Lineup per TH:

 

BREWERS

2B Craig Counsell

3B Casey McGehee

LF Ryan Braun

1B Prince Fielder

RF Corey Hart

CF Mike Cameron

SS JJ Hardy

C Jason Kendall

RHP Mike Burns

 

Third base is a revolving door.

Nice photo of Baker. May there be an opportunity to recreate the moment today. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

This is probably the last day game I can listen to at the library (before my workstation's moved), so make it a good one, Brewers.

[naivin]

If they can get it, I think this would be a big big win and series win for the Brewers.

[logan82]

Macha follows up a nice looking lineup with a questionable start of McGehee at 3B. I thought Gamel was supposed to be the starter at 3B now.

[razzzorsharp]

Cubs and Cards but give up runs right when CC doubles. Good news time.

[davemakovec]

That's a frustrating failure to score, right there. You can't give up too many chances like that.

[razzzorsharp]

Can Burns catch lightning in a bottle for 6 today?

Heard TH on the Dlist and Macha said that he started McGehee because RHers are actually hitting Baker better than LHers. Just be thankful it's not Bill Hall out there.

The only things I can think of is he is maybe more concerned with defense for the day game as hitting is tougher or else it's just giving Gamel the day game after night game off. It is also possible he is reacting to the pitcher being more effective against left handed batters than right (at least so far this year).

Well, Burns has a no-no through 3. Too bad the offense is asleep today.

[Schlitz001]

Scott Baker career splits:

 

vs. RHB .262/.293/.441

vs. LHB .280/.328/.429

You jinxed it!

 

 

EDIT: Did anyone notice that the guy in the press box gave that baseball to the older woman rather than the little boy? I kinda had to drop my jaw at that.

[sargennm]

Ugh, this isn;t going to end well, is it?

[pretendastronaut]

Ya it will, I smell triple play. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

It rarely ever does...

What day isn't the offense asleep right now? They have been a pathetic bunch of losers lately.

[brewdude15]

UGH! Came all the way back, just to lose him...please lets get a DP and at least one of those runs back next inning.

[brewdude15]

And I almost had a heart attack there.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Fortunate to get out of that with only 2.

 

Come on offense! Pick him up!

[crewcrazy]

Well that certainly could've been a lot worse. Nice job working out of it by Burns, with a little luck on that liner to Counsell.

[pretendastronaut]

Going through their best bats there, that could have been way worse. I'll take it.

[Brewtacular]

Thus far this has been one of the better starts for a pitcher over the last month.

That's a little harsh, isn't it? Considering the team put up 32 runs in the Cleveland series, just a week ago, I'd say it's just a funk they're in.

[brewdude15]

That was actually a great call by the first base ump. Props for getting the call right.

 

 

EDIT: Sorry guys for all the double posts...just a little amped up here. (not to mention it's a day game and the IGT isn't busy)
