2011-07-29 Astros (Lyles) at Brewers (Wolf) - [Brewers win, 4-0]

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

pretty hard to be dissing on yuni the past month

[owbc]

This team had some disastrous road trips, but if they keep dominating at home they are going to cruise into the playoffs.

 

The pitching has really been excellent lately.

BREWERS WIN

[ilovebeer]

Just over 41000 tonihgt another sellout.

[JET15]

Man are these some bad teams the Brewers are playing. This is nice.

Yeah, but we had a really tough schedule, so it seemed. This is a nice break and it's a good thing with Rickie out.

 

I was not excited about the Lopez move, but that was sweet tonight. Now I'm glad we've got him.

[ilovebeer]

Lopez had a good game and Yuni made some nice plays.

[markedman5]

Yo goes tomorrow and I'll be there!

[owbc]

The +4 run differential also gets the Brewers back to even for the year.

[ilovebeer]

Tomorrow is almost completely sold out.

[JET15]

I'm happy for Randy. He's been very consistent and deserves some wins.

[ilovebeer]

Did you know, that Loe has a pet bullcontstrictor as a pet.

[brewmann04]

Great win tonight keep it up guys . The pitching has been awesome.

[ilovebeer]

St Louis is about to win, Pittsburg lost and Reds are tied at 3 top 12

[ilovebeer]

Watching the game on TV, I thought the crowd was kind of quite, I think it has to due with who you are playing, I suspect next week Miller Park will be rock in.

Observations from being at the game:

 

1) Man, the Astros are bad.

2) The Friday night fans remembered Felipe Lopez enough with the die hards to give him a pretty good ovation.

3) Brad Mills really did manage that 7th inning like his team was competing for first place.

4) It was nice to get K-Rod and Ax a night off. I was figuring RRR would go Loe for two and then Saito, but Wolf was able to grit through the 7th after being over 105 pitches to start.

 

Gotta beat the bottom feeders to get anywhere.

[chadomac]

what the H is a bullcontstrictor?

[brewmann04]

These are the teams they need to beat and sweep need to try and get some ground.

Betancourt and Lopez had nice plays for them tonight, and I have no idea why Lopez hits so well in a Brewer uniform, but I hope he keeps it up for the duration of his stay.

[ilovebeer]

I guessed I spelled it wrong, A big snake.

Kameron Loe had a boa constrictor named Angel until 2009, when he went to play in Japan. He then gave Angel to a family in Dallas who had occasionally looked after her while he was with the Rangers.

 

Pretty fun game last night. Houston lived down to our expectations and my nephew not only finally saw a win, but got either the last or one of the last BP balls Hunter Pence tossed to a kid as a Stro.

 

Concession-wise, I was delighted to see that the club level deli still has the Brat Bomber sandwich, though somewhat less delighted to see that they hiked the price from $5 in 2010 to $8 this year.

 

Brewers: Don't let up. That is all.
