Hopefully we'll see Gamel at 3B today, otherwise we may want to hit Yo 7th.

 

Lets hit the reset button and get back on the winning track. I wonder if we'll wear the red hat with the blue alternates and the white pants to somewhat distinguish ourselves from the Cardinals. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I have to say that I like last year's Patriot model better than this year's, but maybe because it's always weird seeing them wearing red hats with a blue color scheme. I think baseball would be better off letting teams keep the color of their caps, but modifying the logos with the stars and stripes like they've been doing. I've wanted the blue stars and stripes model since seeing it last year, but didn't feel like shelling out the $35 for it.

 

Just keep doing what you've been doing against the Cards, guys.

[Patrick425]

You've gotta be kidding. They are going to wear red hats? Versus the Cards? That's just not right.

[PrinceEatMeat]

These hats look goofy. Blue looked better, because it is a more neutral color. Glad to see Gamel in there today. Hopefully, he'll be in there the entire series.

[jordanmuehl]

Wow. The red hats with our white uniforms looks downright bad. I originally thought the all-red hat looked sharp, but it does not go well with our uniform at all. I guess the only plus that could come from it would be that it is seemingly a major distraction to the other team.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yovani's pitch count is riding up already. 22 first-inning pitches.

[bucks2281]

Carpenter looks very sharp thus far.

[PrinceEatMeat]

It seems to me that Yovani is trying to stay away from his curveball today. I wonder why?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Carpenter's curveball is just nasty today. Not a good sign.

[pretendastronaut]

CBS' Game Center says it's "Refreshingly cool" today at Miller Park. Must be because the Crew's got the fans running.

 

*rimshot*

[PrinceEatMeat]

Carpenter: 32 pitches, 5 K's in 3 innings.

[wibadgers23]

Carpenter looks unhittable right now and with the way our offense has been going lately, it doesn't look good at all. But the good news is that Yo has been pretty good too.

[crewcrazy]

Good old-fashioned pitching duel today. This one might be done by 3. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[PrinceEatMeat]

Gallardo certainly isn't letting himself get overshadowed today. His fastball is spot on, and topping out at 96 mph.

[PrinceEatMeat]

I think our best bet is to start taking pitches and try to drive Carpenter out early. He's on a pitch count of 80-90.

[pretendastronaut]

Casey was green lighted on 3-0?

[bucks2281]

I thought it was 3-1.

[dlk9s]

I think the world should know that Carpenter has a PERFECT GAME going right now.

[pretendastronaut]

I thought it was 3-1.

 

Maybe Game Center had it wrong then. It was 3-0 on there.

[crewcrazy]

Every time there's a rocket up the middle at Yo I hold my breath. I love that he's nabbing those, though. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

[razzzorsharp]

The last game I have watched (Thankfully) was the win over the Astors to end the series but it seems like this offense is night and day compared to that one for some reason.

[crewcrazy]

This game could get really interesting in an inning or two if things keep going the way they've been going for both teams.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yeah it was a 3-1 count.
