This is pathetic.

 

I haven't watched this team on TV for a good two months...and honestly I wish that streak didn't end tonight watching this defense.

[stoutdude04]

That's too bad. I've really enjoyed watching them. I'm not able right now, but score mobile isn't painting a pretty picture.

[MrTPlush]

Well 5 unearned runs is about all one needs to say(yes I realized it's technically 5, but they shouldn't be. Honestly don't know why they are.)

 

EDIT: This is a game I will have trouble unseeing. Wow this is pathetic all the way around through one.

[AdvantageSchneider]

A bad first inning comes to an end. Understatement of the year there.

[ClosetBrewerFan]

Villarl has become very frustrating. The talent is there but I question the head. Two errors and the CS going to 3rd with 2 outs and Lucroy at the plate. Wow!

[adambr2]

I'm starting to get on board with some of you guys about Villar going after 3rd with 2 outs too much. Knock it off, Jonathan. You've got Lucroy up and you're down 5.

[brewerfan82]

And the inning ends on Villar getting thrown out trying to steal 3rd with 2 outs and Lucroy up to bat... I don't understand why no one on this team is doing anything about this.

[markedman5]

Down 5-0 in the first and Villar gets thrown out trying to steal 3rd by a mile with 2 outs....

 

It's almost comical......if CC isn't man enough to order him not to run in that situation then I just have no idea why he wants to be a manager.

I was more okay with it when he was taking 3rd at a 90% clip or so in that situation, but he's getting thrown out too much. I am alright with a guy taking 3rd if the opportunity presents itself, even with 2 out, but if you're going to try, you better be damn sure you're going to make it. Obviously, he's not.

[adambr2]

Villar and Nieuwenhuis flashing the leather today.

[MrTPlush]

Just got some bleach to poor in my eyes. Should be a relieving feeling.

[markedman5]

Maybe Craig finally has had enough......finally

 

Villar has now exited the game. Perez moves to shortstop and Elmore to third.

[Boomer5]

I'm just looking at the MLB at bat app. Kirk has 3 errors?

 

All kidding aside is that a record for a OFer?

[1992casey]

Was any reason given for Villar's exit?

[adambr2]

The record for most errors in a game by an OFer is 5, which has been done numerous times. However, it hasn't happened since 1902. Not sure where to find the modern era figures on it.

[adambr2]

I'm (fairly) certain it had to be disciplinary for the CS at 3rd with 2 out, right?

[1992casey]

It sounds that way from reading the thread. I just tuned in, so I was wondering if the announcers said anything.

[MrTPlush]

This is by far THE WORST 4 innings I have watched in my life and it's not even close.

[MrTPlush]

It sounds that way from reading the thread. I just tuned in, so I was wondering if the announcers said anything.

 

I don't recall them mentioning a reason...it is LePay today. He doesn't give much more than the basic commentary honestly.

That is pretty impressive. Especially in 4 innings. Mitts in 1902 were a bit different.

[hawing]

As of the bottom of the 4th, no explanation for Villar's removal has been forthcoming on the radio broadcast.

[markedman5]

TV cameras showing Craig Counsell having a lively (not negative) discussion with Jonathan Villar in the dugout. I think we have our answer.

[1992casey]

They've been talking a lot about it now. Craig and Jonathan have been having a conversation. Nobody looks pissed or anything. Matt and Bill are suggesting that there are things that can be explained on the bench during a game that might not be as effective otherwise.

That should really be the color man's job shouldn't it? Especially considering LePay is a sub anyway.
