2018-10-20 (NLCS Game #7): Dodgers (Buehler) at Brewers (Chacín) 7:09 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 5-1 -- 2018 Season Comes to a Close]

[adambr2]

The frustrating thing here is that Buehler is not bringing his A game tonight, and we are not taking advantage.

Oh Christian...

Is anyone else feeling like he’s regressing to the mean?

 

We won’t have the sample size to say for sure.

[DuWayne Steurer]

I don't get "saving" the Pinch hitter thing. You use them once per game. The runs you score on the hits they hit count the same whether those runs score in the 2nd or 7th inning. What might not occur later in the game is an opportunity with multiple men on base.

[phnxcrew]

If we get beat because of our offense only scoring one, inexcusable. If we battle and lose because their guys execute late, I'm good with that. None of this one run crap

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Dodgers had their bullpen up also. Wood was throwing. That would be a very short start for Buehler if Roberts is thinking matchup vs. Shaw and Moustakas in the 4th.

[NievesNoNO]

Hang in there folks, it's one run.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I mean, we are going to have to score more than two. Were always going to have to.

[Bulldogboy]

We need to get the lead before Hader leaves this game. Kershaw is coming soon and Baez has two innings then Jansen. Time is now. Patience is the key. Guys are not putting the pressure on a rookie.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Getting Harder in early to keep it close but then batting Schoop with 2 on seems like a mixed message.

 

I think he's probably thinking there will be other bigger spots later in the game when he'd rather use Santana, Granderson etc..so he doesn't want to burn one of them this early and not have them available later in the game.

 

Yeah, but that's a HUGE spot right there. You can't guarantee there will be another big spot down the line. Maybe there is and Grandy is a hero and everyone goes home happy, but I think you have to play that inning like it's the 9th.

Yep...it's called Kershaw, Baez & Jansen..One more inning of Buehler I'd say, and those 3 go two each... ball game.

Crowd doesn’t seem as crazy tonight?

[82brewcrew82]

I just don't know if the offense can get it together.

[HarveysWBs]

Listening on the radio, so I can’t see pitch location or speed. Hader not sharp tonight, or are they hitting good pitches?

Tends to be what happens when good hitters see the same pitcher 4-5 times in a series, no matter how unhittable they are

[lcbj68c]

Shaw again! He can just stay there until Hiura is ready.

[jason21nl]

Shaw doesn’t turn a pretty DP but hey gets the job done!

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Double play came in handy. Shortened the inning for Hader.

He's given up a single in 2 innings....

They're fine; just biding their time. Under the circumstances, you're not going to match the energy you get from going up 4-1 in the bottom of the first in an elimination game. That's too high of a bar.

I like it when the other teams hit into double plays

Sounded like some were well-hit outs?

[nodakfan17]

Hader at 18

Just responding to why he hasn't struck 6 guys out so far...they are certainly putting balls in play

It was extremely loud before the Dodgers took the lead
