2012-05-21 Giants (Bumgarner) at Brewers (Wolf), 7:10 PM CDT (Hart starts at 1B) [Brewers lose, 4-3 in 14 innings]

[Raw Biz]

Well, on a positive note, aside from one pitch (and the walks preceding), Wolf has looked pretty decent tonight. Hopefully he can keep it going all year.

[cnycerveceros]

Could Lucroy play first?

[RockCoCougars]

OK, Rickie has actually hit the ball hard a few times and I haven't had to endure a 'Miller 64' commercial.....I'm feeling better than I should about a two run deficit in the 8th.

[logan82]

I like the contact play when other teams do it.

[hurricanecrush]

I'm feeling a couple runs in the 8th...

[Dollarbill13]

Maysonet is not Rob Deer-esque with his pop ups

[Bombers]

Why on earth did Maysonet get an AB over Lucroy

[PrinceEatMeat]

I agree, not sure why he's holding Lucroy back. Maybe for Gomez in the 9th I guess. But still, Maysonet sucks. I'd rather have anyone else on the bench over him. Other than maybe Morgan, because he's so bad against LHP.

Saving Luc for an AB with guys on base I guess? I don't really get it either, especially because the Giants likely won't be pulling out an LHP in the last two innings (Romo and Casilla are both RH, not that Luc can't hit a RHP). oh well, get it done Braun.

[jjgott]

Braun does it again! Love the fist pump!

[Raw Biz]

Amazing, love the reaction from Braun after he hit it.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Brauny!!! He knew it too! Yes!

[pebadger]

OK, it's just like old times now for about 5 seconds.

[hurricanecrush]

I'm feeling a couple runs in the 8th...

 

I wouldn't mind being wrong.

[Bombers]

Braunie!!!

[PrinceFielderx1]

Excellent call.

[Dollarbill13]

HOLLA!!!

 

Saving Luc for the walk-off in the 9th

Sure thing, bud

 

 

SWOON

[ELCABALLO45]

Un Real. He is so clutch its stupid. Mr. MVP.

[markedman5]

God is Braun a stud........

[ELCABALLO45]

Ryan Braun is trending right now

[Dollarbill13]

Let's go GoGo

[TURBO]

I think we get the point about catchers starting a lot of games. Nobody wants Lucroy to start every game. We just want Roenicke to be smarter with how he gives him those days off (i.e. should be starting against the tough left-hander instead of Kottaras, regardless of whether or not Wolf is pitching).

 

^This.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Gomez hitting there against Romo is inexcusable with Morgan, Ishikawa, and Green all on the bench. Need a LHH there.

[TURBO]

Is Axford going Turnbow on us?

 

The guy makes me nervous whenever he takes the mound this year...
