Villar is now 1 HR away from the very exclusive 20/60 club.

Gomez with the leadoff, ringing double.

 

Throw your guys a bone, Villar.

[1992casey]

Yeah, it wasn't Jonathan's fault that he couldn't catch the ball. But had he clearly indicated that he couldn't see it, there were three other guys who might have caught it.

[1992casey]

Pretty cool. Rivera just turned a popup to the second baseman into a sac fly.

[adambr2]

Either Perez just wanted to help out a former teammate, or he just pulled a July Villar.

[yfinn6]

I am enjoying the boxing references Brian Anderson is making about Odor.

[jerichoholicninja]

I turned on the game to hear Rock going off on official scoring again which made me give an eyeroll to no one in particular. Now that I've seen the play I don't blame. This is just straight up stupid.

[jerichoholicninja]

Wow. How do you blow that call on the field. Probably will be upheld though because...replay.

[MadScientist]

Texas must have called up a little league infield for tonight, or else Yuni B is in Andrus's uinform.

[jerichoholicninja]

ugh

[adambr2]

Genuinely happy for Gomez. That's got to be a good moment for him. Not necessarily to beat the Brewers but winning home field for his team after a rough year.

[pacopete4]

Not gonna lie. Stings to watch Gomez and Lucroy rake for the Rangers. Sick of the Brewers never being able to put a pitching staff in place to win. Being a Brewers fan sucks quite frequently.

[adambr2]

Don't bother, he's out.

[jerichoholicninja]

Don't bother, he's out.

 

Why not? You can pretty much flip a coin on replays.

Why? Lucroy is basically doing exactly what he did for us, so it's not unexpected or anything. And we got Gomez' best years, if the whole situation sucks for anyone, it's got to be the Astros above all others.

 

I agree that rebuilding is tough and if we had managed to develop more than 1 ace in our farm in the last 25 years we probably wouldn't be in this position.

I mean I get sure, take a look when it's close and late, but no way they could have ever justified overturning that.
