PrintMilwaukee Brewers at San Diego Padres, Aug 12, 2008 9:05 PM CDT
Maybe I'm just prematurely turning into an old fogey, but there isn't much that can keep me up past midnight these days. Jeff Suppan vs. Cha Seung Baek in the middle of August falls pretty firmly into the category of things that have no shot. I give myself four innings at best.
One possible highlight to keep you watching, though: Mike Adams is firmly entrenched in the San Diego bullpen. (Joe Thatcher is not.)
Game time is 9:05 CT, and here's the BR Game Preview.
Go Brewers!

Spot the problem with this lineup!
2B Rickie Weeks
SS JJ Hardy
LF Gabe Kapler
1B Prince Fielder
RF Corey Hart
3B Craig Counsell
CF Mike Cameron
C Jason Kendall
P Jeff Suppan

Spot the 2 problems with this lineup.
(Hint: it involves the baseball player who is playing 3rd base)
And neck size to baby eating ratio.
Maybe he doesn't want Branyan and Cameron striking out back to back
And changing the lineup order to preclude that possibility makes his head hurt too much.

Counsell is so hot right now
OPS in…
Last 7 days: .276
Last 14 days: .458
That’s not batting average, folks- that is an OPS.
And neck size to baby eating ratio.
and C Coshun has just provided the Kremlin view
patient at the plate, take walks, put the ball in play
Where can I check the number of pitches that a player averages?
Baseball-Reference has it under Pitch Data Summary
Located beneath the Special Batting section on each player page.
Counsell has seen 4.09 P/PA this year. Branyan is at 3.79 P/PA.

Speaking of CC Jr's stats...
I was at the Brewers game yesterday and bemoaned the arrival of CC Jr to the plate with some ducks on the pond. The gf pointed out, however, that since he was 0-3 so far and had a .222 BA, he was obviously getting a hit. And lo and behold, he gets the run scoring double. Don’t give me your fancy OPS stats, I got the awesome predictive power of my gf and batting average.

Is a swinging third strike in the dirt that ricochets off the catcher, hits the batter’s bat on the followthrough and gets knocked far away from everyone, allowing the batter to reach first. Bruce Froemming said it’s legal so long as the batter doesn’t try to do it, so I’m 70% sure it could happen.
