Game Thread #130: Pirates (57-71) at Brewers (74-55)

Pittsburgh Pirates at Milwaukee Brewers, Aug 23, 2008 6:05 PM CDT


Hey, look, I posted a game thread!

Matchup tonight is Tom Gorzellany and Jeff Suppan.  The last time Gorzo faced the Brewers was also the last time he pitched in the big leagues.  It didn't go well, and precipitated his demotion.  Let's hope he didn't figure too much out in Indianapolis.

Game time is 6:05 CT, and here's the BR Game Preview.

Go Brewers!

So with McLouth & Doumit out and Bay & Nady traded...

This is the what the Pirates bring to battle:

N. Morgan CF
J. Wilson SS
B. Moss LF
A. LaRoche 1B
D. Mientkiewicz RF
A. LaRoche 3B
F. Sanchez 2B
R. Chavez C
T. Gorzelanny P

Not exactly a broadside.

Weeks bunt attempt

Does that mean his thumb is still hurting? Base hit … maybe not.

Nice job, Corey

I thought that ball might drop. Moss ran a looooooong way.

We gained a half a game on the Cards. Now we just need to win and make it a full one.

A few clutch hits, and we could’ve made it a Turnbow.

It’s good to have a little bit more cushion.

The post-game thread

is open. I can only hope it will be able to contain all of the excitement that you’d expect from Brewer/Pirates on a Saturday night.

"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"
