Bring it, Carlos! Or at least keep things in check.

Congrats, Ryan! 200 hits and a long home run in the first. Gotta like that kid!

 

edit: by the way, really sucks to not get to see this game (stupid FOX laws) but at least Uecker comes in loud and clear on MLB audio.

Fixed that for you. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Man, would it be nice to see something productive off Mat the Bat, right about now.

 

Edit: I'll take an errant throw, even if the E is misplaced.

[hawing]

Funny, I don't feel any more comfortable at the prospect of Weathers taking over than Bob sounded enthusiastic about it.

David, you can feel free to prove me wrong.

[pitchleague]

this game has been quite sloppy from both teams ends of the barrel.

 

I wonder if this Pagnozzi guy doing the catching late in the game is the son of Tom Pagnozzi, former Cardinals catcher from the late 80s-early 90s.

It's his uncle.

[hawing]

I already don't like him. Or Matt Holliday.

 

Edit: Is Prince OK? Uecker said he hit his head.

[WisconsinSportsRule]

Did it look like Prince was able to get his leg down before the tag. I thought he looked safe after replay, but I guess that was bang bang call.

I didn't see it, but I'm very pleased the Brewers won. And that they beat STL.

[Jimbo]

"W" !

[Invader3K]

I get the feeling with Suppan starting tomorrow that a sweep may be hard to come by. Good job playing hard against STL, though, Crew.

They also denied them home field advantage in the playoffs.

Yep, Bob mentioned that in the post-game and asked for some Kleenex in his wonderful deadpan style. Thumbs up, Ueck.

Nice win. Now Jeff, leave us with a taste greater then puke tomorrow.
