Smacking around Lamb. Reminds me of Randy Wolf a bit. Tossing about 87-88. Not going to cut it missing spots.

Nice to see a 2-run single from Jimmy.

How about one of those crooked 20 run games tonight?

[1992casey]

That'd be fun.

 

Lamb's been charged with nine earned runs in the two innings he pitched.

[stalton]

Lamb's ERA rose a full point!

Nifty pick by Middlebrooks

This may be as close as the 2016 Brewers get to a genuine laugher. Treasure the feeling.
