2018-10-19 (NLCS Game #6): Dodgers (Ryu) at Brewers (Miley) 7:39 PM CDT [Brewers win, 7-2 -- Force Game 7 with the NL Pennant and a spot in the World Series on the line]

[dlk9s]

Let’s keep going - not letting them off the mat. They can score fast if we get comfortable .

 

Please please please do not turn into Green Bay defense with a big lead lol

 

Hell, let's not turn into Green Bay's offense with a big lead, either.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Miley settling in nicely now. Good inning.

I don’t want to get overly greedy because you obviously must win tonight, but the longer Miley can hold it together today the better that could possibly make our chances tomorrow.

 

Exactly. If they can keep scoring runs, you stick with Miley as long as possible, then can go to Davies or maybe Guerra, assuming he is available.

Heck yea that too!!!

 

And I love that Kratz is doing well. Another great story !

[jjfanec]

Smoltz and Buck have been very good tonight in my mind.

[brewcrewdue80]

Dodger hitters I feel have only hit the ball up the middle of opposite field their last 5 or 6innings of hitting. Its quite a difference with that ability to all change the approach, but I feel that adjustment worked in their favor.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Arcia gave that one a ride. Ryu isn't fooling anyone tonight.

Two very well hit balls so far. Unfortunately nothing to show for it

It helps we got a nice lead. If that Dodgers lead stuck it would have been clinch this clinch that Boston this Boston that blah blah blah.

[adambr2]

Damn, Arcia didn't even get all of that and still almost hit it out. Where is this power surge coming from?

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Well that inning wasn't ideal, but two balls hit on the screws, and the 4th rolls over the lineup

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Feels like one more set of at bats against Ryu would be productive. A couple loud outs in the 3rd. Don’t know if the opportunity presents itself.

I have only watched the last few games but I feel like they gush over everyone. They have been Madden for Favre level love for the Brewers bullpen, Yelich and the bottom of the Brewers order. They also let Machado have it for running into Aguilar

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Urias is up in the pen. I'm thinking they go to him in the 4th. Start slapping him around, though, and they'll probably be forced to go to their good relievers.

[True Blue Brew Crew]

Shaping up well with Cain set to lead off 3 of the first 4 innings. Runs scored both times so far, hopefully soon to be 3 out of 3.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow, horrible plate discipline by Bellinger there. Shoulda been a leadoff walk. I'll take it, though.

[Oxy]

I don't particularly appreciate Smoltz and Verducci notso subtly imply-ing shenanigans about the Brewers knowing what's coming from the mound.

[jjfanec]

Taylor feels like the hardest out on this team

[TURBO]

It is still pretty early...

 

One out at a time. lol

[jjfanec]

Perfect inning again. Only 70 pitches after 25 or so in the first.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Keep them off the base paths and the board. More zeros.

Haha. I have said it all series. He just seems to be more patient than the rest. Good hitter.

I really enjoy watching him (and not just because he was the hero to send my alma mater to the CWS a few years ago). He is very aggressive at the plate, but not a hacker - he still tends to make good contact most of the time.

I don't think it's that, I think it's more of an approach thing knowing Ryu can't get enough of his curveball - In Moose's 2nd AB, he got blown away by 3 fastballs almost like he was attacking each pitch like one had to be offspeed.

That is just the reality of it. That is today’s big storyline if they can clinch. If we win it is just another day to play.

[MoreTrife]

Sick of smoltz slobbering urias. Dude may be good one day but I see nothing special.
