2017-05-30: Brewers (Davies) at Mets (Pill) 6:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-4, 12 innings]

[trwi7]

NY is not all that bad. I could think of worse places to live like Wilmington, Delaware.

 

I want to visit a screen door factory.

Sure their is an excuse.....he made the pitch and should have had a strike out.

 

should have? No. Could have. Lets not act like it was a clear strike. It scraped the strike zone at best.

 

Would have been nice to have that Strike 3 that scraped the strike zone with Shaw up and Thames on 3rd called a ball in a similar situation.

[jason21nl]

As an avid ice fisherman I'm enjoying the conversation much more than the actual game.

 

Suburbans with holes are called tubers.

[adambr2]

Tough matchup for him, but Shaw has been pitiful tonight in key situations . Two routine flyballs by him would have been enough for 2 runs.

[topper09er]

Ned Yost flashbacks here leaving the LOOGY in too long

[markedman5]

My goodness... lol

[topper09er]

That is a Met tradition

 

[MrTPlush]

Did that really just happen....

BA's claim that you might go years between bases loaded walks seemed wrong, so here are the Brewers bases loaded walk totals the past few years

2016: 13

2015: 6

2014: 2

2013: 2

2012: 9

2011: 7

2010: 12

 

As I suspected they are not that rare

[adambr2]

What happened on the 2 run error?

He's such a great announcer though.

 

I'll just say that's in blue so all the BA lovers don't jump down my throat.

[MrTPlush]

What happened on the 2 run error?

 

Bandy popped it up a mile high to the SS, the SS camped under it for a couple seconds, the ball started it's decent, the SS realized his grave mistake and started to back pedal....too late.

Towering infield pop.up that the SS whiffed on.......

LOL, that's fantastic...hope we can take advantage and win this...

[adambr2]

Gameday showed the 1-2 as well within the strike zone.

[jerichoholicninja]

Good lord BA they just changed the strike zone rules this year. But you never hear talk about the strike zone. Such knowledge.

[MrTPlush]

You people care way too much with the fine details of what an announcer says. Holy moly.

Cabrera's body language made it hysterical. The second he started drifting back you knew exactly what was about to happen.

I care when everyone talks about how great a guy is but he can't even remember a major rule change.

[adambr2]

Too bad, some long ABs but nothing to show for them.

[stoutdude04]

Bring on the machines.

Maybe it's because the players union refused to approve the changes to the strike zone so their was no,rule change?

[Ennder]

Good move bringing in Knebel here. Let him clean up and pitch another inning and if it is still tied at that point hope your bad RP out pitch theirs. Too many times the visitor refuses to use the closer and loses the game without ever using their best guy.

I've seen the changed strike zone talked about a few times here but I guess it didn't actually happen. I'll admit I was wrong about that but he specifically said "there's been no talk about the strike zone" which is completely false.

[MrTPlush]

Glad to see Arcia rack up some hits. Still needs to show some more power though(only one XBH in his small hit streak)
