[Pugger]

I really hope they don't put Braun in the game. I don't want one of our All-Stars booed and he will be for sure.

[3and2Fastball]

Greinke pitching vs 2 of the guys he was traded for (Escobar & Cain)

[Outlander]

I really hope they don't put Braun in the game. I don't want one of our All-Stars booed and he will be for sure.

Well he is going to be introduced so what does it matter if he gets booed once or twice. I think he will have a key at bat late in the game.

[young guns]

I hope he hits a game winning homerun just to see what the fans would do then. Do they cheer because the home league won or boo because [sarcasm]hes the devil[/sarcasm].

[1992casey]

They've been showing each team's "Franchise Four." I'm pleased to say that I haven't been appalled by any of the choices.

 

FWIW, Nolan Ryan was on the Franchise Four for three teams (Astros, Angels, and Rangers).

 

The Brewers four are Cooper, Fingers, Molitor, and Yount.

[1992casey]

Braun was booed, but all of the Cardinals were booed much more loudly than he was.

 

Everyone else was cheered. But I'm not sure what the fans did with Pujols. Do people "poo" him?

[craigharmann]

Are you wearing or have worn a Cardinals jersey? BOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Well done, Reds/All-Star fans, well done.

[trwi7]

Braun wasn't booed nearly as much as I expected. I would've booed K-Rod far more than Braun.

[Polish Falcons]

Start the game already!

[1992casey]

Start the game already!

Yeah, really.

 

MLB.com listed the game time as 6:00 (CDT), which was actually the start of the pregame show. Way to be complicit in getting people to turn in early.

[craigharmann]

Trout is good.

[craigharmann]

This sure has been fun!! DeGrom and his filth, now McCutcheon launching. Fun stuff!

[craigharmann]

KRod is KRap.

[adamb100]

Yeah K-rod is not that good tonight. Not that it matters though.

What could have been if we still had Cain, Escobar and Odorizzi. Yes, I know it got Greinke, but two all stars were traded.

[dlk9s]

Braun is coming up in the 9th.

 

Also seeing Prince and Braun together not both in Brewers uniforms makes me sad.

Good thing Braunie didn't try for the inside-the-park homerun:

I thoroughly enjoyed the Braun triple and run scored. Offsets the K-Rod 18.00 ERA a little.

[Lee16]

It's a good thing K-Rod's 2 ER weren't the deciding factor, would have cost the Brew Crew home field advantage in the World Series!

Are they really all stars, or is Cain and Escobar just allstars because they made the world series last year? I think it's the latter.

Would have been great if Greinke appeared in the picture as well.
