Percival

with the K. Cubs down to their last out.

Looks like Huntsville is going to need some late game heroics

Still down 4 in the bottom of the 8th.

Previously...

Now we’ll have to tell him that we’d rather not play in his front yard anymore – he should go to a public park! I had no fear of him breaking a window at my parent’s house about 300 feet away from his yard, but I’ll have to change my tune now.

Ironically

I was told this by my neighbor while playing yardball with his cousin while in Elementary school.

Let's hope

Whatever deal the Cubs have made with the devil means that after this year, they’ll have another 100 years of suffering.

Post Game Trenni-Braun interview

Must be a reason it’s a shoulders up camera angle.

His head was bobbing just a little too much too...

Wohoo

The Wallbangers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!

No way...

we won a game…and the Cubs lost? Bizarro MLB right now!

This simutax makes me feel like a koala bear crapped a rainbow in my brain!

by captainmurphey on Jun 17, 2008 9:41 PM CDT   0 recs

don't forget

the Counsell HR, Yost removing Parra at the right time, and the Royals just beat the Cards

by molitorfan on Jun 17, 2008 9:44 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Feels like the first time in about 3 weeks

that we’ve actually gained a game on the Cubs…flag time!

It looks like

the Crew will be the only NL Central team to win tonight.

In other news

It looks like Nelson Cruz is putting up some decent numbers down in Texas’ Triple -a affiliate.

"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."

I like that picture

It looks like Counsell’s jersey says “Beers”

Which is great, because that of course is what we fans consume several of over the course of the game

by Tick on Jun 17, 2008 10:48 PM CDT   0 recs

Ahhh, what a game!

I was there tonight. It was glorious!

Oh, and I am not the proud new owner of an autographed Yovani Gallardo jersey.
Just thought I’d brag a little.
Dude better become a hall of famer now.

So was I

I was the one in the Brewers hat.

(Seriously, I was there.)

hey, I think they showed you on TV!

the blue brewers hat?

Also, cheese.

All right, I'm famous!

If the guy they showed had a beer too, that was definitely me!

Featured Poll

Poll
Who is the Brewers' top prospect?
  • Brett Lawrie - Cana-DUH!
  • Mat Gamel - A great pure hitter who could potentially play a position of need.
  • Alcides Escobar - The Brewers sorely need his defensive wizardry and contact-hitting approach. He also solves the 3B hole by shifting J.J. over.
  • Jonathan Lucroy - The best catching prospect in the system by virtue of the fact that he can actually catch. His hitting numbers at Brevard are very good on the face of it, but even better after accounting for Space Coast Stadium.
  • Angel Salome - He's leading a Huntsville team that's loaded with prospects in all three slash stats, and he has the tools to be a good defensive catcher.
  • Jeremy Jeffress - The only real pitching prospect in a sea of hitters, Jeffress could potentially ease the pain of losing two aces by blossoming into one himself.
  • Carlos George - Hey, Derek Jeter can't play defense either.
