Church has been hit quite a few times this season.

Considering the hit and run was on that really was a nice DP -- Church on board - HBP -  Please score some runs!

Did anyone notice that Braun's home run swing in the first looked a lot like Kearns' every swing? Except that he seemed in total control throughout the hitting zone.

The difference is the bat speed - Braun's hands seem so much quicker - I'm listening to the radio guys - and they were just talking about Kearn's "bat speed" - and how he's just not getting the speed he needs ... the swings do look similar though - Braun so far looks like the real deal - reminds me of stature of Nick Markakis ...

Also, Kearns body seems out of control during his swing, which may explain why he's lacking bat speed, while Braun moved his hands through the hitting zone and his head remained steady.

I was thinking about listening to the game on the radio myself. I've been feeling dizzy all afternoon and I thought it would give my eyes a break but I don't think i can do it   :-[

Maybe Simontacchi can do something to neutralize his own mess.

No playing around at all last night. Just haven't been well most of today. Aren't you in the medical profession saltydad? BTW, were you at the game on Wednesday?

The Brewers must've been tryin to recreate Richie Sexson when they saw Cory Hart. They have similare bodily builds. Both are tall and slim.

Yeah, a LPN and now in school for my RN. No, wasn't there; wish I was. Someone impersonating me again? Like in that "redneck" toilet shot?

Yeah I saw someone that looked a lot like you. Can I send you a PM asking you a question?

OK one more inning with no damage. Let's get the offense rolling.

Escobar has been on the DL for quite some time now. He tweaked an ankle but has been playing in the minors for a few days now.
