great game by Wes. See guys, he isn't terrible. Seriously though, Wes isn't a bad pitcher, but he needs to make some strides. He's been very good for 4-5 innings this year. Hopefully Wes learned some things this season and can come back next year and compete for a rotation or bullpen slot. I can see him being a very good reliever, as his stuff is very similar to David Weathers'

I was talking about the guy calling the game with (Daron).
I didn't see the game, but if things went as planned, Sutton's partner would have been Astros color man Jim Deshaies.

That’s the only thing Chicago’s good for: to tell people where Wisconsin is.

Congrats to Wes on a great start...hopefully this is something to really build upon. Then again, we've said this before. No more pessimism, today was Wes' day.

Obie won! Obie rocked!

 

Who'd have thought that the Brewers' first complete game shutout of 2004 would come courtesy of lil Wes?

 

Today was really fun at the ballpark (and I guess it's a good thing we went rather than rely on FOX 47). 22,000+ seemed small for fan appreciation day, but it was definitely a home-team crowd. I enjoyed this game about as much as I hated Monday night's late-inning collapse.

 

Thanks, Wes, for a good memory to see me through the off-season. (In the 22 games we attended this year, the Brewers were 14-8. Despite the second-half plummet, this is the best in-person record I have experienced since sometime in County Stadium.)

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.

If the Brewers were 14-8 with you in attendance, you need to be on the payroll.

Mass, MLB changes times, not the team. Can't worry about what you can't control.

 

not true Al. I remember the Brewers requesting the Angels move up the game time so that they could be back in Milwaukee before the sun rose the following day, and the Angels declined. At times MLB might have say, but I'd think it's more likely that the networks have the power, not MLB.

DH, I believe you're talking about apples and oranges. A team can "request" anything they want, but the home team can indeed schedule the game whenever. However, MLB can "ask" that the game time be changed. I'm not sure if the team can turn that down, or simply never does, but FOX and ESPN have always got whatever game they want, when they want it.
