Does that mean Hardy will get 3 RBIs this game?

Half a league, half a league, half a league onward, all in the valley of death rode the Brewer's bullpen.

Beltran's single went right off Hoffpauir's glove

Guy was in the middle of everything.

Optimism

If Stetter gets McLouth here, he’ll have to be PH for in the bottom of the inning and then Adam LaRoche will get to face whatever righty is called on to pitch the 11th. Maybe it’s Dale’s way of challenging the team to score.
