2018-09-10: Brewers (Miley) at Cubs (Lester) 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 3-2; Hader dominates over 2 IP, & JJ slams the door]

[82brewcrew82]

Too close to take.

[MoreTrife]

Oooof. Tough strike.

[KeithStone53151]

Yeah that one's on yelich for sure. Oh well, at least got one.

[adambr2]

My pleas for us to stop taking called 3rd strikes with runners in scoring position continue to go unheeded, even by the best of our hitters.

[LouisEly]

Brewers would be up 6-1 if the wind wasn't blowing in.

Maybe. They often pitch differently based on whether the wind is blowing in or out. With the wind blowing in they may be more aggressive and pitch to contact more. Lester has only thrown 36 pitches through two innings despite five hits and a walk.

Robot umps pelase

[LouisEly]

Miley got a call there in the first, so I have no complaints.

[yfinn6]

Would it kill Arcia to set his feet and make a decent throw when you've got a slower runner?

[MoreTrife]

Didn't the pitcher hitting eighth go back out of vogue??

[tmwiese55]

Didn't the pitcher hitting eighth go back out of vogue??

 

He just has to try and prove he's smarter than everyone else

[markedman5]

Nice inning Wade......that's more like it

[TooLiveBrew]

Nice to score first. Hopefully we score often.

apparently just once.

We could score in other innings, frequently.

Good point.

This is the type of leading-edge analysis folks come to this board for.

[KeithStone53151]

Brewers hitters need to stop trying to hit bombs into the wind. Line drives, string hits together...that's how we're gonna score.

[yfinn6]

Braun with an awesome at-bat. I think he was guessing.

[adambr2]

Come on Braun. Kirk Nieuwenhuis himself wouldn't have chased that one.

[adambr2]

Robot umps pelase

 

A robo ump would have just as emphatically rang up Yelich as it was a strike.

[MoreTrife]

Right down the middle on a 3-1 count and Schoop missed it. Then 3-2 right down the middle and infield pop up. Terrible. Just terrible.

[markedman5]

Cards and Dodgers both losing

[KeithStone53151]

Hold your phone he's got a cannon! ... referring to Moustakas

[markedman5]

That's our 2018 Wade Miley

[MoreTrife]

That Brewers postseason commercial is excellent.

[TooLiveBrew]

That Brewers postseason commercial is excellent.

Amen to that!

[stoutdude04]

I keep expecting Miley to have a blow up...it continues to not happen.

 

*ducks*

[Roderick]

So what was the dillard "reveal"?

 

 

Bump

[topper09er]

Cards and Dodgers both losing

 

Cubs losing too, 4th inning
