Cincinnati Reds at Milwaukee Brewers, Sep 10, 2008 1:05 PM CDT
Call me a wild-eyed optimist, but I see one clear silver lining in all of this: At least we're not losing to the Pirates.
Today's matchup is Bronson Arroyo and CC Sabathia.
Game time is 1:05 CT, and here's the BR Game Preview.
Go Brewers!

Lineup
Durham & Counsell in against the righty, Kapler starts for Hart. Following Brandon Phillips’ injury last night, Andy Phillips starts at second base for the first time in his major league career. No doubt he’ll still put Weeks to shame.

Yeah
But he also enters games as a pinch-runner a heck of a lot (27 times now I think). Combine that with the fact he’s pinch-run for their DH fairly often, so they don’t have take him out after he’s done on the bases and he doesn’t lack for opportunities.

That is one of the things I really hate about Yost. It’s like if he sits a guy for the day, that guy is dead to him (with the exception of Prince Fielder)
We've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!

Every Brewers starter has been on base today
Braun is the only one without a hit.

You know what's funny is that I didn't even realize until just now that Counsell started today
Much less got a hit.

I just how legitimately satisfied each of them looks
They aren’t faking those smiles for the camera. They are THRILLED about that sandwich.

Yeah, but
Unless they’re going to have a Lady and the Tramp spaghetti moment, only one of them gets to eat it.

This is what I just got from my Google alert set for Lee Haydel
One lee haydel speed had their founding reception underwater. … I like this lee haydel speed despite some spastic vinegars and culturing goofs. …

His culturing goofs are certainly something to keep an eye on...

Thank
the Reds defense today. Only two earned runs. But, hey, it’s a weiner.

I feel that you should thank David Weathers
And Dusty’s harebrained notion of “preserving the integrity of the race.”

Last time was July 24 in St. Louis after Braun loved it.
