2018-08-20: Reds (Bailey) at Brewers (Anderson) 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 5-2]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I forgot Taylor Williams is back. Perfect spot for him.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Really nice abs from Keon and Manny there.......

 

Yeah, they must work out.

 

 

Homer your Keith Law quote makes me laugh every time I read it. Love it!

[bucks2281]

Archer left the Pirates game with a leg injury. I should go read some of their message boards.

 

Looks like he got hurt while he was batting

[sveumrules]

Perez pinch hitting begat Hughes pitching begat two Badger Mutual Insurance runs.

 

So it was written, so it has come to pass.

[MrTPlush]

I do not support starting this inning with Jeffress at all. Give someone else at least one batter.

[KeithStone53151]

Jeffress does not look sharp here...

 

I'll add I'm streaming the game so I'm at least 2 pitches behind everyone...

Looked better than Hamilton. Those were some of the worst swings I have ever seen.

 

I would prefer a few more strikes to Peraza.

[BruisedCrew]

Better win this one because there will be no Hader or Jeffress tomorrow.

Jennings and Williams should probably be loosening up just in case...

[Matt Breen]

We just walked Jose Peraza. That's sad.

[mtrebs]

And that’s why you put Perez in for Shaw.

[markedman5]

Think Shaw is making that turn?

[MrTPlush]

And goodnight y’all!!!!

[Matt Breen]

Scooter saves us!

[stoutdude04]

And that’s why you put Perez in for Shaw.

 

Yup.

[Vgmastr]

There's the old Scooter I remember.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

And that’s why you put Perez in for Shaw.

 

Yep, Shaw has been better than expected at 2nd, but there's no way he turns that.

[mtrebs]

Big win today. Keep it up Brewers. This is a make-it or break-it type of week.

[treego14]

Go Brewers!

[markedman5]

Obviously not a big deal but you get the sense that even the players are getting tired of Sophia's ' How does it feel?" " what does it. Say about this team?" Questions after every win......

[Fear The Chorizo]

And that’s why you put Perez in for Shaw.

 

9th inning was when that happened, right? Shaw could have hit in the 7th and still gotten pulled for defense in either the 8th or 9th so Perez still makes that turn.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Think Shaw is making that turn?

 

Nope, but I'd still have let him hit in the 7th and have had him pulled for D in the 8th or 9th and have Perez still make that turn...guess it boils down to me rather having a guy who just hit a HR who is stuck at 2b to try and get as many bats in the lineup get one more rbi chance before getting yanked for defense, even against a lefty, than pinch hitting for him with his defensive replacement.

 

Call me crazy I guess.

[mtrebs]

I can’t really argue in support of pinch hitting Perez for Shaw in the 7th, but putting Perez in for Shaw defensively in the 8th was the right call. I don’t think anyone is arguing that though.

[pacopete4]

Counsell managing like a pro. Good Brewers win tonight.

[TexasCheesehead]

I was at the game tonight and the Brewers haven’t lost a game I’ve been to all year so im taking 100% of the credit for this W. Haha!
