i really like how this line up looks.. i'm assuming Brady is hitting 8 because Moeller is playing and Ned doesn't want to straight outs with the pitcher slot next?

Glad to see Prince up and Jenks down again.

I'm thinking we're in for a good game...especially after last night....sucks that it's NOT on FSN today....what more do you want on Father's Day? A couple of beers and baseball game...oh well...

[brewers255]

Happy Fathers day to everyone, and you can watch the game in spanish. Well if u know how to speak and understand spanish, which I dont.

[craigharmann]

My wife is in Mexico on a mission trip, and I went last year, but that's about as close to Spanish as I get....plus I'm in Sheboygan with Charter cable....no Spanish here...so I get Uke and Jim, while dinking on the computer all afternoon...works for me.

[craigharmann]

I'm thinking Bill Hall hits a walk off homer today....he did it on Mother's Day, why not on Father's Day?

[IslandsAC]

We don't get the Mundo up in Neenah either, but something tells me that the 2 years of spanish I took would only prepare me for understanding only about 3% of the words anyway.

I would take that, but I'm thinking its gonna be Cecil's son today.

[craigharmann]

I'll take a win, no matter what fashion

[wisconsinfan47]

Closed roof today...Hopefully that will cut down on some of the homers that Jackson tends to give up.

[craigharmann]

I think part of the 4 homers was being in the GABP....but, yeah, roof closed should help today.

[Cdiddy34]

imagine if Prince did hit it and Brainerd was still working for FSN and the game was on TV.

That could have been epic.

Of course, the game isn't on FSN and even if it was Brainerd wouldn't be working but you can still dream.

[Lil Dummy]

25 pitches is a lot, but good to see Jackson work out of a minor jam there. The bullpen is well-rested, which is good, they'll be needed today. Hopefully to protect a lead.

[Ennder]

I'm really not a fan of Koskie batting 2nd. Call me old fashion but I prefer someone who can run a bit better in that slot to cut down on the DP's a bit before the heart of the order is up.

 

Whats up with Lee stealing 2nd, I thought he was only allowed to steal 3rd~.

[DHonks]

truly a phantom tag there to get Koskie. I think Belliard never came within 6" of tagging him. I wonder if the Lee call was a makeup call of sorts

[jason21nl]

i agree...i don't like koskie batting 2nd at all.....

 

prior is getting rocked in the cubs game

[wisconsinfan47]

Lee and Fielder with the successful double steal...I love it.

[DHonks]

way to catch them napping boys. Fielder's steal just put me in a tie in that category in a fantasy league!

[Point Beer Is Best]

A double steal with Lee and Fielder? Guess it's a good idea when nobody would possibly expect it. Wish I could see it.

[craigharmann]

I honestly would rather have Brady bat 2nd than Koskie...Koskie is a better 5th or 6th place hitter....Brady can make contact and gets on base well.

[brewers255]

PO by hall. End of inning.

[jason21nl]

prior with hr number 3 given up in the 1st

[craigharmann]

It's so nice to see the Chubbies losing....

[wisconsinfan47]

Man oh man, Prior has given up 3 homers in the first and Detroit leads 6-0.
