Wednesday day game. Feels weird.

[hawing]

Because a two-game series bordered by two off days wasn't weird enough. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Gobias Industries]

I hope we can actually get to Wainwright for a change.

[BrewCrewForever]

Given our past history against Wainwright, I would be very shocked if we won this game. Maybe we squeek out a couple runs and Wolf pitches his best game of the season. I can hope, right?

[Mike2k33]

I need something to improve my mood. Help me out here, Crew.

[Gobias Industries]

At least the error didn't come back to get the Crew there. Just terrible fundamentals from Prince there. I can't think of another 1b in the league who doesn't make that play.

[hawing]

Those of you in the chat room (or reportedly so) might want to count your blessings. I'm stuck in the "wrong password" loop. For now I'll take this as a sign that the baseball gods want me to get some non-Brewers work done. Thanks, gods.

[Gobias Industries]

That second pitch to Weeks was way outside. Goodnight if he gets that call.

[Gobias Industries]

Wainwright is unbelievable. At least he has 61 pitches thru 4.

[topper09er]

Hit to the pitcher, did Wainwright try to get Cain at the plate?

[logan82]

That should have been an error. Wainwright tried to scoop it to Molina and whiffed.

[hawing]

Too classy for an error?

[RightFieldCoder]

For those of us "watching" on Gameday, did Holliday play the Weeks single off his cup?

[trwi7]

Cain is amazing.

[BrewCrewForever]

See Kenny, Cain can hit RHP.

 

My man crush on Cain is growing.

[azcheesehead]

Anyone notice how Cain almost caught Casey at 3rd?

 

Side-note: I LOVE reading the Cardinals fan forum on days like today!

The spot they gave it on gameday doesn't tell where it bounced. It bounced probably 15 feet on the grass and rolled to Holliday.

[trwi7]

"Where's Ken Macha?"

 

- Bill

 

I believe the answer is sleeping. And yes, that hit his bat.

[crewcrazy]

That pitch pretty clearly hit the bat, and not Ryan. Doesn't stop him from acting like it hit, him, though. Don't know how the ump could've missed that, the sound was so obvious.

[brewmann04]

Trevor Time

[pebadger]

Sure seems from all the evidence we have that it hit the bat, but it is a bit odd that of the two guys closest to the play plus Wolf nobody even made a complaint. Usually I trust the people closest to the play over the limited views we get from teh cameras, but this is one of those rare occasions in which I think they all just missed what happened.

[jhart05]

It had to hit him. Classy ball players like the Cards don't fake getting hit by the pitch. That wouldn't be respecting the game.

[trwi7]

That pitch pretty clearly hit the bat, and not Ryan.

Not a classy move by Ryan.

 

I'm glad Brian or anybody finally mentioned the Cardinals attendance. You always see them with paid attendances of 40,000+ but I've never seen that stadium full. There are always at least 10,000 seats available when I see them play.

[GB12]

Wow completely missed the first 8 and a half innings. A day game on a Wednesday? What the heck
