05.09.08 – Cardinals vs. Brewers

by on May 9, 2008 · 23 comments

I got a late start on this one – joining MLB.tv in the top of the 2nd, Cardinals up 1-0 and Troy Glaus just got hit with a pitch…

EDIT: Hey hey! Albert hit one out! Looks like he only needed a few innings off, not a whole game.

Writing about the Cardinals and other loosely associated topics since 2008, I've grown tired of the April run-out only to disappoint Cardinal fans everywhere by mid-May. I do not believe in surrendering free outs.

Nice base hit by Ank – 2 on, no outs – great hustle by Glaus to get to 3rd.

Heh. The FSN Wisconsin announcers just said that “…like Ned Yost, Tony LaRussa batting the pitcher eighth…”

As if Ned is a pioneer…

Once again. That is why PITCHERS HIT EIGHTH.

PHE May 9, 2008

Iz2! That is a great at bat for him.

PHE May 9, 2008

Bah, should’ve had more there. Schu hits one on the nose but right at the Pillsbury Dough Boy ™.

Need Wellemeyer to throw strikes…

PHE May 9, 2008

Excellent inning by Wellemeyer. I’m going to have to take back my comments about him going to the pen!

PHE May 9, 2008

I’ve thought this for a long time, but haven’t had the outlet – Laz Diaz is one of the worst MLB umpires. Book it.

PHE May 9, 2008

Glaus won’t come out for the bottom…here comes the Brendan Ryan show again.

PHE May 9, 2008

Wellemeyer – looks good. No jinx.

PHE May 9, 2008

From the Brewers’ telecast “…except for the walk, Parra has retired 7 in a row.”

Um, what? Walks don’t count now?

PHE May 9, 2008

Holy Brendan Ryan. Yikes.

PHE May 9, 2008

I don’t even know what to say about this.

I can only imagine what Brendan Ryan is thinking.

PHE May 9, 2008

that was ball four

PHE May 9, 2008

What in the blue hell is happening right now? I pray that Glaus is not out any extended period of time.

PHE May 9, 2008

Kendall should be out too. If it is illegal for a fielder to throw his glove at a ball, it should be, likewise, illegal for a player to throw his bat at a pitch because the hit-and-run is on.

PHE May 9, 2008

C’mon boys – we need to capitalize here.

PHE May 9, 2008

Dangit – Molina needs to be on his horse there.

PHE May 9, 2008

Why doesn’t Tony make a rule to have a guy up around the 6th inning or so with these “starters”?

PHE May 9, 2008

Nice work by the middle of the order here with 2 outs.

PHE May 9, 2008

Nice scoop Albert!

PHE May 9, 2008

Miles at 3B – fascinating. And makes an out.

PHE May 9, 2008

ANK! Strokes of Jimmy out there…

PHE May 9, 2008

Isringhausen has to go.

Something has to be done.

I can’t even put my feelings into words.
