7/5/08 Pirates (Maholm) at Brewers (Bush), 6:05 PM CDT

[owbc]

Fortunately, it's the Pirates, so it only cost us 1 run.

[brewmann04]

Hardy needed top call off Weeks there, but Bush seems to do well when his job seems to be on the line.

[ELCABALLO45]

Lets get some runs

[cruiserx43]

Alright some hits plz?!?!?

[ELCABALLO45]

How long can we afford to have Weeks hit leadoff

[thablingster]

Jason Kendall looked like he was really concentrating on his bat there in the dugout. That or he was practicing his mad guitar hero skills.

[thablingster]

Jack Wilson hates the Brewers. Trade him to Los Angeles already. lol

 

We'll get Maholm in the 7th, Bush needs to put up another 0.

[ELCABALLO45]

Cy Bush!

[thablingster]

Nice job, Dave.

 

Prince, this would be a good time for a moonshot off Paulie boy. Bush starts the 8th, Shouse up and if any trouble looms Torres comes in. Circumvent a need for the Mota Relief Fund.

[Pedro]

We need some offense tonight.

 

I think we should trade Sabathia for some young offensive talent like LaPorta, Green and...wait, I'm confused, what do we need, who do we have? I just spent 40 minutes reading the trade rumors thread and drinking wine. My brain is scrambled.

[owbc]

Grr. Leadoff hit erased in 30 seconds.

[thablingster]

Jack Wilson is the most annoying shortstop this side of David Eckstein.

[ELCABALLO45]

Bush got lucky... I don't have a good feeling

[owbc]

Bush has finally been pitching up to his potential. I want to see him go the distance tonight. It isn't luck.

 

I'm starting to think we need a Bush/McClung. pitching platoon. Bush at home and McClung on the road ;-)

[tigerbrew]

Great job by Bush, he deserves a win. Come on Offense!

[owbc]

Bill Hall, can you go deep please?

[ELCABALLO45]

Hey Indians, why wouldn't you want Bush?

[owbc]

Thanks Billy, that works.

[Vgmastr]

What the heck was that? Why not just have Kendall bunt?

[thablingster]

Ugh. Wow. I know Kendall wanted to try and take second on that, but yuck.

[ELCABALLO45]

Oh my god

[PeaveyFury]

You know, it's not just that Billy hasn't played well this year, he's also not doing anything right whatsoever.

[owbc]

I forgot that Hall is a bad baserunner.

 

Inning over.

 

Ouch. Booooo!

[Pedro]

I just swore in front of my kids...thanks crew.

[cruiserx43]

Crew showcasing those baserunning skills, don't deserve to win this one.
