2018-04-09: Brewers (Chacín) at Cardinals (Mikolas) 6:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 5-4, 10 innings]

[wildcat83]

Need a pitcher who can get off the mound.

[mtrebs]

Same old Brewers

[stoutdude04]

Why in the heck weren't they playing the bunt?

 

Pretty sure they were gonna try to get the force at 3rd.

[Invader3K]

Uh, Brewers, it's OK to play some defense here.

[dlk9s]

Boy does not having a closer suck

 

I know the inning isn't over and Albers gave up a single to start the inning, but the blown game against the Cubs and this inning so far really have nothing to do with the lack of a closer.

 

In both innings combined, it's been mostly balls that haven't left the infield.

[mtrebs]

Ain’t no running on Phillips!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Ha! Don't test Brett's arm.

[stoutdude04]

Pitch 1 clearly a strike...

[adambr2]

Lol. A freaking carbon copy of the other day.

 

Only the Brewers. It's what we all signed up for being fans of this team. All of the misery, none of the reward.

[dlk9s]

omg - I totally thought it was 0-2 on Fowler until I saw the ump didn't call the first pitch a strike.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Dang it! Playing for extras now.

[cnycerveceros]

Every dang year. For how long now? Why?

[SeaBass]

Every day an adventure. Let's get out of this tied.

[mtrebs]

Brewers would have struck out for out two and then a deep fly for the third out.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well, Albers did one heck of a job to escape that only giving up one.

[mtrebs]

Well, Albers did one heck of a job to escape that only giving up one.

 

Agreed

Just not the same. Different contact, less strikeouts, just not the same.

 

I get what you're saying, but even 1st and 2nd to start the inning you still feel like Knebel gets out of it. Bases loaded, you feel like he can get a save.

[B-Train]

does drinking help or only magnify the pain

[TURBO]

Well, Albers did one heck of a job to escape that only giving up one.

 

For sure, I fully expected this game to be over with bases loaded and no outs...

 

Ok, who's left to pitch the 10th and beyond?

[pacopete4]

No Cain, no Braun, and obviously no Yelich for extras.

[TJseven7]

omg - I totally thought it was 0-2 on Fowler until I saw the ump didn't call the first pitch a strike.

 

That exact location cost us 3 runs today.

[TURBO]

Holland rusty, can we get to him?

[lcbj68c]

Don't understand Villar not scoring from 2nd with 2 outs on a basehit.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Boy would I love to see the Brewers hang a crooked number on Mr. Big Contract right now.

[adambr2]

Well, Albers did one heck of a job to escape that only giving up one.

 

For sure, I fully expected this game to be over with bases loaded and no outs...

 

Ok, who's left to pitch the 10th and beyond?

 

Williams, Drake, Jennings
