Clayton still can't throw to first.

 

why is the count already 1-1 by the time they get back from commercial?

 

ive noticed this happening before, its kind of annoying.

Lovin' hearing Bob Uecker do the game. Hawk is on mute.

 

Listening to him everyday while going to school there was outstanding. We used to go to the games and sit in the left field bleachers. We would hold up signs that said "Ueckers puckers, we're not leaving til we're heaving" (love the coolege days). He would come on the PA and announce that the puckers were in the stand today.

Yeah, brutal... good outing for him. Now its up to the 'pen. I'm a little surprised by Dotel this early.

Ramirez now credited with a hit on that slow roller to Hardy.

 

Maybe he can give it to Gordon to raise his average to .110-.120?

Dotel is awesome with inherited runners.

Great fielding there Pods.

 

I'm still not sure he's an asset without any defensive ability or the ability to steal a base.

Fielder made it home without oxygen.

Gobble is up. Meaning Ozzie will never let Poreda pitch.

Not really sure why we took out Clayton... was his pitch count really that high?

 

If anything, we should have put Clayton at first and put Dotel in for Fields... and the sad part is, I'm only half joking.

Over 100

102 for Richard. Still would have let him finish the inning. Did not seem to be tiring.

Over 100

 

 

Not to mention the "mental stress" on Clayton having to field two balls on the infield.

 

That probably counts for another 8-10 pitches right there.

Letting Suppan hit...?

Walking Kendall to face Suppan...

 

Interesting...

You're kidding me.

Dotel's trying to walk Suppan now.

Tie game.

The Brewers have a rabbit's foot up their asses.

LOL. If this game doesn't show we're not meant to win this year, nothing will.

DOTEL FALLS BEHIND EVERY HITTER THAT GETS A HIT OFF HIM.

THROW A STRIKE, AND GET AHEAD OF THESE GUYS. UNREAL.

Well, so much for the win for Clayton. Seems like bad things are always due to happen when you start out the inning with that kind of an error.

 

Ozzie always prefers to take the starters out without an opportunity to get a loss, but the "bad" Dotel has returned.

 

The funny thing is he has a great K/IP ratio, he actually was tied for bullpen pitchers in strikeouts with Howell last year, but you feel the same way you do when Jenks is out there in pressure situations...as good as our bullpen is, Linebrink and Thornton have plenty of bad moments, too.

 

But the bullpen is the last area of our team to worry about, I suppose.

My question is why was Pods playing so deep with Suppan at bat?

Why weren't we playing in for Suppan? This s*** is getting ridiculious.

Get him out of there...
