    I don't have a problem with testing Chris Carter's arm there.... I still remember during the playoffs that he had a hard time locating throws to 2nd base to start routine double plays.

    He made a good play there.

    Seriously though, anybody off the streets is better than Pettis. Why is he here?

    Pettis was probably waving for Gomez to try for home too.

    Castro beat out the shift by bunting for a base hit earlier, guess Val thought he could do the same.

    He had one in the NY series, IIRC.

    He's attempted a few against the exaggerated shift throughout last year.

    Wow, did the third base coach think the two Brewers ran into each other?

    No, he saw Chris Carter pick up the ball in right field... the same Chris Carter who couldn't throw from 1st to 2nd base during the playoffs.

    Was a calculated risk... failed miserably... but there was some thought to it.

    Brown and Ash need to curtail their Julia talk... its annoying/creepy at all times, but more-so in late innings of close ballgames.

    Good approach to Braun.

    My word, White has had to come off the bag quite a 'bit this game lol.
