2 Challenges in the top of the 1st inning both won by the brewers. Thats pretty crazy. I wonder if Roenicke would have challenged those.

[AKCheesehead]

Scherzer pitches that we don't swing at are like hen's teeth.

Nice throw, Maldy. Now a hit will put this game squarely out of reach.

[SomewhereInTime]

Maldonado has cost 4 bases in this inning alone.

[adambr2]

Why do I always hear about how awesome Maldy's defense is?

[brewmann04]

this has all the makings of a no hitter

[adambr2]

This might be the easiest perfect game ever thrown.

I know it's not the case, but the Brewer hitters look totally disinterested.

[pacopete4]

So much for winning another series. lol damn this team...

[brewmann04]

well its a split aganist a 1st place team and it still allows us to be sellers at this point..

Max actually deserved to have his no hitter.

Lost in the comments was the fact that Jungman had a pretty solid game, respectable peripherals and only 2 runs allowed in 5 innings.

Too bad he had to throw so many extra pitches because of the decision to play the infield in and because of Maldy's errors/bad throws.

I've about had it with Maldonado. He' went 0-3 today and is now hitting .173. Time to get a look at Nevin Ashley and some of the other scrap heap guys out there.

I think Jungmann should continue to see time in the rotation.
