NLDS Game 2 Open Thread

I never thought I'd be so happy to see Craig Counsell in the line-up.

CF Mike Cameron
2B Ray Durham
LF Ryan Braun
1B Prince Fielder
SS JJ Hardy
RF Corey Hart
3B Craig Counsell
C Jason KendallP
CC Sabathia

The pitching match-up is CC Sabathia (17-10, 2.70ERA, 251K/59BB) vs. Brett Myers (10-13, 4.55ERA, 163K/65BB). This is a huge game. CC gives us a good chance, and it'd be huge to head back to Miller park in a tie with the Phillies.

Go Brewers!

It certainly would be nice if we picked up a base runner earlier than the 5th and scored a least a run before we get to the 7th tonight. 14 of the last 17 runs they have scored have come in the last 3 innings.

quick start would be nice!

E.S.K. said...

what exactly was Cameron waiting for?

Let's go braun

Dang, how close was that? Uke made it seem like it was gone.

E.S.K. said...

nice rip Braunie

E.S.K. said...

mid way up the left field wall...lots of wind again

Anonymous said...

e.s.k. which team do you think benefits more from the wind today?

E.S.K. said...

YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!

E.S.K. said...

Phillies big time, I guess, only because they have more lefty power.

Hart. Contact. Outfield. C'mon...

E.S.K. said...

walks three...Hart swings at the first pitch

Fuck you Hart, you are killing this team

Well done Hart.

Unreal. Corey "Breaks our" Hart. What a slump.

Ok, done with work, off to watch the game. Let's go Crew!

E.S.K. said...

lucky fuckers

E.S.K. said...

god damn it

E.S.K. said...

HUGE STRIKEOUT!!

DannyNoonan said...

HUGE strike out for the huge lefty.

DannyNoonan said...

It would be really nice if we had some bigger bats in the 6, 7 and 8 spot. I really wish 3TO and Kapler weren't hurt. And that Rivera would sometimes come in when we need offense.

E.S.K. said...

oh my God, I thought that was a 500 ft home run!

DannyNoonan said...

Aw shit.

E.S.K. said...

righties are hitting our man hard

Anonymous said...

How the crap did that happen?

DannyNoonan said...

Shit, he walked the pitcher? His command looks a little off.

Anonymous said...

Okay, not all of those were balls.

DannyNoonan said...

This just got out of hand.

E.S.K. said...

wow

E.S.K. said...

right now, Brett Myers is a better batter than Corey Hart.

Pathetic

E.S.K. said...

when you have sure outs at the 6-7-8-9 spots it sure is hard to get out of a hole. Hopefully Fielder and Hardy can go back to back to make it close for a bit.

DannyNoonan said...

Yeah! Corey got on base!

E.S.K. said...

I hate feeling like I care more than half this team

Anonymous said...

This is probably happening because Paul talked shit about Dempster giving up a grand slam.

DannyNoonan said...

This is brutal. So stetter to pitch to Howard?

DannyNoonan said...

Why do we use Gwynn to pinch hit? Why not Brad Nelson at least? This blows.

E.S.K. said...

Gwynn. Nice that the brewers are so confident that they stopped using professional baseball players. That strategy may come back to haunt them

DannyNoonan said...

C'mon now, big inning.

Anonymous said...

Well, that blew.

Sarah Palin is trying to get those of us playing the Sarah Palin debate drinking game drunk. She mentioned "soccar moms" like 5 times, "mavrick" twice and "joe six pack" once, all in her first two answers. And she failed to actually answer the questions. That's like 10 drinks.

So, starting pitching, third basemen, right fielder.

Man, the Brewers off-season needs just keep getting longer.
