Good to see santana and shaw in there and arcia finally jumps broxton!

[Ennder]

Brett Phillips slashed .522/.593/.739 this week. Look out Broxton!

[Devinep]

Yeah if Keon can be "ready" to come back up after a couple days in the minors why can't Phillips be "ready" to take him over at the bigs by the same logic ?

[rcc]

Come September both Phillips and Brinson should be in Milwaukee to stay. I hope they make the most of it.

[rcc]

The Twins haven't been too bad this year. Hopefully Suter can pitch another great game and the hitters do their thing.

[FVBrewerFan]

What did Auggie just say? I mean, even for him that was a sequence of rambling half-words. Something about Santfastbadaytodseehimbahclub? What??

[BuckyBrewer61]

Watching the pregame show...while it's kind of sad to celebrate a team that lost a World Series 35 years later, I can understand it because it's the best the franchise has ever done.

 

But can we please stop talking about team streak? They started the season what, 13-0, then missed the playoffs? I get there were less playoff teams then, and the start of the season was memorable, but otherwise why do we keep talking about that team 30 years later?

Reminds me of how depressing it was when they were showing the 50 greatest moments in franchise history.

[yfinn6]

At least Braun hit that one hard again.

[adambr2]

Great hit. Poor baserunning decision.

[stoutdude04]

Great hit. Poor baserunning decision.

 

It looked like he may have slowed heading to second then started up again once Buxton bobbled it off the wall.

[markedman5]

I have no problem with the decision......just didn't work. Took 2 great throws to get him and it's worth the chance to get to 3rd base with 1 out.

 

3 hard hit balls.....nothing to show for it.....beat goes on.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Good news is three hard hit balls. Though that's been the case a lot lately.

 

I think tonight favors the Twins matchup wise, so it'd be big to take this one. Brewers should have a good shot in each of the next three just looking at pitching. Of course, it's baseball, so never know.

Once he saw Buxton bobble it, he went to third. Tough break

[homer]

Every time I hear Suter's name I think of O Brother Where Art Thou....retweet if you get this reference.

It's bona fide

[adambr2]

Aguilar definitely in the running for ugliest AB of the year with that one.

Hes got prospects.

[yfinn6]

Two ugly strikeouts and another hard-hit ball. Nice to see both Braun and Thames hitting the ball hard where it was pitched. Hernan... yuck.

[OnaBadger58]

Aguilar definitely in the running for ugliest AB of the year with that one.

Perez says.... Hold my beer

[yfinn6]

Aguilar definitely in the running for ugliest AB of the year with that one.

 

Hernan: "Hold my beer and watch this."

[adambr2]

These ABs are despicable. Not really a mystery as to why the offensive slump has been so bad with ABs like Aguilar and Perez just had.

[young guns]

Aguilar definitely in the running for ugliest AB of the year with that one.

Perez says not so fast.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Very efficient early for Santana. Not what you want to see against a team with a lot of bullpen question marks and pretty heavy usage yesterday.
