5/7/07 Nationals (Chico) @ Brewers (Capuano): 7:05 PM CDT

[Schlitz001]

Capuano looked great tonight and the Brewers continue to dominate.

[parkside21]

Go Brewers!

 

Wasn't Dmitri Young at least decent when he was with the Tigers? He had some really, really awful at-bats tonight. Looked like he didn't even care......maybe playing for the Nationals will do that to you, or maybe he's contributing just as much as the others to their suckage.

 

I'm wondering if they go to Turnbow tomorrow if they're in a save situation. Cordero has pitched a few days in a row now, and yes, that one outing was only one pitch. However, Brian Anderson made a good point tonight when he mentioned that it's not really the one pitch he threw in the game that counts, it's that he got up in the bullpen to get loose, where he probably threw 30 pitches. Those pitches in the pen count just as much as the ones in the game, in my opinion.

 

Plus, I'd kind of like to see what Turnbow could do tomorrow in a 9th inning situation, and use Villanueva in the 8th, if need be.

[parkside21]

jjgott, welcome to the board.

[giffted1]

This winning stuff is great.

 

Great game by Cappy, JJ's streak reaches 18 games, Jenkins hits a lefty, and Coco continues to be perfect.

Another nice game to watch. Just over 2 hours, too! An extra hour to watch 24, Heroes, and CSI: Miami, plus check out a present I received in the mail today.

 

Cappy looked great. Shame that we had to use Cordero, which probably makes him unavailable tomorrow, but that's why we have Turnbow, I suppose.

 

Can one be more excited for tomorrow's game than we all are? The work day just can't go fast enough when your team is winning.

[soup can for prez]

Cappy=5-0

I've watched this same game dozens of times over the past few years... solid pitching (one pitch away from being spectacular) coupled with the inability to get timely hits. It feels good to be on the other side for a change.

[rluzinski]

22-10 record and even the lurkers can no longer resist! This is just getting insane.

[JET15]

I'm still amazed with Jenks hitting a HR against the lefty. You know it's going good when stuff like that is going down

[bucks2281]

Ever since that suspended game in Florida, this team is 19-6.

I know exactly what you mean. I had these same thoughts watching tonight.

 

 

Feeling alright sir?

 

Just fine, Dak, how about you?

 

Right now I feel like I could take on the whole Empire by myself

 

I know what you mean, Dak, I know what you mean

[Tailgat0r76]

Just got back, what a great game! Great day to have Jenkins in our dollar game we played as well!

 

I noticed we were in the same section as the man himself; Brian the Automator.

 

Great game all around; definitely a whole lot of buzz surrounding this team at the park and out of it!

[wisconsinfan47]

I really am not fond of games in which all runs come in one inning, or worse, on one swing of the bat.

 

I like what we did in the Pirates series, getting key runs when they were needed.

 

That said, a win is a win is a win. 22-10, baby.

[berniebrewer4life]

Just got back from the game, had a lot of fun. Probably the fastest game i have ever been to. Glad to see Jenkins finally getting some hits vs a lefty.

[Bench Coach]

This is getting ridiculous, as soon as one game ends I want the other to start. I may need a 10 step program.

[splitterpfj]

Great time at the game tonight, out of there a good half hour before I thought I would be.

 

Thanks to the fans in the RF bleachers, that was a great atmosphere.

[DHarris34Phan]

Kearns almost tied it up in the top of the ninth....

 

That was too close for me (I was in the bleachers)

[stoops17]

wow, lot of people at the game tonight (from the boards), fastest game I have been to since a Sheets game last year that was like 110 minutes

[hawing]

Indeed, JET15. This conversation took place in our living room last night:

 

hawing (looking at FSN graphic indicating Jenkins' .133 average vs. lefties): What do they have Jenkins in here for?

 

Geoff: *crack of bat for 3-run HR*

 

S.O.: There you go.

[Invader3K]

Yeah, I had fun at the game last night as well. Wish there could have been a bigger crowd. I think they announced 17,000 or so. Guess the Brewers just are never going to draw big numbers during weekday night games before the end of May.
