8/4/05 Brewers (Davis) vs. Mets (Benson) 11:10 AM CST

Holy Cow. He is really, really laboring.

[Oldcity]

Walk Piazza here, right?

 

Edit: Unless, of course, David Wright is batting. Oops.

[ThePurpleStorm]

BOOOOOOOOOOO! Double steal? Atleast he struck out.

[ThePurpleStorm]

YOu mean Wright?

HE GOT OUT OF IT!

[JenksFan5]

She had just turned 21. Robbing the cradle Mike?

 

Sheets wife is very down to earth and average looking. She did an interview on FSN after Sheets signed his big contract. Cute girl, but nothing spectacular. Then again, Sheets is not the best looking guy on the team either.

 

Back to Brewer baseball. Way to weasel your way out of it Doug.

[stkmtimo]

JenksFan5 - Thanks for the report, that's pretty interesting. Does Sheets have a wife/girlfriend? How is she?

 

Nice work to get out of it, Doug. Back to work in 5 mins so I'll watch/post from there.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Davis with 20 tosses in the 1st. It's a good thing he has a rubber arm, or we'd be seeing Justin Lehr or Rick Helling before too long. Considering how much the pen was worked in the first two games, we need Doug to go a strong 7 today.

[madtownbrew]

A little off topic, but when was the last time the Brewers had a double steal? I can't seem to remember this happening in the recent past?

Ben's wife has been interviewed several times on FSN. She's cute and has a thick southern accent. I believe she just had a baby if I'm not mistaken.

[7rebmun]

Anyone else having problems getting the game on MLB.TV?

[stkmtimo]

I think Doug will be fine, sometimes the 1st inning bothers him. Back to work...go Crew!

I'm pretty sure i remember Pods and Spivey pulling it off last year, but I could be wrong. I doubt it with this year's team, unless Clark and Lee have done it.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Jenks continues to swing the hot stick. I have to think he may have been the July league MVP, with all apologies to Zach Duke, Rich Harden and Barry Zito. He's starting off August the way he did July.

[JenksFan5]

Can the Crew please score some runs for Doug Davis. I hope this is not another one of those 2-1 no decisions where the bullpen gives up a late run and the offense wastes a quality start.

 

Piazza is not that good.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

Nuttin better then walking the pitcher

[7rebmun]

So, I figured out Davis didn't have his stuff an inning ago, when will Yost figure that out?

[DuluthBrew]

What should Yost do, 7rebrum?

[The Mexican Weez]

Walk? Man, I better get back to work or better yet, take a lunch break. This team is hard to watch! (or track through gameday as I do)

[AJAY]

Davis is looking bad right now. His pitch count is already gettting up there. The bullpen is not exactly rested so we need him to step it up and fast.

[JenksFan5]

No harm no foul Doug.

 

But if he continues to pitch from behind, it does not look good for the Crew. Hopefully he will settle down and no, Yost should not take him out already. You cannot overuse the bullpen, which has been less than superior in recent memory anyway.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

another failed bunt attempt...ugh

[bsglorydays]

Can't bunt. Can't throw strikes.

[BrewCrewKid]

All 3 pitches right down the middle and DD can't get the bunt down.

[H0FFY]

I say we spare no expense and go after the best bunting pitchers in the league next year. Or even have three or four pinch bunters on the bench.

[bucksman4]

BUT....they practice bunting "ALL THE TIME" as Manager Yost would say. It sure shows Ned....maybe "all the time" isn't good enough.

 

Thanks Brady....no thanks to Doug....it would be 1-0 if he could execute a bunt.
