Kapler in CF again? What did Mike say to Ned?

[BrewCrewForever]

I believe Cameron is a bit banged up and just getting a few days off.

 

Hopefully the "Age of McClung" as my friends and I have dubbed it rolls on tonight!

[TooLiveBrew]

Jason, I get the MASN feed on Extra Innings -- my guess is that the FSN-WI folks have a well-earned day off. I'd say head for your favorite sports bar with Extra Innings. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Brawndo the Thirst Mutilat]

If you have direcTV, game is on 669. I don't have Extra Innings, so I think you should get the game no matter what.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

CC'S hustle getting to third on hardys single got us that run. all the big boys made outs

[WV Brew]

Interesting stat from O's TV. Hart is 2nd in MLB for RISP and 2 outs. Who'd of thunk it? Ichiro number one.

[jazzytrav]

At least in Oshkosh, it's on the normal FSN channel. You should be able to get it Jason. It doesn't show it on the guide because it's a WMLW broadcast, but they still put the game on.

[crewcrazy]

WOW...Hart crushed that ball. An early 3-0 courtesy of The Hitman is always nice. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[hawing]

Corey didn't surrender during that at-bat. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Big Seth McClung. Wow.

 

(I thought Seth's performance thus far tonight warranted its own post, despite the resulting consecutive posts.)

[markedman5]

For the experts.

 

When is it ok to entertain the thought that Seth doesn't stink anymore?

 

He sure looks like he might have figured something out to me.

[endaround]

Is Bill really that dense that he doesn't understand that with men on 2nd and 3rd in the 5th with one out and down by 3 that giving yourself a 20% greater chance to score is very much worth it?

[crewcrazy]

How do you get thrown out by Ramon Hernandez? Counsell must be slow as molasses.

 

Wasting leadoff walks on crappy steal attempts really sucks.

[olsonnet]

I'll take that Kendall DP if it means McClung stays in the game a little longer.

[LaprilOne]

Wow.

 

Was there last night, almost had to take a nap. This game sure is moving.

[crewcrazy]

It'll be interesting to see if McClung can get through the 7th unscathed. A day of rest for the bullpen after last night would definitely be a plus.

 

Edit: Guess not. Salazar crushed that one...yikes. Now the top of the order's coming up. Hopefully Seth can get that last out.

[PeaveyFury]

It'll be interesting to see if McClung can get through the 7th unscathed.

 

Nope, ugh. He's clearly hitting the wall.

[crewcrazy]

Even though he hit the wall at about 90 pitches, it was another solid start for Seth. Now Shouse just has to get one stinking out to get out of this with the lead still in tact.

[hurricanecrush]

CLAP CLAP CLAP...

 

Nice outing McDung!

 

(I know he doesn't deserve to be called McDung but I'm afraid if I stop, he'll start sucking)

[brewers19]

Why is Hall coming into the game? He's neither an upgrade defensively nor offensively.

[brewcrew00]

Unfortunately that's where the DS had to happen. Cameron is on the shelf, and Ned doesn't like going to the catcher.

[SlideBernieSlide]

Big Seth's first time past 90 pitches since 2005 and he hits the wall. Another strong start, though, from the big-righty. I'm starting to wonder when McClung became like the starter I have the 2nd most faith in?? A well-pitched game by both starters. Each made only one mistake...McClung's to Oscar Salazar while Cabrera made his to Hart.

[crewcrazy]

I'd love to see some insurance runs tacked on before Guillermo Mota takes the mound.

 

Base hit for Billy against a righty...it's a borderline miracle!
