9/19/2007 Milwaukee (Bush) at Houston (Gutirrez) 7:05 CDT

[StatPipes]

well he didnt look into the dugout, but no need to reset that whole situation

[And That]

I know Prince can't do his magic every time, but it would have been nice to get something there. Why couldn't they have walked him again?

[1992casey]

It's a Prince Fielder baby picture.

[The Ignitor]

I still have an uneasy feeling right now. This game is just waiting to be blown open by one side or the other. Which is the same feeling I get in the Cubs game. Let's just hope that it is us and Cincy busting down the door.

[Menotti80]

i am knocking on wood when im typing this, but it looks like the "Good Bush" has shown up

 

on that note, he should have a short leash starting next inning with the top of the order...

[Brewcrewin07]

Bush MUST come out after this inning Ned. You can see he's starting to tire. DO NOT press your luck. Remember, you said you would manage every game like it's the last from here on out. Well, stay true to that and pull Bush. You got 5 very good innings out of him. Be thankful for that, and put this team in a position to win this game.

[Menotti80]

hit and run here?

[Menotti80]

i say if he gives up 1 hit or walk, pull him

 

and that was a TERRIBLE CALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[And That]

What more could you want out of Corey Hart this season? Hitting .300, 31 doubles, 8 triples, 21 home runs, 22 stolen bases, excellent (for the most part) defense in CF and RF.

[The Ignitor]

Someone said they want Dunn next season. I'll I want is to clone Hart. Someone with decent power, speed, and average. We've got enough big boppers who tend to strike out a bit too much to add Dunn to this lineup.

[rluzinski]

If Bush gives up a run this inning, we should pretend that the bullpen never would have.

[Brewcrewin07]

Ok Ned, get someone up and throwing right now in case Bush gets into trouble, you don't have to wait until the damage has already been done.

[rluzinski]

Anyone else notice Biggio REALLY try to get hit by that inside pitch? Better luck next time.

[Glennron]

He would basically be replacing the Jenkins/Mench platoon though wouldn't he? Dunn's average is close enough to those two, plus he's got about 12 more home runs plus a much higher OBP. I know I wouldn't mind him.

 

Regarding the actual game it's nice to see Bush grooving.

[dlk9s]

If Bush gives up a run this inning, we should pretend that the bullpen never would have.

I concur. And Anthony Dilweg most definitely should have been the Packers' starting QB the whole time he was on the roster.

 

[brewcrewman17]

Anyone else notice Biggio REALLY try to get hit by that inside pitch? Better luck next time.

 

He's realized he's only got so much time left to try to break that HBP record so he's really going for it.

[Menotti80]

oh god this AB scares me...

[dlk9s]

MLB.com Gameday showed that ball over the fence. I'm glad I didn't have to watch that.

 

EDIT: Based on the reactions here, Gameday did not exaggerate.

[rluzinski]

Hart just giving his body up for the team. That was just amazing.

[jason21nl]

holy crap what a catch hart!

[Menotti80]

COREY!!!

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

what a great catch from hart

[thablingster]

That was an awesome catch.

[And That]

Corey Hart is a man's man.

[timothyw80]

That is why I watch baseball!
