2019-06-23: Reds (DeSclafani) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 7-5 -- Every starting position player gets a hit in big offensive day]

[yfinn6]

Of course Shaw hits one out. Haha.

[pacopete4]

Shawwwwwwww!

[markedman5]

Shaw!

[folly412]

Shaw bought himself another month.

[HarveysWBs]

Who is this #21 fellow? Do we have a player by that number that hits bombs? I can’t recall.

[turnbow59]

Yup, I just told my father an hour ago that Shaw would hit one out and have a big game so that we'll be stuck with him another month lol.

[PinaMadness]

So the first six batters strike out and Shaw hits a bomb into the third deck? What kind of bizarro world are we living in?

[folly412]

Nice opposite field homer, or triple, er...single there.

[stoutdude04]

BA trying to defend Gamel, but there is not really an excuse as to why he didnt make it to 3rd.

[HarveysWBs]

I’ll say this for the Reds: their team is still trash even after what must have been a soul-crushing, scorched-earth rebuild, but they have some arms now, so that’s cool.

 

I would like to amend my previous statement. The entire Reds roster may be, upon further review, trash.

[rcc]

Shaw with the homer at home must feel good. Say what you will I am pulling for the guy.

[Eye Black]

Nice to see the bats come alive! This is so much more fun than a bunch of strikeouts.

[yourout]

Hitting some missiles.

[markedman5]

2nd tile through hasn't been kind to DesCalfini.......Rocket after Rocket

They are expected to be big spenders in the free agency this off-season (only $58 million committed for next season), although I am not sure how well the available free agents fit their areas of need. I could see them making a run at Yasmani Grandal.

[folly412]

This lineup is fun.

[markedman5]

No cheapies in this inning.....lol

[PinaMadness]

If you're DeSclafani, I've got some good news and I got some bad news for you.

[PinaMadness]

The good news-You're on pace to strike out 27 hitters, a new MLB record.

 

The bad news-You're on pace to give up 15 runs.

[markedman5]

I wonder how many times in MLB history a guy has struck out 9 through 3 innings but given up 5 runs?

[tomwopat]

Gamel must have had a late night last night...

[Eye Black]

Some impressive exit velocities in the 3rd inning (via @Brewers)...

 

[Bulldogboy]

I have been in favor of the pitcher hitting 8th all season. If you are going to leave Yelich 2nd especially. I know others have said the same. Give Counsell credit for trying it. Hope it continues. Makes sense.

[Bulldogboy]

Good work by Thames. Dude has been more than ok.

[Eye Black]

Nice to see the Brewers produce a run in that manner (Braun steal of 3B, Thames deep sac fly). Everyone seems to be contributing today.
