2009-05-01 Diamondbacks (Garland) at Brewers (Parra): 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-2]

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Where is everyone?

[mtrebs]

They must all be at the game. Wasn't this game supposed to be on FSN-HD? Charter is showing the color bars on FSN-HD instead.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Parra has a good change going tonight. Loose strike zone too.

 

He's pitching with more confidence...against the right team too. Not a lot of plate discipline from the D-Backs.

 

Garland has been sharp too...really jamming our guys with the fastball. Really good location. We need to get to that bullpen.

[jeffy]

Unless they are at the ballpark, they are missing a nice performance by Parra.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Let's see if he can get out of this one.

 

Could really use a win tonight with Haren going tomorrow.

[cnycerveceros]

Wow, quiet IGT.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

We're lost without Woogie.

 

C'mon Manny...Big Boy time here.

[cnycerveceros]

All things considered, pretty good outcome.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Phew...Young bailed Manny out there. Chased a couple bad pitches that Upton was able to lay off of.

Whoever decided to pitch around Mark "I struck out 1,000 times last year" Reynolds is complete moron. Seriously, I expect more intelligent decisions than that.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Is that a Billy Jo Robideaux photo?

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

There's the break we needed.

[cnycerveceros]

there's a break.

[cnycerveceros]

Yep, it's Robideaux

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

That had to be the best season of AA ball any human being ever had in that El Paso bandbox.

 

C'mon Corey...get him over.

[jeffy]

Getting some breaks this inning, 2 misplays and a strike 3 that wasn't called.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

That will work too.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Garland has these guys baffled tonight. The guy is dealing.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Garland only at 91 pitches...not a good sign.

You know, Bill and Brian said that, but I think he was actually trying to get him out, he just couldn't locate.

I don't know about that. He had two Ks in the previous five innings (one against the pitcher), which leads me to believe (not watching) that everybody had been getting the bat on the ball, and that this was just an epic failure of hitting.

 

I could be wrong, though.

[Ennder]

Braun swung at a bad pitch to strike out, Cameron struck out looking on a marginal pitch but one you have to swing at. Fielder just swung through a pitch. Garland is locating decently but he is never really 'dealing'. He doesn't have good enough stuff to deal~.

[RoseBowlMtg]

Where are the anti Counsell's after our studs K,K, and I will give Cameron a break but he K'd!

[TheCrew07]

Manny and his big innings... the 6th could of have been worse... It would be different it he was *just* missing, but most of those pitches weren't even close. I have thing for lefties being left handed myself, and he's so talented, but when he gets wild it's maddening. I'm trying to think of another player I rooted for so hard for but pissed me off so much and I'm coming up empty. The closest player in any sport was probably Nick Davis, the WR/KR for the Badgers years ago.

 

edit. I can't be the only one who's intimidated by setting up an IGT?

[RoseBowlMtg]

was probably Nick Davis, the WR/KR for the Badgers years ago.
