For a tie game that was started by Suppan
Can we get the dancing animals?

my parents were there
they left, but to be fair my dad has to get up at 4:30

And that's why I didn't leave when the Pads were up by how many runs before Melvin Went Crazy.

could still happen

If Laynce Nix was half the player for the Brewers that he's been against the Brewers...
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
Damn, that's a triple if he misses that
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
My thoughts exactly
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
This is about the time when Dusty would normally start warming Aaron Harang...
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
Is Mark Prior still available?
Dusty didn’t get all his innings out of him yet
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
Why do you assume Dusty's not going to do that?
He’s had, what, two days to recover from surgery? Should be plenty of time.

Public Humiliation
I would just like to publicly apologize. I went with a group of 10 friends tonight, and we all left about the 7th inning. I didn’t realize this was still a game until literally 10 minutes ago. I called all of them, and they all had the same, “Bull***!” reaction when I told them to put the game on.
In my defense, I get up in about 5 hours for work, but that’s no excuse.
GO FREAKING BREWERS!

Reminds me of the Red Sox fans in Game 5 (6?) of the ALCS last year
They lost all credibility for being good fans when they were streaming out of the game, only for the Sox to come back from seven runs down and win the game.
by Brendanukkah on Aug 25, 2009 10:45 PM CDT up reply actions
Not saying you lose credibility
It’s much different leaving a late August game between two scrub teams and leaving a playoff game. One is forgiveable.

I stayed for the entire Padres game
when DM went nuts afterward. So I have sat through some truly awful baseball in my 20 game pack.
Still, you are right to call me out.
I don’t deserve baseball. In January I’ll be begging for it.

Coffee Brewin' tonight
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
Should Coffey hit for himself to open the bottom of the 11th?
He’s probably good for another inning, if not more.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
Not if this at-bat keeps up...
but I say yes

McCalvy's twitter
AdamMcCalvy Interesting ninth inning for 3B coach Brad Fischer. Untested arm in LF, Braun on the bases. I would have sent him, too.
Thanks for the warning.
Now I can skip the JS tomorrow.

Well, go to the website for Anthony's chat transcript.
I made it two questions in before he LOL’ed for the first time. It was delightful.
I can't.
I officially began boycotting Witrado’s work when he claimed to have witnesses things he didn’t actually see during the interviews he did after the incident with Fielder outside the Dodgers clubhouse.

Coffey walk off HR?
Unlikely…..but love to see it happen
"My name is Jason Kendall, and I am here to murder your season. Prepare to die 2009 Brewers." - molitorfan
That would make my season I think
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
If TC hit a walk off homer ...
and sprinted around the bases Warrior-style, I think I’d lose it completely.

Got under it, was a little too eager
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
as long as he doesn't bunt into a DP
like Brian Wilson did last night. (with Tim Lincecum heading to second, because he pinch ran for Molina.)
that would be incredibly difficult
leading off an inning
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
two pitchers making the outs in a DP? that can't happen very often...
dickie_thon: Third baseman Bill Hall / Watches the third strike go by / Gamel grabs his glove
Coffee
At least he might beat out an IS if he gets a squiber. He’s got mad wheels.
by SgtClueLs on Aug 25, 2009 10:54 PM CDT via mobile reply actions

with that sprinting towards him, the first baseman would probably wet himself

I really, really was supposed to get to bed early tonight
stupid Brewers – my sleep schedule hasn’t been the same since the West Coast swing
that trip absolutely killed me too

It feels like we've known about Lopez's injury for 20 minutes
yet McCalvy, in the press box, is still uninformed?
“No word from the Brewers about Lopez leaving the game. I don’t think you double switch to gain one spot in the order.”
Granted, I'm only 1/2 paying attention to the radio, but I don't think they mentioned Lopez being injured, either.

Macha'd
When the announcers have spent the entire inning talking about how he has NEVER pitched this much, that’s a sign.
They don't look at statistics every day like Macha does though

With the pitcher up 3rd,...
no bench and not much bullpen left after the crappy Suppan start, I don’t blame Macha for this one.
He did not have many good options.
