2014-04-12 Pirates (Volquez) at Brewers (Gallardo), 6:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 3-2]

[Fear The Chorizo]

when the April 2014 schedule came out, I think there were probably none of us that figured the Crew would be 9-2 after tonight...that's why I love baseball!

 

KRod's been unreal, but he needs at least a game off - Sunday almost sets up like Wang needs to make his first appearance regarless of game situation. No off day for almost 2 more weeks...

I love watching this team. Hell of a win.

 

I hope RR pulls out his Wang tomorrow.

[Eye Black]

Is Kintzler up? Am I missing something? With how well he'd been pitching I would think this would be a spot where he'd be in the conversation...

 

He's being placed on the 15 day DL as of today according to TH.

They have called up Rob Wooten.

Replay sucks, close play = stall

It would have taken 5 minutes longer for a full on Clint Hurdle meltdown argument and him getting tossed. Replay rocks! Get the call right and move on.

Every team over the course of a long season is going to play ugly at times. It is so nice to finally see the Crew win a few of the ugly ones and start to hopefully separate ourselves from the bad/mediocre teams.

Hurdle wouldn't have even come out to argue it, it was obvious and the first base coach was not going crazy. He went out because he had nothing to lose on a challenge. If it would be reversed that would be really good for his team, but if it was upheld nothing bad would happen to his team.

The replay system isn't bad. I switched back expecting it to be longer and missed the final atbat. I guess I am just used to the NFL.

I don't know what to say except, unreal. Unreal.

[SoupTown]

At what stage does Segura go down to the 8 spot and Gennett up to the two spot.

I was at the game tonight so I'll take credit for the W. Good atmosphere. Don't remember much after the sausage race though.

Getting ready to watch the game replay on the Roku.

 

I guess Brauny's solved the thumb problem for now. His last six games, he's 11 for 24 (.458 AVG) with 7 runs scored, a triple, 3 home runs and 10 RBI. A nice 1.397 OPS over that span.
