Pitch looked high to me...possibly why Braun stopped running.

It was high, out of the zone, and a late call. Braun probably started trotting to 2nd base thinking it was ball four.

Solid idea having Braun attempt to steal with a bad leg.

 

It was. Full count hit and run. A ball well outside the zone got called a strike...not much we can do there. They weren't trying to steal a base. It was to get Braun a running start to avoid a DP.

Definitely high. No way it was in the zone. Totally undeserved break for WSH. Hopefully we're not looking back at that as a game changer. The second it happened, I feared it was.

A lot of call hurts tonight.

 

Still holdouts on giving it to the machines? These guys are determining games and races all on their own.

Entirely possible. Even so, braun is a vet and knows better.

 

True, but as a man built of delicate China he probably isn't taking unnecessary risks.

Pina with a great play there.

It's crazy. Just go through that list of brewer games and look how many more call hurts there is. Frustrating.

No luck whatsoever. Just stinks.
