Getting smoked by Milwaukee yet again... they give up an inside-the-park homer to PRINCE FIELDER?!?!?! That useless bastard Alex Rios watches a ball roll into the wall, and then refuses to play it because its "trapped under the wall." The umps let the play continue, which turns out to be a good call, because as soon as Rios reaches down to grab the ball it EASILY removes itself. Prince scores with no problem.
Earlier in the game Burnett throws a 3rd consecutive Ball to Branyan... he asks the ump how close it was to the zone by putting two-fingers together about half an inch apart, saying "This close?" and the ump answers by stretching his arms out over a FOOT. Burnett is pissed at the ump, so he decides to pump 3 fastballs down the middle of the plate consecutively. Branyan cranks it for a 3 run bomb.
This team is standing around, is dead in their tracks, and have no emotions. To top if off, it's the 6th inning and DAVID BUSH is throwing a no-hitter. Bush just walked a batter for his first base-runner tonight, spoiling the perfect game... but still NO HITS through 6 innings.
What a joke. Gibbons and JP Riccardi need to go ASAP.
