6/27 Brewers (Jackson) vs. Z (and the Cubs) at 7:05 CST WCIU

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Highlights from the Brewers TV broadcast team:

 

1) Can't understand why Dusty would be on the hot seat

2) Seems like Neifi is always on base (tough out)

3) Do not understand why Oakland would be shopping Zito

 

It's only the 2nd, boys. Slow down.

1. It was his opinion that it was mostly the injuries not just Dusty

2. Seems like Neifi is always on base...against the Brewers, which is true

3. Didn't hear that one

[genbar]

c'mon i wanna see some crooked numbers by the baby bears!

[Friendly Confines]

crooked numbers?? we haven't done that in over 3 games; I'd be satisfied with getting a runner to 3rd at this point

[genbar]

yeah that's what i meant.. a man on the hot corner is a crooked number in cub terminology.

1. That was the 1st time. They then said Dusty isn't batting 1-9.

2. Perception is a funny thing -- he might have a 333 OBP this year, but it was 260 for the 3 years prior to this one

3. Um, nothing.

[ManCrushOnNomar]

seems like there's way too many games on WCIU this year.

Well he does have a career .353 OBP vs. Milwaukee.

[Neuby]

terrible Baker should have thrown a fit and get tossed or ARam someone show freaking fire already.

[da bears]

Well thats extremely typical.

What happened?

[TruffleShuffle]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the Cubs will lose this game.

[bobbyd20]

9 up, 9 down.

 

I guess we don't have the book on this guy yet either?

[Tim Burr]

How about a "perfect" game for the rookie so Baker can tip his hat!

[YearofDaCubs]

Baker needs to be fired immediately. For the love of God somebody fire him!!!

That's probably the kind of meaningless stat that Dusty looks at when filling out a lineup card.

 

Nevermind that the guy pitching is someone Neifi has never faced. When Neifi sees that Brewer uniform on the mound, he suddenly becomes Barry Bonds. :roll:

 

When statisticians argue over the worst hitter in the modern era, Neifi is part of the conversation.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Only stat you need to know is The Brewers are up 2-0.

[Irrelevant Dude]

0

Zach Jackson is pitching like Cy Young. Who couldn't have predicted that, however? Pierre has a 4th inning infield hit off the 3b.

[Mark Priors Calves]

So, these are what the game threads become without Fred?

[ToupeeOnFire]

I'm pulling for a shut-out tonight.

 

Just when you can't imagine the Cubs getting any lower, they seem to invent new ways. Getting shut out by Zach Jackson (Zach Jackson?!?) might finally be the straw that breaks the camels back.

[BigbadB]

There's a useful stat. 5 ground balls to Koskie so far, courtesy of the idiots in the Brewers broadcast booth.

[bobbyd20]

If I have to listen to the Brewers announcers, I wish it was Uecker and not these guys. They make "watching paint dry" seem exciting compared this game.
