How about Stetter in the 9th?

Let's get a couple insurance runs here. Last night went from Hell's Bells to hell in a handbasket in no time... and I would like to avoid that again.

 

Nice start Prince!

Jeez, I said I made the comment out of frustration. And now I'm just getting ripped from multiple people.

Don't sweat it BrewCrew! It for reasons such as this that many people don't participate in the IGT anymore...

I'm leaning that way.

As much as it should happen it won't... Stetter should come in to face Loney but he won't... Most big league managers just don't have the guts to do it when they have a "closer"...

[hurricanecrush]

Hardy! YES!!!

Now if we can get Hardy in here we better see Stetter facing Loney in the 9th!!!!

Can Stetter get warmed up that fast?

[jvrocksaz]

Great job Bullpen!!! Thank you!!!

[hurricanecrush]

Nice game boys. We've got a shot with Yo going tomorrow.

Good effort all around. It would have been nicer yet to maintain the shutout, but considering how rare that's been for Brewers pitching this year, I'm satisfied with Burns' outing.

 

Keep up the good work on Sunday, Brewers, and end the so-called first half on a brighter note.

Worst case is a winning record and 2d place into the break. Best case is a game out and even in the loss column.

Mike Burns, man of mystery

 

Nice pen work tonight all around, too. Loved seeing Coffey getting pumped up at the end of the 8th...he knows these are big games

 

That said, I echo the sentiments above: let's get it tomorrow--7 or 8 strong from Yo and a huge rebound day for Braunie...and Hart--and end this half on a high. It's been a mostly crummy homestand but winning a series against the league leaders that saw their aces on the mound would be a nice boost to take into the second-half charge.

Actually, since the Cards and Cubs play a DH tomorrow, the Crew could be 1/2 game out if the Cubs were to sweep the double dip.

I was a bit worried about the pen after the amount of innings they've had to cover the past couple days (and how they responded to that challenge), but Coffey was excellent, McClung was huge in sucking up a couple innings, and Trevor bounced back nicely from a rough outing last night. Hopefully Yo can work deep into the game tomorrow and the bullpen can get an extra day of rest during the break.

[sdcheezhd]

Right, did not know about the DH. Although worst case is tied in GBs for 2d, percentage points behind.
