Stop throwing meatballs!

 

 

But they're so yummy

[hawing]

They do look tasty, but that doesn't mean they belong in a Milwaukee pitcher's arsenal.

[crewcrazy]

Rickie Weeks with a new single season career high for HR...good to see him put together the kind of year we always thought he would. Get a couple more runs this inning and perhaps they're still in this game?

[thablingster]

They seem to be the main course instead of a side dish for a select few of our pitchers. As Uecker would say, a couple granny's and we're right back in this one (in the lead, even!).

"Mini Rally" Time

Please start Cain. Gomez is just horrible.

[crossface21]

I'm just hoping when they activate Yo, that Gomez is the one to AAA, not Cain. Lets see what the kid can do.

[GB12]

Can Gomez be sent to AAA yet? If he can I'd absolutely be up for that.

[greendaler]

Gomez has to be benched, fined or demoted for the lack of hustle on that DP ball.Macha wake-up.

[viaarete]

I never, ever saw that double-play from Gomez coming [/blue]

[Funketown]

As far as I'm concerned, Gomez can be on the next flight to Nashville. Better yet, he can be on the next Greyhound.

[GB12]

Well damn, if were going to get a warning I would have at least liked to have hit him.

And Gomez gets pulled. Cain in.

[BrewCrewForever]

Well damn, if were going to get a warning I would have at least liked to have hit him.

Parra can't even handle that job.

[hawing]

Well, Cain's in on the double switch.

 

Really tired of the siren they play at Turner Field (after Braves runs?). And for the record, I was also not a fan of the siren Prince has occasionally used as a walkup sound-effect.

[Mr QL]

hit em again

Retribution feels so good when you're down 6.

[BrewCrewForever]

This mental midget theme is ridiculous. Oh my god, Manny Parra failed to pitch a good game, he lacks brains!

 

This is by far not the only time this staff has thrown a meatball on an 0-2 count this season and gotten punished for it.

Manny does it more than anyone. And he seems to most of the time have no clue as to what is going on.

[BrewCrewForever]

The only reason I am continuing to watch this game is because Cain came in on the double switch. Other than that, not much good going on.

 

Edit: Also to see if Weeks can get a 3 HR game.

[GB12]

Call me crazy, but when Kottaras had to change his glove mid at bat I knew it would mess with Manny's head. The kid is fragile.

[brewmann04]

Please enough of Parra and Gomez Potential means nothing if you can"t produce

[trwi7]

CAIN! Making the Gomez trade dumber every day.

 

First major league hit is in his home state. Awesome.

[BrewCrewForever]

Congrats to Lorenzo, put another nice swing on the ball. Hopefully he can get a start tomorrow or very soon.

[jason21nl]

Cain has already hit two balls harder than Gomez has all year.

[stalton]

Great Job "Livin' the Vida" LoCa. Let's hope thats the first hit of many hits here for the Brewers
