2014-04-22 Padres (Kennedy) at Brewers (Gallardo), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 2-1, 12 innings]

[PrinceFielderx1]

I hate gameday. It needs an upgrade.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

i still don't understand how braun hacks away at low and away breaking balls.

[SRB]

Damn, needed Scooter on second to activate A-Ram's RISP super powers.

[The stache]

Horrible game for Brauny tonight. That ball was in the dirt. He had no business swinging at that.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

nice job scooter!!!

[chickinbrickin]

Nice Scoot, kid is just a ball player..

[PrinceFielderx1]

There's the stolen base

[brwrsfan]

Someone get a damn hit. Got the 0-fer so far with RISP, and we've had plenty of chances.

[The stache]

Good job, Scooter! Now, get a hit, Luc!

[coolcool]

Nice gash in Scooter's leg from that slide. Well worth it.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

smart strategy. walk a beast in luc to face a struggling rookie.

[PrinceFielderx1]

Will be up to Davis. if the pitch is over the plate to Davis it will be crushed.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

aww damn it!

[brwrsfan]

That was a frustrating inning to say the least. And our bullpen gets to throw yet another inning.

[PrinceFielderx1]

Can't blame him for that. If it's right down the middle put a good hack on it.

[SoupTown]

is that 0 for 10 RISP? Oh, well. One more inning.

[coolcool]

is that 0 for 10 RISP? Oh, well. One more inning.

 

At least...

[SoupTown]

30+ pitches for Figaro. You gotta get him out if he puts a guy on base. He will be gassed

[brwrsfan]

Yup, 0-10 with RISP. This game needs to end, our bullpen is going to be just fried.

[Lucroy74]

Figaro looking good. How long can he go?

[SoupTown]

hmmm, pitches 32 and 33... 97 mph and 96 mph. You gotta leave him in another inning. Ha ha. Who knows.

[The stache]

Yikes. When this offense is good, it's pretty good. Not great, but pretty good.

 

When it's bad, it's pretty bad. And oddly enough, it's at home where we're having problems. In 11 games, we've scored 28 runs. 2.5 runs per game.

 

Yo deserved better.

 

BTW, this team really needs a day off. 14 straight without a break. It would have been 18 in a row if not for the postponed game in Philly.

[SRB]

How about a nice and simple Reynolds HR here.

[DoubleSwitch]

Time for some 3TO heroism

[dlk9s]

come on braun you're not a rookie...

I've said this many times in the past, but sometimes the pitcher just wins the battle. Not every out or even every strikeout is an abject failure or some pathetic effort by the batter. The pitcher made some good pitches. The last one was great. Looked like it was going to be close enough for Braun to protect and then dove out of the zone. The pitcher did his job.

 

Whenever our pitchers strike a guy out, we're all like, "Yeah! Great job! Nasty stuff!" When their guy does it, we're like, "Pathetic."
