For those of you not local enough to listen to WTMJ via traditional radio, and if you've purchased any sort of online MLB.com audio subscription, here's your link for web audio.

Box score will be here

We'll try and identify a secret Gameday stash if there is one.

[And That]

I find it sad and amusing that our first game of the spring, our first baseball of 2010, our first foray into battle... is being started by Jeff Suppan.

Your super-secret Gameday link

[brewerfan82]

YES! First must win game of the year!

[Invader3K]

Gamel has apparently been scratched from the lineup and replaced with Casey McGehee.

[Opey76]

Welcome to the second best day of the year behind Opening Day and right in front of pitchers and catchers reporting.

Gamel has apparently been scratched from the lineup and replaced with Casey McGehee.

Any reason given?

[Invader3K]

Not that I've seen. Haudricourt said he hadn't heard a reason as yet.

[TooLiveBrew]

I sure hope it's not related to Macha's opinion that Gamel is a "flake"

[And That]

Gamel has a vaguely-described foot problem coming in to camp that had been "resolved" according to Macha... perhaps whatever the foot problem was, it flared back up.

[wibadgers23]

Maybe I missed something, but why isn't Braun and Escobar in the line-up?

[jimmyjeromehardy7]

Escobar is having root canal done and Braun is being eased into game action.

[trwi7]

Gamel has a minor right shoulder tweak.

Anyone trying to listen in Madison? It doesn't appear to be on 1070 or 1310 and online is not an option for me. Boo.

[BoKnowsBall]

Anybody else having trouble with the WTMJ feed from gameday audio? I get the SF one but nothing from the WTMJ one.

It's not on 1310 or 1070. The first game they are broadcasting is Saturday on 1310. I'm listening on my iphone in At Bat 2010, but I can't get a WTMJ feed. No sound on that feed. Listening to the San Fran feed right now.

No Brewers audio on MLB at Bat app either for WTMJ.

Same with me, some engineer at TMJ probably needs to flick a switch or something -- stuck with the Giants' webcast for now. Just keep trying every so often, someone let us know when TMJ is available via the MLB audio link, thanks.

 

[PeteP]

Not a good start for the 2010 small ball experiment..

[Mr QL]

BEAN EM BACK

[I Heart Brewers]

I'm listening via iPhone app and also cannot get the WTMJ feed.

[Kevbo74]

Lucky Milwaukeeans... I have to listen to the MLB broadcast, which is NOT Bob Uecker.

I woke up today looking forward to hearing him. Denied. What a drag.

It'll work. Still has that "it's baseball season" feeling.

 

Prince Fielder got beaned!!!

[sheethead]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I mean come on, is baseball really this petty? Now I want payback!

[Mass Haas]

Prince Fielder got beaned!!!

A Barry Zito pitch to the hip isn't a beaning, however. It's a HBP. The home plate celebration feud is hopefully over now.
