BA really let loose on that horrible HBP call. I've never heard him say stuff like that. It was great.

 

Just too bad it didn't happen to the Yankees, Red Sox, or Dodgers. Then someone outside of Milwaukee might actually care too.

Cardinals are losing 6-2 to Tampa Bay. It would be so nice if our offense woke up and won this game.

A high fastball is exactly what you should be throwing at someone trying to bunt. And he wasn't able to successfully bunt.

 

On a 3 ball count it's not. Ya let him bunt the dang ball and take the out. That's the proper pitch. He had 5 opportunities to do so. He didn't. Bad call or not it was bad pitching.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

I certainly trust Duke more than I trust Kintzler, yet it seems that in every tight spot, RR sends Kintzler in. And, more times than not, the outcome is not what we were hoping for.

 

Nice AB, Rickie. Come on, Brauny!

Great, 3-0, and Roenicke has him sit there with the bat on his shoulder. Ya, the former NL MVP swinging couldn't do anything for us, considering he's already homered and singled tonight.

Time for some Ryan Braun heroics!!!

 

Can't have heroics when you're being told to go for the walk.

I'm just baffled as to how RR can get blamed for some of this stuff.

 

Do you really think he gave Rickie the green light and then told Braun to take?

 

I HIGHLY doubt that's the case. And having him come out of the dugout yelling doesn't do anything.

what crap!

 

those last 2 strikes were very questionable, and not a word from our manager.

 

 

What good does that really do?

 

As soon as Braun starts arguing he needs to go out there and try to get ejected in place of Braun

Again, what would make you believe this to be the case? The 3-0 pitch was inside. We know Braun is having trouble with inside pitches so I would assume he decided to take there and it had nothing to do with RR.

Some of you are just silly. Plain old silly. Braun could've swung and should of. And arguing balls and strikes is so pointless. So, so pointless.

Yep, not on Ron. As Bill said, Braun simply isn't comfortable hacking 3-0. And not going to do anything to go out arguing balls and strikes unless it's screwing us consistently. Hasn't been a good zone, but hasn't been against us all night.

So he should just sit in the dug out and say nothing, not try to protect his guys at all?

 

It is ok for a manager to show displeasure with the way things are going on occasion...

Maybe show your players you have their backs. Same with hitters being HBP,
