glad to get to hear benny on the first spring broadcast

[MillerParkSouth]

is the free internet audio broadcast thing going on or is that deal over?

[AJAY]

Wow, it's just awesome to hear Uecker's voice again. I had to pause and appreciate the moment when he first said "From beautiful and sunny Maryvale Arizona, Bob Uecker along with Jim Powell bringing you Brewers baseball . . . "

 

The boys are back baby !!!

It looks like Gameday is working pretty good now so I'm going to call it a day. Someone can take over if they really want.

[Schlitz001]

No Jim today. Still it's good to here Bob.

[trwi7]

Jim Powell is sick and not announcing today. Get well soon Jim!

[endaround]

Wow, Uek for a full 9 today.

[mls4]

For some reason I am holding my breath while Sheets is pitching. Sorry I can't help it. Hopefully I'll feel better after his first outing of the spring.

[trwi7]

Sheets with a walk, god he sucks.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[Bert55]

I too am happy to hear uek and Brewers baseball.

[trwi7]

2-0 Giants.

[Bert55]

2-0 Giants after we got the first 2 batters out....We are just playing with them

[bucksman4]

Typical 1st inning for Sheets. IMO, one of the reasons why he doesn't "WIN" more games...when you consistently put your own batters behind the 8-ball early in the game, you certainly put pressure on them to score.

 

He has to come out ready to pitch strong at the outset, enough said.

[Brewers77]

If only it were that easy buck. Why dont you just become the coach

[iluvlamp]

I hate that I can't listen to this. I could I guess but 15 bucks buys other stuff I need.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

Man i could get use to that play by our top three hitters. Weeks walks, steals second, goes to third on error. Singled in by Hardy and Hart singles. those three are going to be good this year!

[sgtcluels]

Wow..guess contract year helps Jenks eh?

[Brewers77]

Guess fans get on jenkins for a couple bad months and now they will continue even when he has a good year again. Love you guys.

[trwi7]

God keep these bats going like this all season and we're going to the playoffs.

[vbkooler]

hopefully we can face pitchers all year who are just working on stuff and not trying to get people out. Playoffs for sure then

[Bert55]

for the first time, let me add

 

 

 

how bout those Brewers

[sgtcluels]

i'm pulling for Jenks personally. He just needs to stop swinging at low inside pitches. He knows it's coming but still swings! Just better plate vision and he'd be aight.

[strawbossisevil]

Come on bucksman4, its his first outing of Spring Training. Its not unexpected that some top level pitchers get hit around a bit in their first outings. They are working on getting a feel for all of their pitches, and tinkering around with new pitches (for example Sheets is working on using his changeup more).

 

This isn't the regular season, so lets hold off criticizing Sheets until the season actually starts.

 

Edit: Wow that top half of the second inning was fast.

[bucksman4]

Oh, I'm not criticizing Sheets for THIS particular game...the book on Sheets is jump on him early..and during the regular season, he's known to give up big 1st innings. He has to come out of the bullpen in game-mode right away.
