Around SBN: Holy War Week Brings out the Worst in Fans

Game Thread #22: Phillies (11-11) at Brewers (13-8)

It's Jeff Suppan vs. Jamie Moyer at 12:05 CT.  Just like I always say: The only thing better than a lefty is a decidedly Suppan-like lefty.  The Phillies have a huge offense, even with Rollins out, so it wouldn't be a surprise if the runs really add up this afternoon.

One fun fact, in light of Suppan's start today and Mark DiFelice's strong outing for Nashville this week. ZiPS projects Suppan for a 4.76 ERA this year. DiFelice? 4.77.

Here's the BR Game Preview, and assuming the same lineups as last night, Project-a-Tron says:

  • Brewers 5.7
  • Phillies 5.4
  • Brewers WinExp: 57%

Let's go crew!

(and please, website, keep working!)

It doesn’t know that Mark DiFelice hasn’t met the Pope.

1-0 Brewers

RBI single by Braun.

He's extremely quick and good.

Weeks blows the chance to turn the fourth straight DP

Just kidding. Nice range, Rickie.

He's extremely quick and good.

Suppan pitching extremely well.

Really keeping the ball down in the zone. Getting a lot of grounders here which, obviously, helps a lot for the double plays.

Man another out on the basepaths

We had been so good about that recently. Not today.

I checked probably 20 times today

when at work… got frustrating… wanted to share my opinion so many times today! Atleast I had my MLBtv… I can’t stand the JSOnline game thread. Hopefully one of these days we can actually have the site up during the game… any word on why the site has continuously been down recently?

The designated hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free throws.

This site is pissing me off.

Should have flooded Lordz of Vengeance for the game thread.

That would have been awesome.

In fact, I’d like to propose that as the contingency plan.
