Bell with a 2-run bomb!!!

[bucks2281]

It's good to see David Bell really heating up on this homestand. Boy, it would be nice to sweep a four game series!!

YESS

[Team Canada]

I love Mike Rivera.

[bucks2281]

Mike Rivera!!

 

That was an inch away from our first grand slam of the season...too bad http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

That must sting for Matt Cain...to give up such a game-turning hit on an 0-2 count.

[thablingster]

In play, run-scoring play.

 

That's the best thing I've seen all day. Especially considering all I've been seeing all day is my fantasy football team getting trounced thanks to Favre and Willie Parker. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

Every time Mike Rivera gets a hit I get a warm fuzzy feeling inside. lol

Coco is struggling today...

[1992casey]

DOUBLE PLAY!!!!!

[bucks2281]

Yay!! We avoid a 90-loss season!! And we have a 5-game winning streak!! (tied for longest of the season)

[sgtcluels]

Hurrahy! Sweep! Thanks for the home games 2k6 crew! We'll see yo uguys next year!

[thablingster]

A 4 game sweep, how sweet it is.

 

We won't lose 90 games this year. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

 

I'm going to be greedy now and say I'd like us to finish at least 4-2 so we only lose 85. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/pimp.gif

[pitchleague]

what?!?!?!? Only ONE page of in-game thread? For a win? Completing a 4-game sweep?!?!?! A five-game winning streak?!?!?!?

 

C'mon, you guys can't seriously be watching your fantasy pre-season hockey team a;ready.

[pogokat]

yay...

[saget]

Hey that Sheets guy is pretty good.

 

I completely forgot they were playing today. They took a backseat to my first born Packers.

Well the Packers played, the game was only on Telemundo, it was on 1340 on the radio but I can't get that station (not sure about others.) So I can understand why the game thread isn't very long.

[brettac1]

Yeah, how about the ace today?

[AJAY]

I had a great time at the game today. I met "dadofandrew" (Al) and his son before the game. I was also able to shake hands with Mark Attanasio.

 

Nice to finish the home schedule with a sweep. I was happy that Sheets got some run support. The 9th inning made me a little nervous because I thought Bonds was going to pinch hit with the bases loaded. For some reason, he never came.

 

After the game, all the players came out and saluted the fans by throwing Brewers merchandise into the stands. It was a nice day all around.

 

SWEEEEEEEEEEP !!!!!!!

Did you ask him the tough questions?http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[BrewCrewForever]

For anyone who went to the game, how sweet were the free shirts they gave away for the first 15,000? Anyone got a picture?

[AJAY]

The T-shirts were awesome. They were retro-blue and had "Milwaukee" written in yellow script. There was also a small ball and glove logo on it. The shirts sort of resembled the batting practice jerseys that the players wear on retro-Sundays (although slightly different).

 

The best thing I liked was that it wasn't one of those giveaways that had the sponsor's ads all over it. There was a little Miller Brewing thing on the shoulder but that's it. . . . and I like Miller so I didn't mind.

great sweep by the Brewers great job by the Fans.
