am i the only one who thinks schumaker got fooled on fielder's pop-up? he wasn't running that hard, as if he thought he was gonna run under the ball, but it drifted on him. . . . . .

tie game, 3-3, brewers still threatening.

3 straight strikes

No...

but I’m not the most impartial person in the world, either.

Too bad for Lohse

he did it all today…the offense let him down, too many runners left on today so far.

He’s still sporting a damn nice era even with the 2.

Two games in a row

that shouldn’t even have been really close at all.

Atleast they’ve still got Gagne out there for us.

They're one run away from a sweep of the Brewers

Seriously, there’s only so much complaining I can be doing at this point.

I'm not complaining

I think it’s great we still get to face Gagne.

We’ve dominated the Brewers the last two days. These games should have never been in question.

Gameday Question

I just noticed today that MLB Gameday has a little blue play button by certain plays, where you can click to watch highlights from the game. That’s pretty damn sweet, I have to say.

Does anyone know if this is new, promotional only, or only for certain games, or what? I think it’s great added value to my Gameday subscription, and I hope they keep it up throughout the year.

by blehmann on Apr 17, 2008 3:48 PM EDT reply reply   0 recs

gameday subscription?

The highlights started this year but I don’t think you need a subscription for it.

by enoscountry on Apr 17, 2008 3:50 PM EDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

i dont have subscription

but still can see highlights

by stlagg on Apr 17, 2008 3:50 PM EDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

Doh!

You’re right about the subscriptions – I have a Gameday Audio subscription, but it’s obviously unrelated.

Free content from MLB – how refreshing!

i have seen this on many games this year..it is very nice…and thank you mac

WOW! just watched the replay

and Shumaker easily should have caught Fielders pop up. You can see him not running hard and he even changes directions a little as he nears the ball like he didnt have a good bead on it.

pathetic….game should be 3-2 Cards

by gossard56 on Apr 17, 2008 3:50 PM EDT reply reply   0 recs

it also shows Flores

hit his spot exactly. Fielder got lucky on hitting it and Schu got fooled.

by enoscountry on Apr 17, 2008 3:52 PM EDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

regardles of our other scoring chances

there is no f-ing way Schumaker shouldnt make that catch and this game would still be 3-2

Didn't realize that

but Rico needs to go still I’m afraid. He will be gone whenever Ryan is ready which should be soon.

You just knew he was getting set up for the fastball.

Rico has been scouted. Enjoy the heat kid, because that’s all you’ll see for a while

Why not leave McClellan out there?

It’s not like he looked bad or threw a million pitches, and there’s no idea how long this will last…

Should be 4-0. 3-0 would have been nice.

Not a good game to loose. I think the coaches are handling Kyle correctly. This has been indicative of his career.
