Why didn't Yost double-switch, if Bottalico was due up first in the top of the 7th? He could've certainly gone another inning.

 

That's a good question... I thought that was why Cirillo was warming up in the bullpen (or the bullpen area).

[DHonks]

not to jinx us, but a steal would be nice. getting Clark to scoring position off the slow delivery of Fox and slow release of Barrett

[ja002h]

Gee, Clark gets another walk. Go figure.

 

edit: single for Junior!!

The longer we make those old hags wait to sing their stupid song, the better. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

[Bruce Ciskie]

COME ON CARLOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[batman]

Walks are so awesome. All the cool kids are doing it.

 

Time to mount up, El Caballo!

 

~Bill

[Oldcity]

Caballo up with the bases juiced? I have a very good feeling about this.

[DHonks]

I think they like 1 inning right now from Bottalico, since our pen is rested and he'd be available tomorrow

[brettac1]

I think they need to PH for Jenkins, how about Helms? Seriously.

 

EDIT: Though Jenkins does own Remlinger to a clip of .154.

[deeswan]

Ah, Carlos falls victim to the "we're the Brewers and can't get anyone in from 3rd with less than 2 out" disease.

 

How confident are we now with Jenks coming up against Remlinger???

 

My answer would be not very much.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Well...that sucked.

[Oldcity]

Ah, what's he swinging at!

[Oldcity]

This is why baseball is great. Jenks is 0-3 with three strikeouts, yet here he has a chance to totally redeem himself. Unfortunately it's against a lefty... COME ON GEOFF!

[Bruce Ciskie]

Odds of the Brewers pinch-hitting for Jenkins...about the odds of Craig Nall starting in Week One for the Packers.

[endaround]

Will Yost do the brave thing and hit Helms for Jenkins?

[danzig6767]

That ball was high and a foot off the plate

 

Ugggggggg

[batman]

Argh. Don't swing at balls, CLee.

 

I'd like to see Helms here (gasp). You could say that Jenks is due, but you could also say that Jenks is lost.

 

~Bill

[clancyphile]

Foul out.

And a lefty against Jenkins.

 

I don't think our guys are gonna convert this one, folks.

[RobertR]

I'd have liked it a lot better if Yost had lead off with Cirillo and saved Magruder. I don't have much faith in Jenkins here.

 

Robert

[Bruce Ciskie]

Told you.

[Blazer25]

Gotta score here.....

 

Nevermind.....

 

 

edit: I'm a dumbass....

[deeswan]

I certainly wouldn't mind seeing Cirillo or even Helms PH right now. Too bad Ned would never do that.

[batman]

Actually, I don't think we have anyone left on the bench to replace Jenks in the outfield since we already used Magruder. Just another reason our bench is intolerably poor.

 

~Bill

[DHonks]

for a 90 mph 2-0 heater over the plate, Jenks was way late

[tnweill]

Just don't swing, that's your best chance.
