06/06/05 Yankees (Johnson) @ Brewers (Davis) 7:05 CST

A miracle. That's my only explanation.

[AJAY]

YESSSSSS !!!!!!!

[clancyphile]

Sharpie... nice to see you get out of that jam, but PLEASE don't scare us like that!

[batman]

"See, I told you. Just let your battlers keep battling, 'cause we've got the grinders, the gamers, and the hard workers. Doug is a gamer, man, he's a grinder and he works hard. He battles. That's just another example of how great he's been for us, keeping us in games and getting the big out when he needs it."

 

~Ned Yost, continued

GREAT DP by Spivey and Hall. Spivey really got rid of tat quick.

 

**WIPES A SWEATED UP BROW***

[hawing]

Are they trying to turn this into the longest game this season?

 

Well, it's the yankees. Although I don't think they're worthy of capitalization, it's probably a rule to maximize their media coverage in any way possible.

 

(This is the nicest thing I have said or thought about tonight's opponent all day.)

 

Sharpie could use a fresh dose of sharpitude.

If some of our players are "grinders," do Chad Moeller and Wes Helms count as hoagies?

And if so, does that make the Brewers "Hoagies and grinders, hagies and grinders, Navy beans navy beans, meat loaf sandwich"

Helmses and Moellers, Helmses and Moellers, Magruders Magruders, Jeff Cirillo

I guess you could say that Davis somehow battled his way to a quality start

[ja002h]

And he comes back with a 1-2-3 6th. Weird. Well, that's a quality start at least.

[Diskono]

bob brainerd is trying to announce

[Vgmastr]

Thanks for leaving RJ in, Torre.

[lithium75]

and now Davis can win, Junior earning his keep...today

[batman]

See that, Yankees? He's really good... and lucky you, he's available. Please call 414-902-4000 and ask for Doug Melvin.

So do we have to lay off Spivey now for the next week?

[AJAY]

SPIVEY WITH A BOMB !!!!

 

I hope the Yankees like him and trade for him now.

[ja002h]

I hope we can swing something after the game.

[DHonks]

wow, Davis with the lead. It's a win fellas, cause Davis doesn't get ND's.

[brewerjamie15]

If Icould take back every bad thing I've said about Spivey, I still wouldn't. For a sucky guy, that was a nice go ahead homer though.

I wouldn't go that far

[kiwi brewer]

hey Georgie S. meet Junior

 

Junior, meet Georgie S.

 

bring up Weeks!

[hawing]

So do we have to lay off Spivey now for the next week?

 

Maybe...if 4 runs holds up, and there are no, um, costly errors in the mid-infield tonight. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

 

Nice of Junior to give Sharpie a chance at the W.

[ja002h]

Wise, excellent.

[lithium75]

For today, Junior is 1-3 with a go ahead home run, and a nice double play to get out of a jam. Weeks is 0-4 with a walk, a strikeout with the bases loaded, and an error that cost a couple of runs. So for today, we keep Junior. As for tomorrow, well, things change quickly in this "What have you done for me lately" world of major league baseball.

[rluzinski]

Nice to see Yost finally figured out that Wise is our best bullpen guy. Didn't take him TOO long, just a third of the season.
