Game Thread #9: Reds (5-4) at Brewers (6-2)
by Jeff Sackmann on Apr 10, 2008 10:06 AM CDT
Email
PrintI'll be watching two things today: the Brewers game, and the weather in Queens. If a rainstorm or two gets in the way of me seeing Johan Santana vs. Ben Sheets, I will be one furious Brewers fan.
Anyway, getaway day today, and the rubber game of the series, all starting at noon. Aaron Harang takes on Carlos Villanueva. Ned is sticking to his lineup, notwithstanding protests from Tom H. (No, there's not a law, but unless you think Gabe Gross's true talent level is that of an .091 hitter and Gabe Kapler's is that of a .438 hitter, it's not a bad idea.)
Dusty keeps juggling, with Keppinger back in the 2 slot and Encarnacion and Bako back in the lineup. Last night aside, the conventional wisdom is wrong: Cinci doesn't have all that great of an offense.
- Brewers 4.43
- Reds 4.33
- Brewers WinExp: 55%
Go Brewers!

haudricourt
if you're going to do anything more than follow baseball just causally, and presumably haudricourt does this, you should learn that 11 at bats does not determine how good of a hitter you are. that's like baseball 101.
career splits
gross vs. RHP: .257/.348/.427
kapler vs. RHP .263/.327/.397
the end, no contest.

I sign up for next semester's classes at 1 o'clock...
...and have a meeting with the head of my Major's department at 1:30
BOO to missing the middle of the game:(
If Gross doesn't flub that play last night
Haudricourt doesn't mention Kapler starting at all, despite the offensive disparity.

Gross is stretched in center
I think he's fine in the corners. He's got a good arm.
He's extremely quick and good.
looking at this thread
and your posts over at red reporter, I have a question, meaning absolutely no offense:
are you drunk?
if so, bravo. when you've said wisconsin, you've said it all.

Someone else said this a couple nights ago
But if you listen to Uecker, Dunn's first name is "Bigadam."
It's weird to have a catcher on the team who Ned lets start a day game after a night game.
Obscure baseball records and more at my blog, Recondite Baseball.
the explanation I heard
was that he wanted Corey to feel comfortable and keep getting better an RF. I'm not paraphrasing it that well, but he liked the way he was playing and wanted to keep him there.
Presumably
Gabe Kapler would've got a triple.

And then Kapler would've willed his teammates to drive him in
Just to prove how much less worthless he is than Gabe Gross.

"Oldest College in Wisconsin?"
Carroll College claims to be the oldest college in Wisconsin, however this claim is also held by Beloit College.
Prairieville Academy, which eventually became Carroll College, was established in 1841. Three years later, in summer of 1844, the genesis for Beloit College came in the form of a group of New Englanders calling themselves "Friends of Education," who gathered to discuss the formation of a "frontier college."
The charter for Carroll College – named for Charles Carroll of Carrollton, a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence – was passed into law by the Wisconsin Territorial Legislation on January 31, 1846. Beloit's charter followed shortly on February 2, giving rise to Carroll's claim to be the oldest college in Wisconsin.
Beloit's claim is often phrased "the oldest college in the state in continuous operation," with a particular emphasis on the "continuous operation" aspect. During the 1860s, the American Civil War and financial difficulty caused Carroll College to temporarily suspend operations, while Beloit has offered classes continuously since 1847.
He's extremely quick and good.
Yeah
It's not actually named for Charles Carroll (they wouldn't have named a Presbyterian school after a Catholic), but they don't know who it's named after and they had to say something.
Obscure baseball records and more at my blog, Recondite Baseball.
oddly enough
I had never heard of Charles Carroll before today, and in addition to reading this comment, I arrived at a chapter about him in this book.
Interesting guy.
Also in NCAA division 3, there is John Carroll college in Ohio. That one is *certainly* not named after Charles Carroll.
Also, cheese.

All about Kendall
I'm sure Kendall called the exact pitch that Harang would bunt through. It's all part of calling a good game.
Of course, Johnny Estrada would have called for a pitchout, and then ran to the dugout without tagging the runner.

Got out with only 1 run
not too shabby, plus the run producers coming up

End of inning
Harang bunted through the suicide squeeze and they tagged out Hatteberg, then Harang struck out.

villy
anyone notice villy pitched the first 6 innings with his fastball at 88-90, and pitched the 7th inning with his fastball at 85-87.
kinda a drastic change.
i'm not one of those strict pitch count guys. Pitch counts are a proxy for fatigue, pitching tired is a recipe for serious injury. Pitching tired is also a recipe for getting knocked around.
Josh, if you're out there, i think there is some potential for awesome work around pitch counts and velocity.
When I see villy open the 7th with an 85 mph fastball, it's gotta be a red flag.

Absolutely
Justifiable to lose to Harang with our "no. 4" starter. But you'd like to beat Josh Fogg.
Though maybe the way Cueto pitched, we should have only expected one game in the series anyway. Cincy certainly had the better of the SP matchups going in.
