6.1.06 Brewers (Bush) @ Pirates (Maholm) 11:35 AM CST

[Team Canada]

Figures that this happens after I dump Bush off my fantasy team.

 

Can you also dump any other Brewer pitchers you have?

[bjkrautk]

Hey guys, stop making even subtle hints, it makes me extremely nervous. And you know exactly what I'm talking about.

 

Isn't that, in and of itself, a subtle hint?

[happydays1950]

i am so sick of Carlos popping out and easy ground outs.

[brewers19]

I just dumped Davis after Monday's debacle, so you're in luck!

[davemakovec]

I've always been somewhat surprised at the ability of hitters, especially power hitters, to ground out softly to the catcher.

 

I mean, it's the catcher!

 

On-field delay? Please explain.

[Voodoo Muppet]

I too just dumped Davis. So look for him to throw a... uhhh... would I preemptively jinx his next start if I called for a you-know-what now?

[brewers19]

On-field delay? What's that mean?

[bjkrautk]

"On-field Delay" is listed on GameCast...

 

Rain?

Drunken Idiot?

 

(Anyone care to clarify?)

[steve267268]

i'm leaving right now for class. good luck 'crew, good luck Dave in pitching solid the rest of the way.. that's all we need.

This delay here sounds extremely suspicious. Stopping play because some padding fell off a railing? Give me a break

[jloos19]

Some piece of metal or something dumped onto the warning track, so they need to pick it all up.

[craigharmann]

Uke said something's up with the padding down the first base line.

[happydays1950]

a roving sign fell and broke into a million pieces. this is not fair to dave. ai bet they planed it.

Yeah, who cares if another player gets injured

I don't think calling a quality start for once from Doug would be asking too much, or give him a potential hex. I'd take 7 innings and 3 earned runs. Baby steps.

[honuswagner21]

Although listening to Uecker talk about how the ground crew deserves to take lunch and a siesta like everyone else is quite entertaining.

[Team Canada]

Well that's over. Ah well.

[cruiserx43]

It's called delaying the game in some hope that Bush's arm tightens up.

[craigharmann]

Perfect....delay the game, and then Burnitz hits a double....jeez.

[Pointer1VB]

I'm watching on TV and the announcers haven't said anything. The game is on now.

 

Crap, Burnitz double.

[jloos19]

You knew that was going to happen, that's bush league, no pun intended.

[mikevan1818]

Thats Bull....make Bush sit around while they pick stuff up and get him out of his grove. These pirates are suspicious.

[badgerfan.tgf]

So the Pirates plant something to cause a delay, leaving Bush to stand out in the sun throwing warmup pitches and the next batter gets the first hit of the game for Pittsburgh....can you say conspiracy???

well done gentlemen, well done. can't hold your water for 4 measly innings

[valpocrewsader]

More cheating by the Pirates. The ol' padding-off-the-rail 10-minute delay to kill the opposing pitcher's rhythm trick. And it leads to two hits. Or maybe they just needed another 10 minutes to set up the video camera in the bleachers.
