2017-06-20: Pirates (Kuhl) at Brewers (Davies) 6:40 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 7-3]

[pacopete4]

There's going to be stretches like this during a season but I'm about done with Davies. He's just not my cup of tea as a pitcher to begin with and now the results are just not anywhere what they need to be.

[rcc]

Sogard left stranded. This is going to be a long night if they keep that up.

[owbc]

This team's offense is basically generated by Sogard and 5 Russell Branyan clones.

[adambr2]

'Ryan Braun has stalled in his progress returning from the calf injury, still no timeline. '

 

Shocking news.

[owbc]

Franklin just earned himself another 2 weeks on the roster.

 

Edit...sarcasm...maybe?

[rcc]

Hey, Franklin did good! He can't field or throw but he can hit it out apparently.

[owbc]

Another whiff with 1 out and 2 RISP.

Whats worse is that he didn't even swing at the best pitch he was given to swing at a slider at the top of the zone. Seriously you swing at a ball below the strike zone but won't swing at a hey hit me pitch?

[jason21nl]

Shocker...Can't score them.

[adambr2]

Thanks, Sogard and Thames. Wasn't interested in getting back into this game anyway.

[markedman5]

All or nothing offense is getting old fast

[nate82]

Well was fun while it lasted but it looks like the Cubs are starting to get hot. Probably about this time next week the Brewers will be 3-5 games behind the Cubs.

[markedman5]

Davies has now given up 16 homers in 79 innings.......

[brewmann04]

There is no one in this rotation that better than a 3-4-5 starter

[brewmann04]

wild card hunt baby

[jerichoholicninja]

I pretty much assumed a 4 game sweep by the Cardinals last week that would send the team spiraling to a 4th place finish but I guess it's going to be a 4 game sweep by the Pirates.

[brewmann04]

we have to at least split this series

[adambr2]

Another inning, another squandered scoring opportunity.

[jerichoholicninja]

I sort of get the whole strikeouts don't matter thing but watching the Brewers should change most people's minds.

[Matt1969]

Looks like our lead is gonna be down to .5 games.

[brewmann04]

I still shocked with this current roster that we are still in First

What's more amazing is how far in first they could be with a halfway competent bullpen.

[brewmann04]

and more clutch hitting instead of just waiting for Home runs .

[jerichoholicninja]

Really? The Brewers are holding a number for Jim Ganter. How stupid.

[jerichoholicninja]

Taking 12 years to reach the World Series is monumental?
