2011-08-12 Pirates (Maholm) at Brewers (Greinke) - [Brewers win, 7-2; K-Rod first MLB hit]

[sfl2hnq17]

Let K-Rod finish it. We might need Dilliard in long relief tomorrow.

[topper09er]

Prince is 1 off the NL HR lead and 2 off the RBI lead. We may see Fielder-Braun finish 1-2 in the MVP voting

[razzzorsharp]

That ovation was huge for Morgan.

[topper09er]

Just led KRod bat

[topper09er]

Wow very sneaky by RRR, if he put KRod in the on deck circle then the Pirates would have walked Lucroy

[topper09er]

Hilarious how happy the bullpen is for one of their own

[razzzorsharp]

Haha, two awesome things happened there. First the single and also the T-Plush sign that Hawkins threw up right before.

[igor67]

What a hit

[stalton]

Congratulations on your first career hit, K-Rod...way to leg one out

[brewtank34]

wow! when things are going your way....things are really going your way! Way to go Francisco!!

[pebadger]

So if Hart goes deep here do you pullK-Rod anyway and give the inning to Dillard?

[razzzorsharp]

Hart loses a hitting streak, a minor one, because of that error call.

[topper09er]

KRod has never been on base before in the bigs, no pinch running, reaching on an error or fielder's choice.

[topper09er]

Cards won tonight and the Giants lost

[natronek8780]

It's too bad this team doesn't have any fun.

[pebadger]

It's all fun and games until somebody pulls a groin.

[razzzorsharp]

Wow, that really sucks. I don't understand how that even happens. I am fat and out of shape but yet have never hurt myself running to first base.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

That better be a minor thing for K-Rod. Hate to see the meltdown if it isn't.

[topper09er]

Do those bullpen guys ever run sprints? I mean 1 30 yard dash? I guess it could have come on his final stride when he lunged a little bit

[razzzorsharp]

Leg cramp, huh, I think my wife gets those.

[fondybrewfan]

Is it really that hard to run 90 feet and step on a base without hurting yourself?

 

Sounds like it is only minor but I am sure RR will try to get him a couple days off

[dlk9s]

Cards won tonight and the Giants lost

Thanks, ilovebeer.

[topper09er]

Im not sure Rock's last stat that the Brewers are 16-3 with ZG on the mound is correct considering he has 4 losses himself

[umphrey]

who would have guessed, I've gone to about 5 games this year and seen a KRod hit, Marcum grand slam and Greinke home run

[igor67]

I guess we'll have to put your face on the big screen when the pitchers are hitting.
