2011-09-11 Phillies (Worley) at Brewers (Gallardo) - [Brewers win, 3-2]

[owbc]

As bad as things are right now for the Brewers, the Braves are in much bigger trouble with the injuries to their pitching staff.

[ninja33]

well for you guys interested cards are on their way to sweeping the braves and making that 6 straight.

not interested in what the cardinals are doing. avoid the sweep today, and go .500 the rest of the way. The cardinals would have to finish 14-2 to catch the brewers. If the brewers lose today, the cards still have to go 13-3 (keeping that .500 record the rest of the way). And the cardinals still have to go through the phillies pitching gauntlet like the crew just did. It's the brewers division to lose, not the cardinals to take...don't need to worry about them.

The best thing might be for the Cards to continue winning and overtake the Braves but not the Brewers.

being an atlanta resident, that would ruin my NLDS plans. But hey, it involves the brewers in the playoffs and not playing the phillies. so works for me i guess.

[young guns]

Ugh, Imagine, in that scenario, us beating the dbacks and the cards beating the phils. I think I've had enough of stl this year.

[DannoMac21]

Why was Weeks taken out?...

[ninja33]

so, not having to play the best team in the NL in the playoffs? I would take that scenario in a heartbeat.

I think Morgan's at-bats would be extremely interesting if that happened.

The entire series for that matter would be intense.

[owbc]

Yo hurting himself with poor baserunning. Can't make those kind of mistakes against Philly.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

A bit overreactive, but still: Why are the basic things of this game so hard for the Brewers to master?

[Oldcity]

You've got to be kidding me Gallardo!

[wOOgiE22]

Then gives a HR up right away to tie it up. Get your heads in it Brewers!

[trwi7]

Nice job Yo.

[owbc]

Yo has been pitching well today, but you can't make those kind of mistakes up in the zone.

[wOOgiE22]

They sure do shoot themselves in the foot a lot. Can't play fundamentally sound baseball and make it 2-0, then come back the next inning and give up 2 home runs and the lead.

[B2k1121]

The way its going now, you knew they would give up the lead right after failing to score.

[wisconsinfan47]

This feels very 2008

[wibadgers23]

That was a terrible pitch by Yo to Howard, but this is more about the offense taking an absolute crap yet again.

[cnycerveceros]

I haven't watched the Brewers much lately, and I thought, well, I should. I turned it on to see the 2 Philly homeruns. Come on Brewers, make it fun again!

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Hey, Casey, watch another 3rd strike. Love the consistency.

[wOOgiE22]

Come on protect with 2 strikes Casey!!!! Stop watching it go by!

[Schlitz001]

Well at least McGehee took 4 pitches to make his out.

[cnycerveceros]

Shut up McGehee that pitch was a strike. I'm so sick of this scrub.

He's got to be among the league leaders in backwards K's.

[wOOgiE22]

Yeah how bout you too Yuni!! Love those 2 hitters!

[trwi7]

I'm thinking of a certain Earth, Wind and Fire song and replacing the word Dancing with Choking.
