4/26/06 Braves (Sosa) @ Brewers (Sheets), 12:05 PM CST

Nuts. I would have liked to see Sheets go another inning or maybe two.

 

I also think that Bill Hall is a poor choice of pinch-hitter.

 

Edit: three-pitch K. Ben Sheets can strike out on three pitches, too, Ned, shoulda left him in http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Now we trust to our bullpen to hold 'em. Throw a couple good innings, boys, this one's going well!

[Ralph Wiggum]

with the way the pen has looked lately, I would have let ben bat there.

[clancyphile]

C'mon, Hall... get some more insurance...

agreed

[jloos19]

Hall is definitely the worst pinch-hitter I have ever seen.

[clancyphile]

Kolb hasn't allowed a run yet.

You have a chance for a big inning. You almost have to pinch hit in that situation.

[adambr2]

It said a coach for the Braves was ejected. Anyone know why?

[JoeH33]

Well Kolb should be pretty amped here, getting a chance to prove to Atl that he really can pitch.

[adambr2]

Kolb hurt the Braves last year...can he hurt them again? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Ennder]

He was jawing at the umpires after LaRoche was called out at 3B and got ejected.

 

 

With Sheets coming off the injury and being such a terrible hitter I don't mind them pinch hitting for him there.

[dixieflatline]

You MUST pinch hit there. Ben is just terrible with the bat and a hit could basically ice the game. How much better is Ben at 92 pitches than Kolb fresh from the pen anyway? It isn't like Ben was going to go more than one more inning at the most.

[markwitx]

94mph pitch for kolb.

[mastershake76]

Man, I hate how whenever anything remotely out of the ordinary happens, the SportsLine "live" gamecenter falls behind by about 10 minutes while they figure out what to do. It's still stuck on a 2-1 count to Moeller. Anyone know of a better online game summary than sportsline?

[pitchleague]

at least Sheets, with his 6 innings, has now gone over the 1000 IP mark for his career. (Press Pass paying off dividends)

[Ralph Wiggum]

Wow...I wonder what it's like to have a young catcher who can hit? I'll have to ask Bobby Cox next time I see him.

I'd say MLB.com's Gameday is the best followed by ESPN's Gamecast.

[milwaukeesportsfan]

Go to MLB.com and click on gameday. It's the best, hands down.

 

Double play. There's the ground baller shot caller Dan Kolb that we all know and love.

[markwitx]

doubleplay

[clancyphile]

A DP would be nice...

 

EDIT: And Danny gets it.

[jloos19]

6-4-3!! With no errors!!

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

nice job by kolb..who is next wise ?

[markwitx]

great inning for dan.

[JoeH33]

Nice 9 pitch inning there for Danny!

[jloos19]

That's the Dan Kolb we know and love.
