielder to get to Braun!
