Game 79 Overflow Thread

If anything, the 6th inning should show us that the game isn't entirely out of reach (bad Tyler Greene GIDP aside). That said, this team seems to invent new ways to take themselves out of the game on a nightly basis. Can't score runs? With Carpenter on the mound they score 3 (I don't follow DanUp's fancy writing rules about numbers being typed out) but the defense unravels (well Ankiel's defense at least) to allow a bunch of bloops, bleeders and blasts for San Francisco.
As always, be careful with your comments. The game threads are a little more casual but the community guidelines still apply.

I would enjoy a line up of
C – Molina
1B – Pujols
2B – Thurston (I guess, better than T. Greene)
SS – Ryan
3B – DeRosa
LF – Schumaker
CF – Rasmus
RF – Ludwick
I’d like to see that lineup everyday for a month and see the results.

OT: Cards fans from a Brewer fan's perspective...
I’m on vacation in an area outside of both the Brewers and the Cards’ home markets. I’ve been wearing my Brewer hat every day, and on 3 separate occasions I’ve been approached by Cards fans who noticed my hat. All three were very cool folks and I enjoyed talking to them. The last conversation ended with a “see you in the playoffs” from the Cards fan, and a “hey, anyone but the Cubs” from me, with smiles on both sides.
Maybe you guys aren’t so bad after all… :)
