The coaching staff must be working on Billy's patience at the plate, because thats two AB's in the last two games where Billy's struck out w/o swinging at a single pitch.

[craigharmann]

Bill Hall says...I need my energy to make a spectacular play at short in the top of the 9th...I'm not going to take the bat off of my shoulder this time...besides, we're already winning!

[Lil Dummy]

Wise hasn't pitched in forever, they can't bring him in to protect a one run lead now. I hate to say this, but I'd go with DLR.

[undertow67]

Please Billy, Don't argue balls and strikes. I don't wan't to see Cirillo play SS.

[JoeH33]

Brady's on fire!

[wisconsinfan47]

I like that Brady is heating up...If he continues to, we won't need to worry as much about putting Hall or Weeks in center and can have Hall play SS consistently while JJ recovers.

[JoeH33]

Is it just me, or does Chad look like he's wearing lipstick in his GameDay photo?

[TheBwaz]

Chad looks more like he just took a hit of something herbal.

[davemakovec]

Brady Clark gets on base with a single.

 

He is tearing it up right now. I hope this means we have 2005 Brady on our hands.

[craigharmann]

Alright D-Bow...let's get this one over and done with and sweep these guys outta here!

[iluvlamp]

Turnbow has thrown 42 pitches the last 2 games though. I know he's a horse but why take him out yesterday for the love-child Shouse. To a degree I agree with both of you, but to not show confidence one day but do the next.....I just don't like it...my opinion is all

 

 

doesn't matter now

 

GET 'EM DBOW

[JoeH33]

Well this should be another fun 9th inning.

 

I think I've had enough drama this week though, how about a simple 1-2-3 inning for once.

[Ennder]

I'm not comfortable with Turnbow going out there after he pitched so much lately. I hope this one works out for us.

[Lil Dummy]

Gotta get the leadoff guy!!

[rluzinski]

86 pitches in 5 days... I just don't understand this....

[craigharmann]

1 down!

[Trowekamp]

I think Yost realizes he made a mistake yesterday and wants to show Turnbow he still believes in him..

[jloos19]

See Derrick, strikes=outs... 2 more!

[iluvlamp]

That's one.(after 3 balls phew!!)

Well our starting pitching is real thin, maybe we're trying to stretch him out.

[craigharmann]

Gameday shows that Victorino's out was to the track?

[Team Canada]

Turnbow is a horse, but I wish someone would go reclaim Wise from the Witness Protection Program.

[clancyphile]

D-Bow's struggling a little. Just get the save...

[jloos19]

2 down! Keep throwing strikes Derrick!

[craigharmann]

2 down!
