2017-07-06: Brewers (Davies) at Cubs (Montgomery) 1:20 PM CDT [Brewers win, 11-2]

[newrivervalley]

classify move not bunting.

[wildcat83]

Cubs throw up the white flag in the 5th...

 

That's weird... What's the point of taking them out?

[stalton]

The Zack Davies turn in the rotation offense is really impressive.

Makes you wonder what Sheets record could have been with this offense

Rest. Harder to get hurt in the dugout.

[wildcat83]

Maddon thought boy the Brewers didn't score last inning, better get another lefty in there.

[liveforoctober]

I wish there was a way I could put money on Yadiel Rivera being the first bat off the Brewer's bench today. When guys get called up, Counsell uses them.

 

I could have been rich...

Injury risk maybe, but how much rest are you getting? Once you go through a full game day warmup routine, batting practice, and then play 5 innings what's the difference to play the other 4....

[markedman5]

Arcia just has magic hands.....my goodness

[liveforoctober]

56 mph "curve" from john jay via gamecast .. fantastic

[MadScientist]

Santana able to turn on that 65 mph gas.

[jerichoholicninja]

Respect the game Rock? Really? It's pretty simple, don't burn a reliever in a game you're not going to win.

[MadScientist]

I'm going to a little league game tonight. I guarantee the pitchers will be throwing harder than Jay.

[MadScientist]

If you have to play a one game series at Miller Park South, this is the way to do it.

 

Back to back series sweeps!

[rcc]

Yay! 11-2 and showed the Cubs why they are in first place. Now on to the Yankees and see what the Crew can do there.

[hawing]

[sarcasm]Weird. The Cubs had since May to get ready for this game.[/sarcasm]

 

The radio line of the game for me was from Jeff Levering, about one of Jon Jay's pitches:

"Folks, there are roads you can drive on faster than that."

 

Today's game will be a nice happy place to visit on downer days.

[datrain711]

Very nice to get this one as I don't have high hopes for Guerra in Yankee Stadium tomorrow. Great win!

Lepay had a good line about Jay too: "He has a moment. The Brewers are having a day."

Maddon is too much. After schwarbs 0-4 with 2 Ks, said he hit a foul ball hard. Schwarbs, Baez and Maddon. Hate those three.

[newrivervalley]

Did Broxton get 3 walks like the MLB box score says???

[LouisEly]

This is how Counsell must feel right now:

Counsell 3:16 says I just whipped your...

 

Karma is a you-know-what.

[Pugger]

Where's BA?

 

Was he announcing for the MLB Network? Matt Lepay does a nice job filling in for him.

[Pugger]

Cubs are falling apart.

 

Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch. I am weary of those Cub fans overrunning Miller Park.

[Pugger]

Great play by Broxton in center.

 

Another single run for Chicago. Getting at least one back this inning would make the game a bit more comfortable again.

 

Are you speaking of the play where Broxton ran into that damn brick wall again? That wall with the freaking ivy is a menace IMO.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Yes. Broxton was completely fearless on that catch. But that brick wall is a definitely a menace.

[stalton]

Maddon is too much. After schwarbs 0-4 with 2 Ks, said he hit a foul ball hard. Schwarbs, Baez and Maddon. Hate those three.

 

What gets me is that when asked if they are looking at the standing yet, Maddon emphatically said they were not. I hate to break it to you Joe, even if you have confidence in your team, one should acknowledge where you are or where you want to be. I feel like the Brewers are the Rodney Dangerfield of the NL.
