2011-07-10 Reds (Willis) at Brewers (Wolf) - [Brewers win 4-3, Counsell walkoff SF]

[brewmann04]

Brewers need some runs here ir else we be locked in second with the Pirates.

[ilovebeer]

I did. I thought it was legit.

[topper09er]

I did not know that anyone could edit, that doesn't sound right.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casey_McGehee

[Raw Biz]

Can't Casey sue them for putting that on?

Umm, it's wikipedia. Does anyone regard it as a credible source?

 

It can be. I used it to study a lot of historical stuff in college. I think there have been studies that show it's basically as accurate as encyclopedias. Obviously anyone can edit so at times, there may be something wrong or messed with but I believe they have people constantly checking pages to make sure everything is right.

[ilovebeer]

I am sorry I even said anthing about it now.

[topper09er]

Wow I just messed with McGehee's page and it took less than a minute for someone to take away my edit.

[pebadger]

Don't even think of looking at Yuni's page.

[Oldcity]

The defense should just position all 8 players on the left side of the field when Betancourt hits.

[topper09er]

It looks they have a robot that somehow detects suspect material and deletes it right away.

Seriously. Why doesnt RRR atleast start Wilson at short over Yuni. Neither can hit and Wilson plays better D doesn't he

[ilovebeer]

good i am glad its gone, who ever did it must have done is recently, that was not even funny.

[BrewCrewForever]

Willis goes 6 and we only get 2 runs off him. Disappointing.

What if somebody messed with the robot's page? It would probably explode.

[stalton]

/offtopic I'm saddened that there is only 1 line in T Plush's wiki page about Tony Plush /endofftopic

 

only down by a run, I still feel pretty confident that we can pull this one off

Agreed. The stuff I know about it's been accurate or the inaccuracies are trivial. Attempts to game it (Paul Revere really did ring bells and shoot guns, the Founders really did end slavery) usually don't last very long. There are a lot of scurrilous sites you can't care about but if something inaccurate is on wikipedia it is worth addressing, although a suit isn't worth it unless it's something like it sends your company's market cap down millions.

Wolf ends up going 7 with only 2 earned runs. Excellent effort by him today working around 12 base runners. We haven't scored a lot for him this year...time to get him some runs!

[topper09er]

It is so frustrating to be losing because of Rickie's stupid throw

[ilovebeer]

Randy, pitched well today

[pebadger]

Wisconsin's own Jordan Zimmerman continues to light it up for the Nats. His ERA is down to something like 2.52 after today's shutout win, with a K/BB of better than 4 and his last 3 losses being 2-1, 2-1, and 1-0. Tough to get much attention playing with the Nats.

When do we get to play Houston? those will be easy wins. they may lose 120 games this year.

They would have to go 12-59 the rest of the way to lose 120 games

[topper09er]

Didnt Chapman get his first career K against Lucroy last year too

[brewmann04]

Not if we have to play Houston on the road

[ilovebeer]

Pittsburgh win.
