7/21/08 Brewers (McClung) at Cardinals (Pineiro): 6:05 CDT

[Trowekamp]

Gagne on the mound isn't any worse than Braun at the plate. Between the two of them, 10 minutes is added to the game.

Yes.. if I was pitching at Braun I would probably throw at him every other pitch after watching his Nomar routine.

[bucks2281]

Now, there's some $10 million pitching.

 

We're halfway home, boys.

[jhart05]

Gotta like that Yost at least had someone up in the pen that inning.

 

Nice job Gagne.

 

Still would like so see one or two more runs on the board for the good guys thou.

[moofnelson]

Unbelievable. Gagne looked awesome. Am I dreaming? First Mota, then Gagne? Is Joe Winkelass going to pitch the 8th?

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

mota and gagne throw scoreless innings...whats up with that

[sheethead]

I just thought to myself, its about time Mota and Gagne pitch scoreless innings. Who knew it would be in the same game, against the Cards no less.

[Trowekamp]

I am sure Riske is coming out for the 8th.. though personally I like Villy better as he seems a little meaner out there.

[TauPentaRei]

The way this game is going, Turnbow is going to get the save somehow

 

yuk yuk yuk. man, his only save of the year was electric.

if what's-his-face was sent down to the minors for throwing balls, can we promote Gagne for that outing? that was restaurant quality.

 

uh oh, NL. look what Eric found.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

hall with two hits off right handed pitching....amazing

[markedman5]

I think that is the best inning Gagne has thrown all year.

[Trowekamp]

Brewers with 12 hits and only 33% are for extra bases.. they are due to break out.

[trwi7]

Yes.. if I was pitching at Braun I would probably throw at him every other pitch after watching his Nomar routine.

 

And the best part of your plan is you still wouldn't have to worry about walking him. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[jhart05]

Good to see Billy go 2-4 this game.

 

Man, if he could get hot. Get a little bit of the 2006 Bill Hall back for the 2nd half.

[ELCABALLO45]

Hall just stole on Molina...

 

This game is so unrealistic

[trwi7]

hall with two hits off right handed pitching....amazing

And a stolen base off of a catcher who has thrown out over 50% of runners in his career.

[Trowekamp]

Now that is good humor right there.. a factually accurate to boot...

[moofnelson]

I think we need a run here to offset Pujols' lead off home run in the bottom of the 8th.

[jhart05]

Question:

[ecjimg]

Thats the 3rd time brian has said that the Cardinals won by 1 run yesterday. They won 9-5.

[TauPentaRei]

it's Yost - LaRussa!

 

Suicide squeeze time.

[LaprilOne]

Hart must hate that call.

[sheethead]

I don't see how Ankiel doesn't put that throw into the second deck.

[ELCABALLO45]
