AWESOME!

 

I can't believe they got that off when Wilson's flip was a touch high. I'm not taking away from what Wilson did (it was a great play), but usually if that flip isn't perfect you have no chance at three. Does this pass up Yuni's BTB flip as the play of the year? I think so.

It wasn't nearly as smooth to watch as the Yuni flip and Weeks barehand but can't argue too much with you as it was a triple play instead of a double play.

Funny, how one of great defensive plays of the year is done by Betancourt and Fielder, who are constantly barraged for their poor defense.

As they should be.

So much for defensive metrics.

 

 

I'll still believe what a large sample of several years of defensive statistics say over one play.

Brewers putting on a defensive clinic tonight.
This is Jack Burton in the Pork Chop Express, and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin' out there.

Casey McGehee may have a baserunning rival. I thought there was no way Navarro would be out there. Cripes is he slow.

Wilson's glove flip was very impressive.

Jerry's throw to home was a strike, my goodness.

Can we get our offense figured out now?

Wolf is throwing a Suppan shutout thus far. He looks terrible.
I can see it right now: "Wolfie pitched great, hit his spots and made clutch pitches when he needed to."

 

I love good defense. It's a real treat to watch this team make a couple of plays like that in the span of two innings.

Exactly. The odds can't be good having a shutout going when giving up hits to 4 out of the first 8 batters faced, but I'll take it.

One of these innings the Dodgers are going to capitalize on their baserunners. Can we get some run support?

The Brewers haven't been close to a guy on base.

I had to mute the TV during Mark A's interview. Did he say anything of note?

Pink ties and community involvement. Didn't miss anything.

He wants to get the Brewers top two picks signed, but expects it to come down to the last minute. If that wasn't already obvious. Also there is a new foam finger available, lol. So no, you didn't miss anything.

Alright I am just speechless at this point.
