[homer]

Cain is back.

[tmwiese55]

Really gotta have this one. Really don't want to go into STL only up 1.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Nice to see no Dickerson or Frazier in their lineups. Seems they have hit us hard all year.

Well, Wade Miley has been our stopper. (Wow that seems weird to say).

[rcc]

Miley the stopper needs a good game to win this series. I won't miss watching the Pirates against the Crew. Beat the Bucs!

[sveumrules]

I feel like if the Brewers score runs today it will greatly increase their chances of winning.

Now, here is a guy who, when he doesnt have his glasses, cant see as well!

[TooLiveBrew]

This is probably our best overall lineup (save for Kratz at C), and our best SP. Need to get it done today. Let's go boys!

[tmwiese55]

I know we beat it to death the other day already, but with Kratz they're not even going by traditional day game after a night game stuff. Is what it is at this point but it's really weird.

[Eye Black]

I love watching Yelich and Cain get back-to-back hits.

[Eye Black]

Bases loaded with one out, and Aguilar coming up. Really need to convert and get an early lead today.

[pacopete4]

Nice to get a run at least out of this.

Nice to get a run at least out of this.

Yeah, collecting three hits and HBP all in the same inning usually lead to more than one run, but after getting shutout yesterday getting anything early seems good.

After Aguilar striking out I didn’t have much hope.

[Eye Black]

Come on kid, we’re in a pennant race here! Brutal.

 

Interesting to see what they (league office replay) decide on what should have been an Arcia home run.

 

Edit: I think they got it wrong. That would have hit off the top of the fence and out. That kid cost the Brewers a home run, IMO.

[tmwiese55]

Yea pretty sure that's gone but who knows maybe it hits just right and pops back into the field. Just get him in now so it doesn't matter.

[Underachiever]

That thug kid needs to be kicked out.

[brewerfan82]

I don't understand how ballparks don't have cameras in place for those plays. Seems like putting a cam on each foul pole that tracks the ball would help with a lot of homerun/no-homerun and fair/foul calls.

[TooLiveBrew]

It looked like the kid caught the ball out in front of the fence

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

What a bad break. Man, I hope Arcia scores. Don't need any attention on what could have been.

[young guns]

I think thats probably a good call stands. Ball probably hits the top of the wall, but possibly on the corner and bounces back.

[TooLiveBrew]

BOOOOOM goes the MVP!!!! Big time, Yeli!!

[young guns]

Kid just wantes a 3 run homer for yelich.

[brewerfan82]

ha, well, that moots the point!
