For those "watching" on gameday, how good/bad was that play at the plate?

 

I mean great throws by Perez and Arcia, and close play at the plate, it's not like he was out by a mile, but terrible send with nobody out.

Out by a foot or so. Really good throw from Arcia, the throw brought the glove right to the runner. If Vogt has to "tag" him he's safe. The throw essentially was the tag.

[dlk9s]

I think our announcers are pretty good, actually, but I did have to chuckle at Rock saying he didn't like the visit to the mound because it takes the pitcher out of his rhythm in a full count.

 

Because Knebel was in such a good rhythm after walking the leadoff guy, giving up a double, then going full count. I say take him out of that rhythm, please.

It was a perfect play by the Brewers defense. Literally couldn't doing anything better. As for the play at the plate just barely got him.

On replay, the runner was out by a half-inch. He almost got his hand in there before the tag. If the throws and tag weren't perfect, he's safe.

[BigDaddy1974]

That my friends was one great relay and tag. Could not do it any better. Hopefully Corey can shut the door.

[BigDaddy1974]

Knebel really struggling to locate his FB.

[adambr2]

This is as bad as I've seen Knebel look all year. Can't throw his fastball for a strike, can't get his curve over for a strike much. That called strike 1 to Gordon was a gift.

[rondoman]

Broxton looks like he gave up on that ball.

 

Knebel all over the place.

[BigDaddy1974]

SWEET!!!!!!!

[rondoman]

Yes! Brewers gain a game.

[adambr2]

Strike one was a gift call, strike 2 was a gift swing at a pitch head high .

 

Then Knebel made one good pitch, fortunately that was all it took.

 

That was as ugly and lucky of a 2 K scoreless save as you can possibly see from Knebel. Hope he got it out of his system, and the important thing is we were still able to get the W.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Take the wins any way that you can get them. Big to start the series at home with a W.

[wildcat83]

What a weird strike 3 to end it. Vogt 3 steps toward the mound, then stops and turns, then ump calls it.

[jason21nl]

It's never easy but I'll take it!

[FVBrewerFan]

Every Voght counts.

I guarantee the ump had already called it with his voice......some just take awhile to ring them up

[dlk9s]

Broxton looks like he gave up on that ball.

 

Knebel all over the place.

 

If you're talking about the double in the 9th, I think he just realized he didn't have the angle and Perez might dive for it, so he needed to be in position to play it off the wall if need be.

[MrTPlush]

Yay Brewers!

[markedman5]

Corey appears to be 1 of those guys who needs to pitch regularly to be sharp.....or so it seems

 

Barnes had no,issues

[Matt1969]

WOW!!! What a win. Knebel needs to quit making me age 50 years when he pitches with only a 0ne run lead.

[adambr2]

So that's actually 41 straight for Knebel relative to Chapman's record of 49, right?

[rcc]

What a game! Exciting defensive play and Knebel with a strikeout to end the game. Vogt put on a show for his new ballclub at home.

 

As Ueck said it was a dandy.

[wildcat83]

Broxton looks like he gave up on that ball.

 

Knebel all over the place.

 

Broxton was on a dead sprint all the way through it. He did everything but lay out for it.

[wildcat83]

What a weird strike 3 to end it. Vogt 3 steps toward the mound, then stops and turns, then ump calls it.

It looks odd because Vogt had to stop and turn around to make sure, so he must not have heard anything.
