2010-04-14 Brewers (Bush) at Cubs (Wells), 1:20 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 7-6]

[jjkoestler]

Stay classy Chicago. That's a brutal move by Lou.

"Fukudome with a good arm settles under it and that is your inning."

 

Brian had no idea how many outs there were.

[owbc]

I would make a joke about Cubs fans, but I'm sure that Suppan pitching at Miller Park is going to be even uglier.

[YoGasKpose]

Can't say he doesn't deserve it. My Dad, a (tolerable, die hard) Cubs fan refuses to say his name. Just calls him "our left fielder." As long as he helps out the Crew, it's okay by me.

[Gobias Industries]

Wow they are just brutal to him.

You think Milwaukee would be any different? He's been brutal for awhile now.

 

Hall and Weeks were booed for about a week straight a couple of summers ago.

Awesome, nice catch. I didn't notice that.

[Schlitz001]

I would have rather saved Narveson for tomorrow.

[Oldcity]

Narveson getting squeezed. Danger zone here...

[pitchleague]

Tyler Colvin on deck. Why am I sensing an AB like Fukudome had on Opening Day a couple of years ago to tie the game?

 

Gosh, I hope I'm wrong. We don't need another Cub folk hero.

[trwi7]

I would have rather saved Narveson for tomorrow.

Probably saving Parra for tomorrow. Uh oh. Come on Narvy.

 

I just went all Ned Yost there. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Bush at 85 pitches. Two righties starting the inning. Why Narveson here?

[BrewerAddiction]

Interesting that Narveson is in now. Wonder what happens in our bullpen with Suppan being activated.

[bacon06]

So is Macha taking the Spring Training approach and piggybacking Suppan's starts with Parra? Just ask Soup to pitch the first 3 and Parra the next 3?

[brains and braun]

Wow they are just brutal to him.

Hall and Weeks were booed for about a week straight a couple of summers ago.

Yeah, but as was mentioned earlier, Soriano isn't going anywhere. Approximately how much money would the Cubs have to throw in to make a trade palatable? Not like he's going to be improving his fielding much either.

But, you're probably right. I don't think Brewers fans would be any better.

[Oldcity]

Could really use a strikeout here.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Escobar has got to come up with that. ARGH.

 

Ok.. time for that double play ball.

[sargennm]

Is there a more cliche storyline that Cubs-Brewers at Wriggly?

[Oldcity]

Boy they're getting squeezed this inning. Should be 0-2 on A-ram.

[sheethead]

Bush at 85 pitches.

 

Gameday had Bush at 77 pitches. Either way, I'm sure Macha thought it would be a good time to get his bullpen some work seeing how he likely won't need them tomorrow (blue text not necessary).

[wOOgiE22]

Whew, that was too close for comfort! Now let's get some runs

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Again, Zaun setting up inside on power hitters with 2 strikes comes up. Why the hell does he insist on doing that?

[Oldcity]

Sweet. Let's add to the lead now.

[BrewCrewForever]

Bush at only 77 pitches? Why on earth would you pull him?

[topper09er]

Good to the last drop

[davemakovec]

I was also wondering why he pulled Dave Bush. He hadn't even been all the way through the lineup a third time.
