2014-08-03 Brewers (Garza) at Cardinals (Lackey), 1:15 PM CDT [Happy 31st birthday, Mark Reynolds!; Brewers lose, 3-2]

[yfinn6]

Happy birthday Mark.. and nice HR!

[craigharmann]

Yahooo!!!!!! Loving the beating we're giving the classies!!!

[yfinn6]

Place your bets, place your bets.. who gets hit for the Brewers?

[bucks2281]

Fully expecting Gomez to get hit, followed by a Gomez meltdown.

[wildcat83]

Gomez.

I like how Garza played up acting super pissed off there, like he didn't want to get up and in on Adams.

 

Garza seems like the type of guy who will "get one back" for a teammate without waiting for the manager to order it.

 

Of course I don't condone this, but Garza just seems like that kind of guy.

[yfinn6]

I'm going to say Braun, especially if there are 2 outs.

 

They're not going to hit Gomez if he keeps getting himself out.

1-2 count to a lead off hitter probably not the time to "get one back". Agree that Garza wouldn't hesitate to do it, just don't think that was the time to put someone on.

I don't think he was TRYING to hit him.... I just think he was definitely trying to get up and in, and well.....if he hits him, well, oh well.

[craigharmann]

Garza's response did seem a little over the top. Gomez will get hit. But he'll score and make them pay.

I went with Gomez because of the little mini tantrum he threw after the K in the first.

[yfinn6]

Ramirez couldn't have rolled it out there any better.

[yfinn6]

Man, heckuva play by Rami there.

[Bombers]

Why no bunt?

[folly412]

Don't mind pulling back when the third baseman is 10 feet away, but you're supposed to slap it over his head, not go the other way

[DuWayne Steurer]

Get the glove down Mark.

[AZBrewCrew]

Menards Big Inning brewing here???

[DuWayne Steurer]

Menards Big Inning brewing here???

 

You're either way behind or WAY ahead. I hope you're way ahead.

[AZBrewCrew]

Id feel alot more comfortable with another run or 5. Gut feeling tells me this game is far from over

[adamb100]

Our manager is dumb.

[Vgmastr]

Pinch hitting for Garza?? Are you kidding me?

[stoutdude04]

Garza hurt?

[sargennm]

If this backfires ... At least we know Mark A has fired a manager during a playoff chase before

[Warning Track Power]

I really don't like Roenicke sometimes. This makes no sense unless Garza is hurt

[DuWayne Steurer]

So Lohse is left in to give up nine runs.......

 

Garza is pulled at 71 pitches, and no runs allowed after 6 innings.

 

Garza absolutely better be injured or Roenicke's stupid.
