That was a horrible 2nd strike call on Braun

Wait...Roenicke already took Hanley Ramirez out of the game! HE SHOULD BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY.

Big opportunity to pick up a game on the Cards tonight. Lopsided score in Baltimore.

It sure would be nice to tack on a couple of runs. The Dodgers had a long trip to MKE, thy might mail this one in if they get down by a couple more.

Doug DeCinces hit 237 home runs in his 15 year career.

 

On this date in 1982, California Angels third baseman Doug DeCinces hit three home runs to help his team beat the Seattle Mariners 9-5. His three home run game came less than a week after hitting 3 home runs against the Minnesota Twins. DeCinces wound up third in the American League MVP vote, behind Eddie Murray and winner Robin Yount. Yount was nearly a unanimous winner, collecting 27 of 28 first place votes. Reggie Jackson, DeCinces' teammate, collected the other first place vote.

C'mon Rammy, that 3-1 pitch wasn't even close.

Stache, the first thing that came to my mind was, how sexy would Gomez think he was in that uniform. Lookin a little snug.

[brewcrewdue80]

Lohse's pitch count is leading me to believe the Bullpen will have to get 9outs or more tonight....Better score another 4insurance runs and soon!

Other teams make stupid baserunning blunders too

Thanks, Dee. And here I thought we were the only team that made stupid base running mistakes.

Telecast said Luc has come out to warm up the pitcher a couple time while Maldy got his pads on, so thinking the hamstring is pretty minor.

[chickinbrickin]

My phone must cause that. This post you read is only a test from you severe double post warning center.

[wildcat83]

That was hit hard. Seems like Gonzalez has been doing that since the mid 90's. The guy can sure hit.

[brewcrewdue80]

As many hits in the first four batters as in eight innings against Hernandez a month ago. And twice as many runs through five batters. Let's see it all night; can't stand when we hit early then don't touch the starter after and he goes seven strong.

 

This post Jinxed our batters! 14straight retired

[wildcat83]

Pretty good play by Hererra. I actually like having him on the bench, can play pretty much anywhere and hold his own in the field.

[folly412]

Should have told our players the Dodgers traded for Felix Hernandez. They wouldn't have looked like total clowns all night after the fourth batter if there was an ace on the mound.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Wow. Pretty happy they took Hernandez out. He was dealing and only at 65 pitches.

[brewcrewdue80]

Why didn't we put a claim in on this Hernandez? Since Garza was down?...At least then we could have just refused to work a trade and left him on the Phillies roster

[folly412]

Back to AAA with you, Wooten.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

I didn't see which lefty the Brewers put in, but they better not let him face Puig. It'd be a bit silly to pull Wooten so the lefty could face Gordon, Puig, and Gonzalez, instead of leaving Wooten in for Gordon and Puig, then going with a lefty for Gonzalez..

[sauveb]

The Dodgers hitters did a nice job of making Lohse throw a lot of pitches to get outs. They couldn't do much against him but they got him out of the game after 6 innings and now they can attack the bullpen. I hope Roenicke and Narron were paying attention.
