Bottom 9th
3:31 p.m.
McClellan vs. Gerut
Gerut bounces to Pujols...Brewers get bounced three times.
3:29 p.m. 2 Out
McClellan vs. Hart
A long, but not long-enough shot to left center.
3:26 p.m. 1 Out
Reyes vs. Fielder
Wish Fielder was about five batters behind the top of the order. Not like it mattered much as Ankiel took it in left.
Top 9th
3:23 p.m. 3 Out
Smith vs. Pujols
3rd homer of the day? About 15 feet away in dead center.
3:23 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 1st
Smith vs. Rasmus
A bounder up the middle and a rounder 1st comes Rasmus.
3:22 p.m. 2 Out
Smith vs. Schumaker
4-3. Why couldn't the other innings have been so routine?
3:19 p.m. 1 Out
Smith vs. Thurston
Fielder takes it and routinely ends it.
Bottom 8th
3:15 p.m. 3 Out
Motte vs. Braun
The Jeff Reardon look-alike induces a pop-up.

St. Louis 5, Milwaukee 1
Miller vs. Lopez
AT LAST! (Bomb along left field line.)
3:07 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright...nope...Trevor Miller vs. Bourgeious
Sliding catch by Ankiel ends that one. Heck of a catch.
Top 8th
3:06 p.m. 3 Out
Narveson vs. Ryan
Repeat the Harry Caray telephone booth pop-up line.
3:04 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 2nd
Narveson vs. Molina
Slapped to left and it hits the scoreboard for a double...just loped into the base.
3:03 p.m. 2 Out
Narveson vs. DeRosa
"Narveson throwing the at-em ball today." Great stab again by Counsell.
3:01 p.m. 1 Out
Narveson vs. Ludwick
Another GREAT play by Brooks Robinson...I mean Counsell. Snagged a smash out of the air.

3:00 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Escobar
Thus enduth the rally.
2:57 p.m. 2 Out, Runners on 1st and 2nd

Kendall MONSTROUSLY fooled, went around.
2:56 p.m. 1 Out, Runners on 1st and 2nd
Wainwright vs. Gerut
Nice. Ball four. First walk of the game. Maybe some life?
2:55 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 2nd
Wainright vs. Hart
In old County Stadium, that's a home run. At Miller Park, shot down the line is an out.
2:54 p.m. Runner on 2nd
Wainwright vs. Fielder
Ball bounds on one hop over center field fence. First leadoff hitter to get on.
Top 7th Inning

Narveson vs. Ankiel
Love it when bad pitches get swung at.
2:50 p.m. 2 Out
St. Louis 5, Milwaukee 0
Narveson vs. Pujols
He's an equal opportunity home run hitter.
2:49 p.m. 2 Out
Narveson vs. Rasmus
Great looping fly ball...and Hart runs in to make the catch in right center, though Gerut slid for it coming the other direction.
2:47 p.m. 1 Out
Narveson vs. Schumaker
STRIKE THREE CALLED!
Bottom 6th Inning
2:45 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Braun
First-pitch fly to Braun ends another non-rally.
2:43 p.m. 2 Out
Wainwright vs. Counsell
Whiff-fest for Counsell. "This guy dazzles you with an array of off speed sinkers, sliderps."
2:41 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Lopez
The hot dog delivered a blowout win in the Sausage Race. Then, Lopez delivers a looping out to right.
Top 6th Inning
2:38 p.m. 3 Out
Narveson vs. Wainwright
Great curveball ends this inning. That's a rare 1-2-3!
2:36 p.m. 2 Out
Narvgeson vs. Ryan
Bounding ball to Lopez who gets Ryan. Too routine for a witty comment.
2:34 p.m. 1 Out
Narveson vs. Molina
One batter, one K.
Bottom 5th Inning
2:29 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. McGehee
6th inning: no Soup for you! Swingandamiss and McGehee pulled a Bo Jackson, busting the bat over his knee.
2:27 p.m. 2 Out, Runners on 1st and 3rd
Wainwright vs. Escobar
Bouncer to short, and Kendall stop the double play with a great takeout slide. WHOA! Schumaker never touched the bag! Bad miss by the ump.
2:26 p.m. 1 Out, Runners on 1st and 2nd
Wainwright vs. Kendall
Shot up the middle to get two runners on. When was the last time the Brewers had two base runners on vs. St. Louis? The mesozoic age?
2:23 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 1st
Wainwright vs. Gerut
Base hit to left center...at least a little life. Armen does his comment on the speed of the game again...that means we'll be here until 5:00 p.m. for a nine-inning game.
2:22 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Hart
Tired of these low-numbered hit shutouts by St. Louis pitchers. Not gonna change this at bat.
Top 5th Inning
2:20 p.m. 3 Out
Suppan vs. DeRosa
At last...the nighmare is over.
2:19 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 1st
Suppan vs. Ludwick
More damage....up the middle for a base hit. Geez.
2:18 p.m. 2 Out
Suppan vs. Ankiel
Hi fly to Escobar in shallow left. We wanted ho hum. Nope.
2:17 p.m. 1 Out
St. Louis 4, Milwaukee 0
Suppan vs. Pujols
So what was that I said about not pitching to Pujols? A bomb to left-center.
2:13 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 3rd
Suppan vs. Rasmus
Gerut cannot get the ball on a diving attempt...Schumaker scores, Rasmus into 3rd despite Counsell saying he had him.
2:13 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 2nd
Suppan vs. Schumaker
Not this time - a looper to left. Just like the Dalai Lama, as Carl Spackler would say.
2:10 p.m. Runner on 2nd
Suppan vs. Wainwright
Pitcher vs. pitcher, and Wainwright slides it down the left field line. A double for the pitcher? Oh, wait, Ueck says he and Carpenter swing the bat well.
Bottom 4th Inning
2:06 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Fielder
Fielder takes strike three called with a nod of his head and a shrug of his shoulders.
Twitter: AndrewSa888
"Next year the Brewers will make the playoffs. I'm sure of it!" Please, if you're actually Doug Melvin, assure us of that!
2:05 p.m. 2 Out
Wainwright vs. Braun
His .240 average vs. Wainwright drops after a one-hopper to the mound.
2:03 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Counsell
Brooks Robinson...I mean Craig....slow rolls one to Schmaker. Come on, make him do what you did earlier today with fielding magic, not this routine stuff.
Top 4th Inning
1:59 p.m. 3 Out
Suppan vs. Ryan
Lopez, to Escobar, to Fielder. Not Tinker-to-Evers-to-Chance, but it helps.
1:59 p.m. 1 Out, Runners on 1st and 2nd
Suppan vs. Molina
He gets clocked in the left shoulder with Mr. Spaulding.
1:58 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 2nd
Suppan vs. DeRosa
Splits the wickets for a one-out double.
1:56 p.m. 1 Out
Suppan vs. Ludwick
When did Counsell become Brooks Robinson?
Bottom 3rd Inning
1:52 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Lopez
Pujols takes unassisted. Still ho-hum.
1:50 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 2nd
Wainwright vs. Suppan
Pujols pick, sacrifice.
1:48 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 1st
Wainwright vs. Escobar
Escobar beats Wainwright to first while Pujols dived to make a putout and took the play. Oops on Pujols...ends the perfect game.
1:45 p.m 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Kendall
Ryan throws high on the grounder to short, but Pujols has hang time.
Top 3rd Inning
1:43 p.m. 3 Out
Suppan vs. Holliday
As Ueck talks about Keith Hernandez's hair, a HECK of a diving stop at 3rd by Counsell and a great throw to Fielder/
1:42 p.m. 2 Out
Suppan vs. Pujols
He looks so relaxed...Soup doesn't. This time, Gerut took the fly to center.
1:40 p.m. 1 Out
Suppan vs. Rasmus
Suppan with a quick reaction to snag a fast bouncer....knee level pick-up. NICE!
Bottom 2nd Inning
1:38 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Gerut
A tough bouncer but Pujols grabs it no problem.
1:37 p.m. 2 Out
Wainwright vs. Hart
SO good to see him back. SOOO good to see him with power....but warning track power, caught in left-center.
1:34 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Fielder
A change-up screws-up Fielder. That pitched dropped like a fly after I kill it with my newspaper.
Top 2nd Inning
1:31 p.m. 3 Out
Suppan vs. Schumaker
Easy bouncer...no damage. NICE!
1:30 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 2nd
Suppan vs. Wainwright
Squaring up to bunt, he switches to punt, and Fielder bobbles but recovers.
1:28 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 1st
Suppan vs. Ryan
Soup allows a base hit to left. Soup isn't really on right now...do I detect a little run off of Ryan's eye black, like he was crying or something? Aw, there there.
1:26 p.m. 1 Out
Suppan vs. Molina
An easy grounder to short...and the golf claps are highly expressive today. (Hmmm...I wonder where I got that from?)
Bottom 1st Inning
1:24 p.m. 3 Out
Wainwright vs. Braun
An easy grounder to short...and the boo-birds are highly expressive today.
1:22 p.m. 2 Out
Wainwright vs. Counsell
A deep liner bounds to the corner and he goes for three....and he's punched out like Frazier against Foreman. Ken Macha ve. Larry Vanover in an argument, and the ump is getting all of Macha's non-verbal anger after an awful call.
1:20 p.m. 1 Out
Wainwright vs. Lopez
Lopez looks back at the home plate umpire, thinking he fouled off strike three. Uh, nope.
Top 1st Inning
1:17 p.m. 3 Out
Suppan vs. DeRosa
After a steal of 2nd, a pop-up ends the threat.
1:15 p.m. 2 Out, Runners on 1st and 3rd
Suppan vs. Ludwick
As Scott Warras just said, "good God." The pain continues with a liner to center.
1:13 p.m. 2 Out, Runner on 1st
Suppan vs. Holliday
Pujols' bodyguard makes a catch on a tough liner - a leaping stab, looking like a gazelle. Gazelle's can't throw to the plate.
1:11 p.m. 1 Out, Runners on 1st and 3rd
Suppan vs. Pujols
Twice, walking him has cost the Brewers a game thanks to Holliday HR's right afterward. I say you almost ALWAYS pitch to him. More than half the time, he will fail. Heck, he's a baseball player! Ty Cobb failed six out of 10 times and was the greatest batter in history.
This time, Pujols succeeds and produces runners at the corners. Oh well.
1:09 p.m. 1 Out, Runner on 1st
Suppan vs. Rasmus
A 2-2 count begets a 4-2 count, or a walk.
1:06 p.m. 1 Out
Suppan vs. Schumaker
As Producer Armen does his daily Major League impersonation here in the newsroom, Counsell takes in an easy pop-up. I could hear Harry Caray "that wouldn't be a home run in a telephone booth" call.
Pregame
12:27 p.m.
Jeff Suppan takes the mound as the Brewers try to salvage one game against the Cards and Adam Wainwright. Puhleeze, don't intentionally walk Pujols again. That could cost us the game for the third time in two weeks!
