I say we boycott the Brewer's IGT tonight and put the Brewers in "timeout," in hopes that they begin to try and turn it around tonight. I know

it's early in the season....but this can be BF.net's way of dying their hair black...

[mls4]

By the way, with Fielder's 2 HBP last night, he is 9th in Brewer history:

 

Jenkins 95

Weeks 62

Vina 58

Gantner 52

Brady Clark 50

Yount 48

Burnitz 46

Cirillo 41

Fielder 40

Jaha 38

Will the game have a chance at being postponed tonight for rain? I am not able to check the weather right now. Thanks!

 

Go Brewers! Brauns heating up, I expect a 2+ hit game tonight for him!

[TSack27]

I'm no obsessedwithbrewcrew when it comes to following weather predications, so the best I can give you is from the hour-by-hour weather.com breakdown for Citizen Bank Ballpark area at ranges from 15%-20% chance of precipitation.

 

 

And I'm not ready to boycott this team. So maybe if wanting to jump on the jet black bandwagon, how about everything in bold black print tonight?

[bucks2281]

I'll be monitoring this game via Gameday on my phone, undoubtedly the single most excruciating way of following a game. Let's hope the Brewers give themselves the chance of winning the series tonight because we're getting awfully close to a Pink Night.

[mls4]

This weather outlook gives a 40% chance of rain.

Dear Loop-

Please do not give Ryan Howard anything to hit tonight as he is 4-5 career off you with all 4 being HR's.

Thanks - GH

[wOOgiE22]

I see that Macha moved JJ to the 6th hole while moving Cam up to the 5 spot. We will see how this works tonight as Cam has been hitting the ball decently while JJ has been struggling. Hopefully this will allow Prince to see more pitches to hit.

[GormanHarvey]

Hopefully it does the trick! Cam is 2-4 lifetime off Blanton with both hits being HR's

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Win it for...

[phxMILWfan]

I think it's a good move to switch Cam and JJ, let's just hope JJ is ok with it and doesn't let it bother him.

[GormanHarvey]

Man, I hope that wasn't a sign of things to come tonight. Rickie scalded that ball

[Mr QL]

Corey. come on man....

[GormanHarvey]

And the hits just keep coming.. C'mon Corey! Be alert

[sheethead]

Keep on generating new ways to fail.

[billyhallfan]

I don't see this howard AB ending well, come on Braden!

[billyhallfan]

yes, just what the doctor ordered!

[Unstable]

Textbook Howard there. The key pitch was #2, when he swung at Ball 2.

[GormanHarvey]

I have nothing good to say about the team right now, so I will say "yes! The first Piggly Wiggly Tailgate Tip of the season!"

[phxMILWfan]

BA wondering why they time players in a 60 yard dash... My guess would be that it's 60 yards to go from 1st to 3rd. Any other opinions on that?

[pretendastronaut]

Gameday says Blanton loves to face a Four Seam Fastball and he hates to face a Four Seam Fastball. Joe Blanton is a complex man.

[sheethead]

Braden Looper is a professional major league pitcher. Manny Parra, please watch and learn from Braden Looper.

[GormanHarvey]

Rickie has laced two balls tonight with nothing to show for it
