6/14/06 - Brewers (Villanueva) @ Reds (Ramirez) 11:35 am CST

[TheBwaz]

Sure, Chad struck out, and Jenks, and Hall

 

What if Damien is shut down? Who catches?

[homer]

Great outing for CV. Too bad he won't get the W.

[brewers19]

Villie gets pulled after owning the Reds for 6 innings and only 79 pitches? Why?

[adambr2]

This lineup owes Villy an apology. He deserved the W today.

 

I am a little surprised they did not bring him back in for the 7th, especially with only 79 pitches and the pitchers spot due up next.

Gotta be a set pitch count.

[tyguy20204]

Don't like Shouse pitching to right handers.

[PeaveyFury]

Jeebus. Go to the right-hander.

My thoughts exactly

[homer]

Maybe he was tired. He did give up a double and a walk in the sixth.

Miller is in a slump, otherwise I would have subbed him there for Moeller too.

[no19no1]

Why didn't CV come out for the 7th? Pitch count?

[adamb100]

The DP rules all.

[mls4]

Based on the splits, why is Shouse still in the game?

 

Edit: Oh never mind.

[brewers19]

God bless the double-play.

You could have PH with Hart/Cirillo etc. there and then subbed Miller in next inning. I guess in a game like this that could go to extra's though, you don't necessarily want to burn your bench like that.

[jloos19]

What a great turn by Hall and Weeks, that took a tricky hop.

[tyguy20204]

Yost is gonna get burned one of these times.

 

Shouse should not be pitching to certain batters.

[Voodoo Muppet]

Two rookie pitchers... the top two HR-hitting teams in the NL... Great American Ball Park...

 

I don't think this was the type of game that ESPN or any of us were expecting.

[TheBwaz]

Alright, fine, it is Damian. All I am saying is that we don't know if he told Ned he needed the day off. If he isn't good to go who catches?

 

Chad's a backup catcher, you get what you get. You want Osik back?

[adamb100]

I hate Freel, he stole a home run or at least bases from Rickie.

[TheBwaz]

Dang you Uke, don't tease me with calls like that!

[no19no1]

Freel's gonna hurt tomorrow.

[Voodoo Muppet]

Why not leave Gross in to play center and let the pitcher's spot be #2?

 

We could do another double switch to Cory Hart if we need to later...

[TeeJayh1980]

is mlb gameday down for anyone else? It just locked up for me and wont let me back into the game.
