Wow, seriously MLB. If you can't call the neighborhood/slide play at 2nd consistently, don't change the damn rule. You guys are so inconsistent with this, you may as well flip a coin to decide how it's going to be called. Maybe you guys ARE flipping a coin.

 

3 runs so far that has cost us. You're deciding games because you can't get this figured out.

How many times has Scooter been nailed on that play? About four?

[ecjimg]

Why wasn't that a double play???

[1992casey]

The reviewers are saying that the runner didn't deviate enough from his original path to hinder Arcia's ability to complete the play.

[I Heart Brewers]

I have a feeling this lineup is going to get no hit a few times in the second half of the year.

[jerichoholicninja]

Just saw the slide and to the letter of the rule that should be an out. His feet clearly weren't going toward the base. The Padres announcers kept saying his hand was close to the base so it should be a legal slide which is stupid because the hand has nothing to do with the slide.

[trwi7]

At least Arcia got to play 14 consecutive innings before being benched.

[The stache]

Days when Braun isn't in the lineup, especially.

 

Out 5-8 hitters today are hitting .219, .219, .000 (small sample, but I'm greatly concerned about Arcia's approach at the plate), and .250.

 

We're losing 11-0 to a team 15 games below .500. At this rate, we might yet challenge for the #1 pick.

 

I have a feeling this lineup is going to get no hit a few times in the second half of the year.

As hard as I've been on this Brewer team I must say they haven't had very many games like this. They have played surprisingly competitive baseball in general.

[The stache]

Braun has a real legit shot at another 20-20 season with his recent production. And, I'm really looking forward to the day when he hits career home run #300 as a Brewer.

 

We have to have little things to look forward to, as it's going to be rough going for a while.
