2011-10-09 Cardinals (Garcia) at Brewers (Greinke) - 3:07 PM CDT [Brewers win, 9-6; lead NLCS 1-0]

[craigharmann]

Prince's bomb travelled off of his bat at 119.2 MPH.....fastest speed on ANY HR this season.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Now's the time, Weeks. Now's the time. Just like your last AB.

[davego]

Cmon. Ricky.

[jjkoestler]

Ideally the Brewers score 4 or 5 more so the Brewers can drill Pujols.

[jjfanec]

Come on Rickie. Show them you feel disrespected by the intentional walk to Prince

[DuWayne Steurer]

Ideally the Brewers score 4 or 5 more so the Brewers can drill Pujols.

Ideally, the Brewers will refuse to engage in that type of idiocy with the Cardinals, even if context allows.

[stoutdude04]

ball was stung...damn

[MillerBombers]

Ideally the Brewers score 4 or 5 more so the Brewers can drill Pujols.

Because they won't try to retaliate...

Just keep winning, nothing better to quiet St. Louis. And nothing will feel better on our end.

[B2k1121]

Weeks hit it hard, he's looking better.

[jjfanec]

That was a well hit ball and good overall at bat. If Weeks plays like this the rest of the series I feel good about our chances

[tyguy20204]

Agreed, can't blame Rickie too much for that one. Solid contact.

I know some people get disgusted with some posters on this site when things go bad, but I think the for the most part this site is excellent. Check out the STLtoday.com Cards forum. It's really quite unbelievable how bad they whine. They're even criticizing BA for getting t0o excited on the HR's.

Now better have someone ready for Greinke

[Oldcity]

Get him out now. Now.

[Schlitz001]

Greinke's got to have a shorter leash than a saint bernard in this inning.

[Oldcity]

So I would much rather see Saito here. Top of the order, Greinke over 100...

[young guns]

I don't agree with Greinke coming out here for the 7th with the middle of their order, already over 100 pitches. I was ok with the 6th because it was the bottom of their order.

[ninja33]

I am normally one of the slowest to criticize Roenicke AND I am a huge fan of Greinke and would usually vote for leaving him in under most circumstances.......but i do not agree with this decision. at all.

[endaround]

I have no clue why a 100+ pitch Greinke is out there.

[jjfanec]

Why is Greinke still out there? This doesnt make sense

[DuWayne Steurer]

Alright, last inning, I thought it was at least an arguable/questionable decision to send Greinke back out. With the heart of the order coming up to take their 4th look at Greinke, I can't agree with this.

[jjfanec]

Ok one batter not the end of the world. Just get a DP ball and all is forgotten!

[young guns]

At least he had a quick leash, probably trying to steal a couple outs or the inning.

[Oldcity]

All this did was make things tougher for Saito.
