Rumor is that Gabby is not 100%. Any truth to that?

Some of the people from Nederland were saying he was really working his shoulder early in the game Wednesday and appeared to have some discomfort. It was obviously not too bad beacuse he threw a complete game.  They just said he pointed at his shoulder and motioned to the dugout.

Who picked the 1 game series?

[RIP09]

If Gabby is healthy I think Crosby has a chance. I would assume Wellbrock will be pitching for Brenham. This will be a great pitching matchup. Might come down to who makes fewer mistakes. Reminds me a little of last years matchup between Brenham and BH. Brenham ended up winning 3-2 on an error in the btm of the 7th.

Should be a good one.....I would say Brenham 4-3

I'm sure Crosby did.

[RIP09]

Crosby would be my guess as well. Brenham is loaded with pitching. 3 game series would be to their advantage.

[RIP09]

[b]Cubs sweep Kyle Lehman[/b]

Brenham posted two run-rule victories in the series, winning Game 1 by a 14-2 margin, and then blasting the Lobos 11-1 Friday night at Blinn. Three first inning home runs put the game out of reach early in last nights game.

Game 1

WP-Ty Schlottmann  (CG, 5 innings, 4H, 10K) 
HR- (B) Erich Weiss (2)

Game 2                                                           

WP-Chase Wellbrock (CG, 6 innings, 2H, ??K's)
HR- (B) Erich Weiss (3), Chance Bolcerek ( Scott Weinschenk (2)

The Cubs now move on to face Crosby in a one-gamer on Friday night at Langham Creek.

Sounds like the Cubs are ready.

WHAT EVER, CROSBY WILL BE READY AS WELL...THOSE BOYS LIVE FOR THIS....LET'S GO BIG RED

Brenham is loaded this one will get ugly

[bandit]

DON'T THINK SO SCOOTER...CROSBY'S LOADED TOO...WITH HEART.....CROSBY 6 BRENHAN 4

[Big Stick]

Brenham  9-2.

[BrenhamFan]

Brenham- 9-3

[sitsinstands]

brenham 12-0

[bandit]

hey sitsinthestands, would'nt bet the house on that one

[retiredoldcoach]

My prediction is Brenham 10-1.  Just too strong for Crosby.  They flipped Brenham for one game for a reason.  They are rolling the dice to try and put together a perfect seven innings.  It happens in baseball.  The team that plays best on game day wins.

I am not downing Crosby, (I am touting Brenham) but Brenham gets the check mark in every aspect of the game.  1) Playing basically at home.  (summer and fall lands them in Langham Creek) 2) Brenham tradition 3) Coach with over 500 wins 4) they are better at all nine positions 5) team speed 6) more power 7) higher team batting average (don't know Crosby's but I bet it is not higher than .390 8) strength of schedule

I may be wrong.  I have only kept up from afar after seeing both teams play early.  Tried, but can't think of any category that Crosby would receive the check mark?

Huge underdog!

And will have two bats back.  As with the Vidor game, I think the game will come down to who makes fewer mistakes.

1) The .384 batting average was before scoring thirty runs last weekend on thirty? hits.
2) If JG pitched against the same opponents that CW has pitched against, he would not have 92 K's.
3) If CW pitched against the same opponents the JG has pitched against he could have have 120 K's.
4) ERA would be different as well.  Example: Brenham vs. 12 5A teams on schedule & Crosby vs. 5 or 6 3A teams on schedule.

I agree on who is the underdog.   That does not mean Crosby can't put it all together for seven innings and sneak up on them.  Just saying they are not favored to win.

Well heck, why waste the time to even play the game?

[3amagic]

Well, because Brenham needs a little warm up game or BP to get ready for the Bulldogs in the quarterfinals.  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
