Phillies-Brewers Game Thread

[Retroram52]

Anyone else watching the Brewers telecast ? Their announcer (or I guess the stat guy) seems totally incompetent. They keep saying things like "the Phillies have hit into the most double plays in the league, so hopefully they'll hit into one here" (btw the Phils have hit into the least dps in the league) and "Marlon Byrd is second to Giancarlo Stanton in HRS, RBIs Runs" and some other things. (he is tied for 2nd in homeruns but the rest there are several players in between him and Stanton)

And btw, I'm not talking about Eucker- it's some other tool.

No I am not watching the Brewer's telecast Cedrique but any announcer that thinks the Phils have hit into the most dps is definitely an idiot when, as you stated, they have hit into the least. That is one of our strengths.

Sometimes it takes KK 4 or 5 innings to warm up.

Yea I noticed that.

Finally, a Dom bomb.

 

[Retroram52]

Wonders never cease. A Dom Bomb appears!!

 

[Retroram52]

The Phillies have done a great job in working over Peralta tonight. His pitch count is way up.

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like KK is heating up as you predicted jvett.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere is 2 for 2 tonight and remains hot.

This must be the LSD kicking in... Ben Revere didn't really hit a ball to the warning track did he?

True. Ben is juiced up for the run to third place.

 

[Retroram52]

Just squeaked by Asche. We have to shut 'em down here.

 

[Retroram52]

What the hell is Utely doing? That is his second base hit miss.

 

[Omar 382]

I must say, Revere is turning in a decent season. He might be a valuable player if he played left field on a team with guys like McGwire and Sosa hitting behind him.

 

[jvett77]

KK needs to deal with a .327 hitter.

 

[Omar 382]

I loathe Chase Utley.

Neil Walker and Scooter Gennett for life!

 

[Retroram52]

KK is struggling with his cutter again but gets out of the side with a pop-up.

 

[Retroram52]

Hey WW. Looks as though you have made a return from your self-imposed exile. I agree. Gennett is an excellent second baseman.

 

[Retroram52]

Let's add a couple more runs for KK. Howard is aboard with the walk.

 

[Omar 382]

Hey WW. Looks as though you have made a return from your self-imposed exile. I agree. Gennett is an excellent second baseman.

I had to find out who I really was. Turns out I'm hopeless without your timely updates and Jvett's player months lost data.

 

[jvett77]

Nice double, Asche.

 

[Retroram52]

Asche is hitting all sorts of objects tonight-the third base bag, now the stands, and he gets a double out of it and Howard sits on third.
