Game #111: Fogg vs Vargas

by Rox Girl on Aug 6, 2007 6:02 PM MDT in Rockpile

The Brewers come into town desperate to hold onto their torrid start and keep the National League Central division from the upstart Cubs. The Cubs come into town next. Both squads will be looking for the Rockies to do them the favor of winning against their opposition but laying up against themselves. I think the Rockies should play no favorites and win indiscriminately every day this week.

Go Rockies!

Pumping Braun

Braun is having an oustanding offensive season. But, why does the Denver media continue to think he's a good fielder? They once again said he was a good fielder on the pre-game tonight. Have they watched him play, or looked at his stats. His fielding percentage is under .900.

Let us hope dearly

that Good Fogg has arrived to the park tonight, and that the offense gets going quickly.

Nice shot, Brad!

I guess he noticed Atkins was creeping up on him.

It looks like everyone has put

the Braves' series behind them and have responded appropriately.

Yeahhh!

Well, Hawpe parked one, of course Holliday needed to reciprocate.

Slow night here, is everyone at the game/otherwise occupied?

Hawpe learned that from Taveras

Oh jeez

Fogg, I TOLD you that I did not want to see those from the Brewers. Keep them to solo shots, if you have to give them up at all.

Judging on past events

Fogg will give up a homer this inning.

Matt Jr.

Ole Matt Holliday Junior just got on base, eh?

He really needs a hair-cut.

Jeez, Josh

Do not begin your imfoggination.

The big bats accomplish nothing

for the Brewers.

to someone besides us.

Nice escape artistry, Fogg.

Only 67 pitches? Wow.

Great outing

Great outing for Fogg (assuming that he is done...he might not be).

Tulo's errors...

...I'm not watching, but am I reading that correctly in that he has had errors on back-to-back plays in the top of the ninth?

Up in the Rockies

by rockiesfan06 on Aug 6, 2007 9:24 PM MDT reply actions

Yes, you read that correctly

Fortunately Corpas got a game-ending DP anyway.

Oy

The announcers were talking and talking about how Tulo should win the Gold Glove, and then that happens -- they jinxed him something fierce. But oh well, all's well that ends well, we won.

much love

for fogg. gave up 2 massive bombs and had a handful of other balls hit hard, but he got out of trouble when he needed to and for the most part kept traffic off the basepaths. just the kind of start he needs to have consistently to give the team a chance at making a run.

rockies in october.

by LarryB303 on Aug 6, 2007 9:36 PM MDT reply actions

Yeah

If we can get that kind of effort from Fogg consistently down the stretch this team will be in great shape. Hats off to him tonight, he pitched a hell of a ballgame.

What are your guys thoughts on Tulo? Do you think he's hit a wall, or just going through a rough stretch right now? I'm not worried about him yet, just wanted to get some of your thoughts.
