No 3b tonight?

 

That sure is a new way to go about things...

 

[Funketown]

Braun needed that pretty badly.

[AZBrewCrew]

So what exactly does Sophie Minnart do? I thought she was replacing Craig Coshon during the social media segment, yet he still is there. Intern perhaps?

[dlk9s]

I'm really glad I didn't mock whoever it was that was pissed about RR not benching Braun to get him out of his slump.

[markedman5]

The more I see Estrada the more I think he should be a bullpen guy......

[trwi7]

Eye candy extraordinaire.

[MNBrew]

Whoa, Corey Hart actually hit the ball -- and at a time when it REALLY mattered (relatively speaking since the season's toast).

[The stache]

Corey Hart grand slam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #23 on the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[owbc]

4 runs, 1 hit.

 

Parra's turn to be closer.

[markedman5]

2 hrs that bounced off the top of the wall in the same game.....lol

[pretendastronaut]

I can never tell if it's going out or not when listening to Uecker this year. That was a tense few seconds.

[The stache]

^^^ I'll take it!

 

Brewers hitting the ball out of the park doesn't seem to be a problem at home.

[pretendastronaut]

2 hrs that bounced off the top of the wall in the same game.....lol

 

Oh, that explains it better then. Ueck didn't say it was that close.

[owbc]

I can never tell if it's going out or not when listening to Uecker this year. That was a tense few seconds.

 

BA couldn't tell whether it was gone or not either. I thought it was caught initially.

[owbc]

Tying run at the plate...again. Next reliever.

[davego]

Yea corey!

[pretendastronaut]

I'd normally think, why not just stick with Parra at this point, but the only team Parra has actually pitched poorly against in about two months, has been the Phillies.

[pitchleague]

yeah, it was tough to tell until the RF slapped his glove in disgust for not making the catch.

 

Hooray for a lead!

 

Hope we don't blow it.

 

 

 

Man, I haven't posted in an IGT in FOREVER.

[pebadger]

It just can't be easy. It just can't.

[The stache]

Whew, nice job Hendo!

[pretendastronaut]

Shhhh.....careful.....we've just seen an honest to goodness save alive in the wild. Try to make it feel welcome.

[valpocrewsader]

Weeks really Yuni'd that grounder in the 9th. Super slow runner coming for an easy force at 2nd, should have been routine to pick up that ball and get one out. Glad it didn't cost us. I felt bad for Parra, though.

[TooLiveBrew]

Corey Hart grand slam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #23 on the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2nd GS of his career... both this season. Went well over 3,000 PAs in his career without hitting one, and just like that -- two in one season.

 

I love baseball.

[dlk9s]

And Cliff Lee still hasn't beaten the Brewers or Indians.
