2019-06-12: Brewers (Woodruff) at Astros (Verlander) [Brewers win, 6-3 in 14 innings -- Brewers overcome 24 Ks with four long balls; Thames HR ties it in 7th & Moustakas HR proves the difference in extras]

[yfinn6]

Tough strikeout. That was a really good pitch.

 

Thames is swinging it well, too.

[adambr2]

Those are the chances you just can't miss out on to win in places like this. Have to put that in play.

[adambr2]

Thames had no prayer.

[DHonks]

nice catcher fist pump. Did he think the game was over? Not sure I've seen that before

[willie key]

It really gets tiring at this point. Just hit the ball somewhere.

[Bulldogboy]

This team has a mental block in these situations. Only thing you can conclude.

or not. I conclude good pitching always beats good hitting.

[brewmann04]

what driving more nuts the Brewers inabilty to score runs with less than one out and My Boston Bruins getting shutout at home and losing a game 7

[dlk9s]

It bothers me that this team got Osuna for basically nothing.

 

There's a reason why they did.

[brewmann04]

yes big reason

[yourout]

I think their only chance to win this game just died

[Bulldogboy]

or not. I conclude good pitching always beats good hitting.

Good pitching every single time though?? Once in a while sure but you don't need a hit. Just a ball in play? I don't know.

[adambr2]

Results notwithstanding, Jeffress doesn't have it tonight. Really playing with fire.

[FVBrewerFan]

Yea right, it's so easy, just hit it somewhere. Says everyone who has ever faced Hader.

They havent faced that many Haders.

[Oxy]

I was pretty sure Alvarez was going to take that pitch deep. Would like that high FB to either miss the zone or just catch the top of it...

[Brew crew 92]

Last year’s Jeffress just showed up.

[Oxy]

Results notwithstanding, Jeffress doesn't have it tonight. Really playing with fire.

 

He kept getting better.

[ecjimg]

Well this is where Perez' inability to hit RHP hurts. Pinch hit for Shaw would be a no brainer. Perez? Pina? Not Aguilar..........

[Bulldogboy]

Knowing the kind of hitter Counsell was in his day it has to be killing him to watch this team not be able to even make contact un those situations. He wasn't a great hitter but he would choke up and slap a ball somewhere. It's got to hurt to see these guys be helpless.

[FVBrewerFan]

Yea right, it's so easy, just hit it somewhere. Says everyone who has ever faced Hader.

 

They havent faced that many Haders.

 

And they've had far more hits in those situations than the non-factual "seems like" metric shows us.

[folly412]

I trust we'll let them walk off before breaking our prestigious all-time strikeouts in a game record.

[willie key]

The brewers plate discipline was ridiculously bad tonight. My god

Doesn’t the metric say they are the worst in the majors though? I think the average is 51%

 

The brewers were like 38%

 

It’s getting tiring at this point

[homer]

That has to be one of the cheapest homers I've ever seen. Wow. This park is garbage. Alas, as it was hit by a Brewer, we'll take it.

We're owed a few here from that crap Richie Sexson pole shot double.

 

Is the dent still on the flag pole?
