07/25/2006 Pirates (Snell) @ Brewers (Sheets) 7:05 CST

[Bruce Ciskie]

OK. You have these things you carry to the plate with you.

 

SWING THEM AT THE BASEBALL!!

 

(Nothing I hate more than when a veteran gets caught looking. It's even worse when it happens with RISP and two out. No excuse, Damian. That's just bad.)

[iluvlamp]

These Shop the Pig commercials remind me that I do have a gun.

[cruiserx43]

At least the Brewers gave Sheets a run tonight. Clemens is down 1-0 late in the game. How many times has that happened since he joined the Astros? 15 times?

 

I hope it happens 15 more times, because it's the Astros.

[bucksman4]

Good ol Brewers with RISP. That's what separates the contenders from the pretenders. Why does it seem like the Cards always get in the run when its on second? Maybe its just my imagination.

[cruiserx43]

Well you certainly have to be happy with what you got from Sheets tonight.

Well, I hope it doesn't happen tonight, because they're playing the Reds.

[iluvlamp]

Anyone got Bennies line?

 

 

nevermind

[crewcrazy]

No decision for Sheets.

 

Just like old times.

[iluvlamp]

Here goes the game

[cruiserx43]

Self destruction, what's new?

[adamb100]

uh oh...

[adambr2]

And that kind of crap, right there, is why we lose most of our games.

[Bruce Ciskie]

So is Dave Bush a starter or a reliever?

 

And before you give me the "It's his day to throw" crap, when was the last time you saw a real team pull this garbage with one of their starting pitchers?

 

(Yes, I know Oswalt pitched in relief for Houston recently. But that was before Houston took four days off for the All-Star break.)

[adamb100]

3-1...

[bucksman4]

Don't worry about it. Barnwell leads off the next inning. We can spot em a few with his big stick providing some insurance at the end.

[tyguy20204]

typical brewers.

[cruiserx43]

Well, I hope it doesn't happen tonight, because they're playing the Reds.

 

I do because the Astros only trail us by a half game.

[iluvlamp]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Yost is out in space when it comes to pitching decisions. Terrible.

[fondybrewfan]

Well that was awesome

[AJ Love]

Please name another MLB Manager who brings in a Starting pitcher out of the bullpen on 3 days rest? This is awful managing.

The Brewers did it with Jamie Navarro in the early '90's just before he blew out his arm and lost all effectiveness for the rest of his career.

[COOOOP]

Well, I thought that Bush was going to give up a first pitch home run, so I was wrong, but that doesn't quite make me happy.

[Mass Haas]

What are you saving Rick Helling for? You've got Jeremi for long relief.

 

Unbelievable.

[MillerBombers]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Yost is out in space when it comes to pitching decisions. Terrible.

 

 

Yeh well I don't think our pitchers decisions have been very good lately either.

[fondybrewfan]

Hey we still have 6 more outs
