2011-10-12 Brewers (Gallardo) at Cardinals (Carpenter) - [Brewers lose, 4-3; trail NLCS, 2-1]

[Mr QL]

Don't blow up with two outs

[Big Ern2440]

Nobody on base - Pujols should have been diving out on all flour pitches or rubbing his arm on his way to first. This has been the most poorly managed series anyone could imagine.

[AZBrewCrew]

nice inning by Yo. Lets get some offense.

[derflotr]

Great pitching to Holliday behind 3-0. Something to build on, at least.

[lbb020]

The good news is that Carpenter and Yo basically have the same pitch counts through 2.0 IP...45 and 47 respectively. Let's get to their bullpen early and start putting up some crooked numbers.

[Mr QL]

Well keep the pressure on Carp

[brewerjamie15]

Can someone educate me as to why they pitched to pujols with nobody on right there? If he does not hit a dinger, he puts himself into scoring position with a double. Can't ya just walk him? Honest. This is not sarcasm.

[a3uge]

JOSIES ON A VACATION FAR AWAY hehe

[Schlitz001]

OK, 1 run game. Hit one more Kotsay and I'll think about forgiving RR.

[liveforoctober]

i just don't get it. brain so confused.

[sargennm]

no. way.

[brewerjamie15]

Putting Kotsay in was total genius. Greatest move ever. I knew he was the bomb.

[saget]

50% REDEMPTION YESSSS

[Fear The Chorizo]

Mark. Freaking. Kotsay!

[logan82]

There is one run back. 2 more to go.

[Oldcity]

Whoa... He got one of his runs back. Wow.

Because Roenike expects Pujols to revert to his Sunday form where he was 1/4.

[Fear The Chorizo]

weather may be a factor in this game, too...not sure if it's going to start raining hard enough to delay things, but I know precip's in the area

[a3uge]

Seriously, has there ever been a team with an 'opening pitcher' that only pitches the first? I don't think that would be too terrible of an idea. The first time the heart of the lineup sees the starter would be the 3rd inning. You're most likely going to have to use relief pitchers anyways...

[ninja33]

hey, thats one back Kots!

 

keep it rolling crew.

[AZBrewCrew]

Well Kotsay just redeemed himself...

[GB12]

Ok Kotsay. Way to redeem yourself

[JET15]

Redemption for KOTSAY?

[jjkoestler]

h ah ah ha ha ha wow. Kotsay. I got nothing.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

This game has been... weird.
