2011-05-09 Padres (Latos) at Brewers (Greinke) - [Brewers win, 4-3; pre- and post-game audio near tail end of thread]

Axford looked ok but the Padres were chasing. Did he get his breaking ball in at all?

Yes. It wasn't great, but it was good enough. I know he got Cantu to miss one by a foot in the last AB.

Now thats better. A lot of good at bats/line outs and solid pitching. I am definetly going to have to make it to a few Grienke starts

[stalton]

I have to say, the Brewers didn't play hands down great, but won a game they "should" have won. Good Job Grienke on the first win. May you have many many more in a Brewers Uni

[TheCrew07]

Fell asleep and missed the end of the game, but sounds like the end of the game was pretty exciting. Good start to the home stand.

[crewcrazy]

Hey, the Brewers have won 2 of 3! What bad road trip? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

He's one awkward dude (watching the press conference). But man is he awesome.

How was Braun and Fielder? They haven't been hitting much lately, and I'm wondering if they hit at all today

[dlk9s]

Braun hit the ball well, but right to defenders (also drew a walk). Fielder had a nice double to the left field corner in his final AB, but didn't do anything in his first three (K and popup, don't remember the other AB).

I was at the game. Ludwick was the one being harassed in the outfield. He was a Cardinal, and therefore we hate him regardless of his current affiliation, I guess.

[GormanHarvey]

Anyone else jacked about getting to follow up Greinke's impressive performance tonite with Marcum tomorrow??

[hawing]

Nice night. The LF bleacher fans were really letting Ryan Ludwick have it. He didn't help his cause by losing that ball hit by Gomez early on. I also heard at least one chorus of "Happy Birthday" sung to Prince.

 

Otherwise, I thought the crowd as a whole was appreciative, but hardly electric. Barely 27,000 for Greinke Night? Come on.

 

Did anyone think we'd have reason to exclaim, happily, over Yuni flashing the leather? I admit, I did not. In the immediate aftermath of that double play, though, had someone offered me a Betancourt shirsey, I might well have accepted.

 

Since we forgot that today was too late to exchange our Tuesday tickets forward, we'll probably go Tuesday and finally see Marcum pitch. So I'm happy about that.

Yes, very much.

I was watching the game and couldn't figure out if the pitch trax was off or the umpire was. It seemed like the whole zone was shifted to the right batters box all game.
