Post-Game 48 Thread: Brews Frustrate Blues

Heat fans leave earlier than Dodger fans. They must have to go home and eat some faces
BREWERS 3, DODGERS 2

The Dodger Stadium crowd booed Ryan Braun lustily, but that's about all the trouble the Brewers encountered today. In the sixth inning, Aaron Harang did himself in by pulling James Loney off the bag on a routine throw to first. The Brewers chipped away for the two runs that gave them the eventual win. The Dodgers' best look at the game came in the third, when Loney came up with the bases loaded and two out. I won't even go into how that ended.

Shaun Marcum (Marcum? I hardly even know 'um) exited after seven innings of one-run ball and Jerry Hairston Jr. had an RBI in the eighth, but the Brewers' 'pen held it together.

Dodgers (32-16) end up going 9-5 sans Matt Kemp, who returns tomorrow, and not one day too soon.

Notes on Angels v Yankmes

1) Russell Martin is thin as a rail.

2) Martin is a terrible batter this season.

3) Jason Isringhausen is not only still alive but also pitching for the Angels.

You mean the Russell Martin who just tied up the game?

(prepares for surliness)

Dusty Baker said...

He did. He's still having a terrible season. Did you note that he swung at that pitch with his eye closed - he had no idea what he was doing with that swing.

We were 7-2 without kemp but ended up being 9-5. Oh well, let's get this train back on the rails.

Steve Sax said...

Let's go, Angels

Marcum? You brought him.

Dusty Baker said...

Say what, Sax?

Hideo Nomo said...

I'm gonna go ahead and say 10-5 without Kemp, since they scored 10 runs after he was pulled from his last game.

I don't mind signing Oswalt for big money. Bring it.
