They didn't.

[Blazer25]

A true sign that Jenks is lost....

 

 

Missed a FB right down the chute....

[deeswan]

Come on Jenks, take ball 4!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

Nevermind http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

[Bruce Ciskie]

Why don't we just forfeit the game? Clearly, no one in the dugout is interested in winning it.

 

Nice strategy, Ned. I'm starting to think you're not much better than some of the idiots I like to rip (i.e. Little, Guillen, etc.).

[Oldcity]

How can you swing at so many balls!? Frustrating...

[Blazer25]

Ball 4....strikeout #4....horrible!!!!

[brettac1]

Yep. Vintage Jenkins today.

[batman]

Who could have predicted that? Certainly not Nedley.

 

Puke.

 

In his defense, of course, it's not like he's got an abundance of useful players on the bench.

 

Having three third-basemen is just not a good idea. Neither is having only one left-handed hitter on the bench, especially when said hitter can't hit right-handers.

 

EDIT: Bill-Magruder could have stayed in the game.

 

Yeah, in that case nevermind. Just dumbness all around that inning.

Bill-Magruder could have stayed in the game.

[DHonks]

that was abysmal. My dad was calling the Jenkins strikeout on the high heater. I was calling the fastball over the plate that he takes for strike three. I owe him a buck I guess

[clancyphile]

ARGH!!!

Because you have absolutely ZERO plate discipline?

[deeswan]

Jenkins has apparently found true nirvana. A one outcome player. GJ = 1O

[clancyphile]

I'm beginning to think moving Overbay to the OF wouldn't be so bad if it meant Jenkins was dealt instead.

[H0FFY]

I have a simple question. How can a guy that was so, so darn good when he was 24 and 25 not improve but get much, much, much worse as he goes through his best age years.

 

I just do not get it.

 

But he did manage a half year of decency to pick up is 7 mill x 4 years contract.

 

How, how disappointing.

[brettac1]

Having three third-basemen is just not a good idea. Neither is having only one left-handed hitter on the bench, especially when said hitter can't hit right-handers.

Neither is 12 freakin' pitchers. You take more options away from an already tactically challenged manager in order to keep Tommy Phelps?

[ImGantnerDamit]

Jenks = 1TO

[danzig6767]

Two very ugly at bats in a row by Lee and Jenkins,bailing out the pitcher

[AJAY]

Brutal. Simply brutal.

 

Jenkins should refund some of his salary. He's just killing us today.

 

Drop him in the order.

[Blazer25]

No runs last inning is on Lee....

 

He's got to put the ball in the OF there...

 

 

Jenks does suck today though...

[scoop53714]

did he swing at ball four? that is horrific. jeeeezzz jenkins. get a life.

[brettac1]

Lee gets a bit of a hall pass, however, Jenkins does this thing three times a week.

[danzig6767]

Yea scoop it was high,ball four no doubt

[ThePurpleStorm]

WOW! I thought he was suppose to be good this year. Truly Pathetic. He looks so clueless up there

[DHonks]

the good news fellas is that this inning we have Miller, Branyan, and Hardy, meaning we have a chance for a shot from the Muscle, and the top of the order coming up for another chance. Also, we're only down one. As frustrating as this is, it's been a good game thus far
