I don't understand a day off the air on the road. They are there, they might as well work the game.

Jimmy's got no command again today

[trwi7]

Can someone watching explain what happened.

 

Conor Gillaspie lines into force out, pitcher Jimmy Nelson to catcher Martin Maldonado. Buster Posey out at home. Matt Duffy scores. Jarrett Parker to 2nd. Conor Gillaspie advances to 1st on a throwing error by catcher Martin Maldonado. Two out.

 

I'm assuming the line drive hit Nelson in the glove, he dropped it and then threw home for the force out. Maldonado then tried to get the double play but made the throwing error allowing Duffy to score. Am I close?

Congratulations Davies, you're our best pitcher

[markedman5]

Defense didn't help,him.out but this is another disappointing start for Jimmy.

Somebody at gameday is asleep at the wheel because it's been stuck on Matt Duffy's strikeout when it was 5-0 for probably 20 minutes now.

Line drive off Nelson's stomach, he picks it up, throws to Maldonado for the force at home, Maldonado throws to first, the ball hits the runner and trickles away allowing the run to score.

I didn't get to see any of this one, and guess I'm glad I didn't bother.

 

More and more of the die hard fans (ie. people who have been Brewers fans all their lives, but aren't on boards like this) I talk to are realizing this team is going nowhere this year. A lot more seem open to trading Braun, Lucroy, etc.
