Great job tonight, Matty!

[Bruce Ciskie]

Ugh. Wise pitches well, so Shouse comes in to get one guy and can't do it.

 

Just once I'd like to see everyone in that bullpen pitch well at one time.

[jloos19]

Turnbow time, to quote Daron Sutton, "Good night everyone!"

[AdvantageSchneider]

This is the season right here folks.

Man, if only I had a nickel for every time this got posted here.

If Turnbow blows this lead, I think the server may go down with an overload of Ned Yost is a horrible manager posts. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[Bruce Ciskie]

So...on what planet is Turnbow a better option here than Shouse or Cordero?

[fondybrewfan]

In Wild Card news, Atlanta had the bases loaded with no one out in the 9th against Cincy and didnt score. Cincy wins

[SoCalBrewfan]

Turnbow v. Belliard. Somehow seems even more dramatic than the situation dictates.

[AdvantageSchneider]

That's huge. We need an effective Turnbow to make a run in the wildcard.

[jloos19]

We may have found a new role for Turnbow. Great job! Insurance runs wouldn't be frowned upon here...

[hawing]

It's kind of like a bizarre game of whack-a-mole. You think one guy is solved and another problem crops up.

[Bruce Ciskie]

And Turnbow gets away with a HORRIBLE pitch on 0-2. Thank goodness the Cardinals didn't have a real hitter up, because it would be 5-4 if they did.

[thablingster]

Derrick still looks a little scared out there, but he got out of it. Nice job.

[no19no1]

Our offense is really, really bad folks.

 

We did score 4 runs on Carpenter.

[Riebes24]

Turnbow is God.

[fondybrewfan]

Since that was the season right there, do we qualify for the playoffs with those outs?

[SoCalBrewfan]

There is dodging a bullet. After July, though, Turnbow stranding a runner on second with one out seems more improbable than running across no-mans-land at the Somme without a scratch.

[jloos19]

Wait, Bill Hall only gets a mini bobblehead? Does this make any sense?

[SoCalBrewfan]

The Bill Hall mini bobblehead doesn't look impressive, but it can fix a flat tire, erase malware from your computer, and vacuum your living room like a Roomba.

*Standing applause.*

[MillerBombers]

I know it is a small sample size, but Tony Gwynn Jr. has been very impressive. That would be a huge lift to the team next year if he can lead-off for the Brewers.

[bucksman4]

Having said that, what is the market for Brady Clark's services going to look like this off-season?

[Riebes24]

The Pirates would probably trade Zach Duke for Clark in the offseason.

[fondybrewfan]

Now it is time for pulling my hair out. You know he is going to make this stressful. Just dont let it get to Pujols
