Suppan pinch hitting? Good lord.

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

wow suppan can bunt

[Mass Haas]

I'd bring in Vargas next inning.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I love the call on Soup...our pitchers have bunted better than our regs.

[adamb100]

We can still win this pretty easily.

[adambr2]

And now it's a tie game because of Ned Yost. Wow! He better get ripped apart at the post game press conference and removed from office if our playoff hopes don't come to fruition.

Wow, just wow. Counsell and Coco had a much bigger part in this than Yost.

 

 

No, they didn't. We can't expect CoCo to be perfect every night. It's just not going to happen.

 

We needed to get that insurance run in. If Yost called the bunt with 2 strikes, which is beyond idiotic, he's just as much to blame as Counsell for not executing it.

[Glennron]

Maybe Suppan should have pinch hit in the 10th instead of Counsell.

[kalle8]

15 min ago bunting didn't look so simple...

[trwi7]

I'd bring in Vargas next inning.

 

We're going to need him tomorrow when Cappy only goes 3 innings. Sorry just feeling really pessimistic right now.

[SeriesFinale]

Walk to get to Hart, I like it

[Ennder]

Its only the 2nd HR that Cordero has given up this season so while yeah its his fault I can't really complain about it. He's going to give them up at some point.

[pitchleague]

good call to PH for a bunt, but DUH! there's the IBB to Prince.

 

Hmmmmm, who didn't see that one coming?

[MadisonBrewerBlue]

the game is in coreys hands.........

[giffted1]

Why was Counsell bunting with 2 strikes? I'm pretty sure that was Yost's call.

Counsell was bunting with 2 strikes because he couldn't get it down earlier. Just consider holding players responsible for their performance.

[TerraceReserved]

Suppan bunting there was flat out dumb. Ned, you do know that we have 2 lefty mashing hitters on the bench?

[dlk9s]

Cappy we'll do fine. I'll be at the game, giving him some lefty mojo. Plus, it will be my daughter's first ever baseball game. He HAS to win for her, right?

 

[pitchleague]

hope Corey can do it again!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Is Shouse available...rather have a lefty for Chipper/Texeira

[dlk9s]

I have no problem with the bunt at all.

 

[jjfanec]

I thought the bunt was an obvious call

[Oldcity]

Alright gifted, how's this?

 

Counsell did a bad job. He didn't get the bunt down.

 

Yost was very very stupid for keeping the bunt on with two strikes.

[trwi7]

A bloop a blast I don't care what happens get this run home.

[endaround]

Why was Counsell bunting with 2 strikes? I'm pretty sure that was Yost's call.

Counsell vs LHP

.263

.280

.543

Mench vs LHP

.352

Consider holding the manger responsible for his performance.

[pitchleague]

maybe Joey Devine will have some more of that "lots of homers in his debut season" magic today like he did in 2005 (and 2006 too?)

[trwi7]

Dang Hart was just robbed. And now Jenkins can be un-clutch again. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif
