9/22 - Brewers (Gallardo) @ Braves (Smoltz) - FOX

[Smack]

McCann flies out on 1st pitch. 1 down.

[Smack]

Francoeur K's. 2 down.

[E.J.]

Andruw Jones is terrible. What happened to him?

Fat.

[Smack]

Andruw Jones is terrible. What happened to him?

 

14 mil for a .728 OPS is crazy. I think he'll bounce back next year - he has to right?

[Smack]

Corey Hart has quietly turned into a stud.

[Careless]

This announcer reallly does not want to say "no-hitter"

[Smack]

Yeah, I didn't realize it myself until just a minute ago. Brewers hitless through 5.

[genbar]

Smoltz is looking good

[Irrelevant Dude]

This announcer reallly does not want to say "no-hitter"

I noticed... kind of unusual for a national broadcaster.

Yeah, I'd figure a national guy (especially given Fox's attitude) would be going on and on about it

[bcruise]

Didn't Josh Lewin do some Cubs games some years back?

[salukifudd]

Didn't Josh Lewin do some Cubs games some years back?

 

Yes, in 1997.

[kujay]

Oh boy. 2-2, HR by Hardy.

 

So much for the, well, everything.

[BCVM22]

Damn it all, Smoltz.

[Sosa21MVP]

Way to go Smoltz.

[E.J.]

I hate JJ Hardy.

[C.C.]

Damn! They could go and beat Smoltz and Hudson. That's impressive!

[JGalt73]

The Brewers are about to beat both Hudson and Smoltz - the 6th and 9th best pitchers in MLB by VORP.

Don't worry, we still get to face Peavy and Young who have to be high up on that list too!

It's only the 6th.

[genbar]

Very impressive, Brew Crew. But it's not over yet!

Peavy is #1, Young is #18 in MLB VORP. Here's hoping they actually pitch them in the final series...

[Choonch]

I don't understand it. This Braves lineup is stacked yet this is the 3rd game in a row where they are struggling to score against a VERY mediocre Brewers pitching staff. C'mon Braves, pick it up!

I can understand today. Gallardo has been very solid. Came into today with a 21 scoreless innings streak. He's the real deal. After a rough first inning he's settled down with 1 mistake that resulted in the HR.
