2011-04-18 Brewers at Phillies - [Brewers win, 6-3, 12 innings; Marcum and Kintzler post-game audio at tail end of thread]

[BrewCrewForever]

Shouldn't Lucroy really bat 6th in this line-up? Or am I just a homer because I've always liked him?

No. He should be batting 2nd.

I actually would not mind that. Better than Gomez. Lucroy has been at least making contact so far this season and can take a walk.

[BrewCrewForever]

When Morgan is healthy and Hart is off DL I hope Morgan bats 2nd and Hart bats 6th. Should solve a lot of these problems.

[chickinbrickin]

do we have the worst 2, 6 and 7 hitters in the game?

and i agree with the above.. without hart, lucroy should hit 2. or if morgan plays, can weeks hit 2?

YES

 

R. Weeks 2b .281

C. Gomez cf .208

R. Braun lf .352

P. Fielder 1b .310

C. McGehee 3b .281

Y. Betancourt ss .200

M. Kotsay rf .231

J. Lucroy c 2 .312

S. Marcum .143

Prince has had some crappy at bats tonight

[umphrey]

stop waving at the outside stuff Prince...that is where everything is going to be especially with RISP

[GormanHarvey]

Joe Blanton owns Prince Fielder

[trwi7]

Prince has had some crappy at bats tonight

He's had some crappy at bats for a few days now.

 

[Funketown]

After two full seasons in the majors, ESPN's announcer is still referring to him as "Mc-Ghee-Hee" (where Ghee is like the Indian clarified butter).

Shaun Marcum is gritty...in the best possible way

[PrinceEatMeat]

Marcum has been great, aside from his first start. On another not, Betancourt and Kotsay still suck. But, we already knew that.

[brettac1]

Marcum's really good.

[pebadger]

It's Enrico Pallazzo!

[Oldcity]

I love watching Marcum pitch. Too bad that error cost him an extra inning.

[cheesecup22]

Marcum is a stud.. please get some more runs to ensure this is not a wasted effort

[hurricanecrush]

I thought we were the only idiots that did the wave in a one-run game.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Marcum on his game! Strikes out the side baby! Love it!

[pebadger]

Boy that last pitch looked fat, but just danced, almost like a knuckleball. "Dialed in" is right.

[jason21nl]

he is right on the uhhh, Marcum tonight.... pretty weak huh?

[endaround]

Why is Sean Green up in a close game?

[umphrey]

questionable move leaving Marcum in here. He's pitching good but against the bottom of the order and over 100 pitches...I would go bullpen

[Oldcity]

Why is he hitting with this pitch count? Ugh

[chuckiehacks]

Uh oh, Weeks seems to have hurt his wrist...

[ninja33]

roenicke was going to sac bunt anyway, and marcum can get one down. why waste the pinch hitter (marcum is probably better than anyone on the bench anyway)
