2014-08-06 Giants (Vogelsong) at Brewers (Gallardo), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 7-4]

[AZBrewCrew]

Start chipping away....

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Work the count and you're gonna get those pitches, Carlos. One back!

[jason21nl]

Gomez needs to take that swing every time...He didn't try to murder the ball, just swung fast.

[The stache]

There's one! Way to go, Gogo!

Overall game W/L when entering the inning. Not broken down by half innings, but when entering the 2nd behind we are 10-16 this year.

[The stache]

Is Davis hurt? While Parra has played some great defense, and he hit what was the game winning solo homer last night, is he seeing more playing time because Davis is nursing an injury? Or is he just the new shiny thing that Roenicke is playing with?

[AZBrewCrew]

Thanks topper!! Stache, Davis is out with L elbow soreness

They're lying and saying he's injured, just like they're doing to Garza.

[pacopete4]

Haha I hope that was supposed to be in blue. Lying? Hilarious.

[Dead Simmons]

I'm getting to watch your game in snatches as the Red Sox@Cards is on a rain delay. It's always bad luck when the Cards are on ESPN.

 

The Reds are clobbering the Tribe again, and the Pirates are tied in the 7th.

[AZBrewCrew]

Gallardo 3 run shot anyone???

[pacopete4]

At least we are racking up the pitch count. Hopefully we'll smack him around the second time through.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

No control. Probably go to Marco early and let Fiers pitch in Garza's spot.

[folly412]

Fiers is watching eagerly. Estrada is looking for a place to hide when the phone rings in the pen...and comes up empty.

[coolcool]

This can only end poorly

[stoutdude04]

Big trouble here...need a good couple of pitches.

[AZBrewCrew]

So if Estrada has to go long tonight, that almost would solidify Fiers being called up and starting Saturday right?

[pacopete4]

The moment of the game where it just goes bad, real fast. We really don't belong in this game with how Gallardo is pitching. Hopefully the Cards lose, if they play.

[adambr2]

Let's just do that the easy way next time and pitch to the pitcher.

[coolcool]

That was a terrible at bat by Pence.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

This is a lot like the last Lohse game, except Gallardo is at least managing to escape jams. Can't imagine he goes further than five. I'd pull him next inning if he can't locate the fastball or curve.

[folly412]

Phew. Good thing we don't have Hunter Pence signs to provoke him like the Mets. Always get a kick out of his caffeine jitters batting stance - dude is moving constantly.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Good lord, I don't get a kick out of it. It's like watching a Michael Bay movie. Nonstop motion.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Carlos has now swung at the last six first pitches. Then again, he's had two homers and a bunt single in that time, so it's hard to complain too much. And I'd say he's generally had good pitches to hit.

[Bombers]

Braun really needs to get it going
