Day games are on 1070 (I heard Jim before). Unfortunately my reception of 1070 sucks at work. Or at least my radio sucks..

It's 1070, not your radio. I get a high pitched tone on top of the signal here at work. I think 1070's signal is powered by a couple of hamsters turning a generator, and one gets nights off.

I gotta recomment gameday audio to all 1070 listeners. I love it, can stream it at work through my pc (so the boss still thinks im listening to music). It's cheap and you can listen to Ueker even when out of town.

Update on what Jimmy or Bob is saying for us folks who don't have a radio at the moment?

[Terok Balefire]

Len said the game should start around 2:15.

[Brewers77]

2:30 gametime now. Field is clear.

[Team Canada]

Colorado is whuppin on the Mets. If we win we'd have the best record in the bigs.

[Fatter than Joey]

Johnny needs to hit 7th with that OBP. Batting 8th he wouldn't take the walk opportunities available to clear the pitcher.

 

Couldnt agree more.

[patrickgpe]

sweet, that we have baseball this afternoon, lets get a sweep

[schwaby131647185073]

Powel Just said a nw start time was announced 230

[BrewCrewForever]

SO at 2:30pm we have baseball from Miller Park South? Very nice.

[RightFieldCoder]

It's just odd. Normally Ben only throws 2 pitches in a game.

 

I thought he always threw a 2-seamer, just not that often. I could have sworn that he had 3 pitches, 4, 2, and curve but 4 and 2 are so similar people counted them as the same.

 

Sheets is so awesome, even a no-no isn't good enough. He should make the offense look so bad that hits from other games are taken away. He should also account for 10 runs a game. Anything short of that shows he doesn't have the will or talent to win.

[rluzinski]

If there is a strikeout pitcher out there, and Fielder and Hall strikeout out with men on, then it can be assumed that Estrada is more likely to put the ball in play than Jenkins.

 

He also has a higher chance of ending the inning completely and a lower chance of plating multiple runs.

[sheethead]

Lilly pad is going to get smoked today, I just have that feeling.

[RightFieldCoder]

Russ is correct. With runners on and two out, who cares if the guy is a K machine. He could K 200 times a year, but if he slugs and obp at a decent clip, I wouldn't care.

[BrewCrewForever]

As far as I knew Sheets throws the 4-seam, 2-seam, curveball and once in a while a changeup.

[Blazer25]

Play Ball!

[PrinceFielder28]

Play Ball!!!

[DrG1ue]

...and the home of theeeeeeeeeeee BRAAAAAAAAAAAAVE.

 

PLAY BALL!

On WGN, Bob Brenley is complimenting Cub fans for sticking with the rainy conditions last night. Seats looked pretty empty to me once it started to pour, and there were a lot more "Let's Go Brewers" chants than "Let's Go Cubbies".

[BrewCrewForever]

Shwoing Keaton throwing out that first pitch reminds me that he was by far the best Batman.

[madjeff66]

WGN saying Yost took a tumble yesterday AM and broke his collarbone.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/embarassed.gif

[NeedMoreFans]

Why was Fielder showing bunt on the first two pitches of his AB?

[jloos19]

I don't know if anyone has noticed because our team has played so well lately, but Weeks is definitely slumping again. His OBP is down to .340, while his average is around .240. Plus, he isn't slugging, as all of his hits recently that I can remember have been singles.

[hawing]

I could tell right away that the game must have resumed...because the chat room is chock full, again.

 

Yeah, well, we outsiders will have our own fun.

[PrinceFielder28]

Another k added to Hall's total
