2009-07-22 Brewers (Suppan) at Pittsburgh (Maholm) : 11:35 AM CT [Brewers lose, 8-7]

[markedman5]

Nice work Seth............I thought 7 runs might be enough........wishful thinking obviously.

[brewmann04]

Geez is there any one other than Mark Defelice or Setter that can hold a lead until we get to Hoff.

[markedman5]

Coffey has been pretty good as of late.

It was a two run lead after four and a half to be fair.

 

I'm not happy with McClung's performances the last few weeks, believe me, but the way the balls have been jumping today I was going to be surprised if they didn't score at least one more.

 

And at the least, in a slugfest I feel better with our guys than theirs.

[brewmann04]

MY apolgies i forgot totally about Coffey and maybe we do need another arm in the pen for that stretch Run.

And with that said, Joel Hanrahan, he of the 7.41 ERA, makes the top of our lineup look pretty silly.

 

Man...the way it's going today, will we get to the point today where we're saying, "Just get to Billy Hall, just get to Billy Hall..."? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

I check the score after letting my puppy out 7-5. I get back to the office: 7-7. Now I'm about to leave for what's sure to be a very Suppan-y meeting. Hopefully that will turn the tide again.

Uecker just yelled from the broadcast booth that "Adam is gone", just to let the Pirate fans in attendance know. What a thoughtful thing for him to do.

[PrinceFielder28]

Now Coffey is falling apart

[SeriesFinale]

Well, I don't like where this is headed at all.

 

Although if they're gonna lose this one, I'd rather they do it in the 7th than 8th, and certainly more than 9th or extras.

[bklynbrewcrew]

Im not gonna kill Coffey if he gives it up here. Due to our awful starting pitching Coffey has been abused and is gonna tire out sooner or later.

[pretendastronaut]

I would hope you wouldn't kill any of our pitchers. Or anybody I suppose.

 

But that's just me.

[bklynbrewcrew]

Obviously I meant verbally but good one. Nice job by Coffey getting out of the inning.

[brewmann04]

well this it what this year brewers baseball is all about Frustrating !

[cheesecup22]

nice DP.. got to see that on the live-look in on mlb.com

[topper09er]

sweet

[pretendastronaut]

Well that ended fast. 1 pitch, inning over.

[pitchleague]

nice job to get out of that jam.

 

I laughed pretty good when Uecker yelled out the press box window to the fans below. Good stuff.

[SeriesFinale]

Huge.

 

Second time a big ol ginger has gotten out a jam for the Crew today. Let's capitalize on this fellas.

[topper09er]

nice DP.. got to see that on the live-look in on mlb.com

What is that????

[PrinceFielder28]

come on let's get some runs and put away this game.

[dlk9s]

That jam Coffey got into was not really the result of bad pitching, as it may have looked just based on the result. The single was more a case of good hitting rather than a bad pitch. There was the walk, which isn't good, but it wasn't like Coffey was missing by a lot. Then there was a bunt, an IBB, and a DP.

[SeriesFinale]

The offense has looked terrible (again) since that 5-run outburst

 

Getting late.

[EAsports28]

I really wish this game was televised... great DP from Coffey though, that's a big momentum swing.
