2019-07-07: Brewers (Anderson) at Pirates (Musgrove) [Brewers lose, 6-5]

[82brewcrew82]

How is it that the pirates don't score many runs, each guy seems to be such tough outs.

That might have more to do with who they are facing.

[Eye Black]

Is it just me, or does it seem to rain a lot in Pittsburgh?

[brooks_quichenick]

Pirates putting on a contact clinic in this inning. It would be enjoyable to watch if it wasn’t at the expense of the Brewers

[PinaMadness]

Rain like hell and let's make this game up some other day.

[Brew crew 92]

Pirates showing the crew what their missing, hitters thinking as a team, not as a selfish individual, sacrifice the power to go the other way, move the runner over, think only of, how do I get this run in? That half inning was a clinic to the brewers from Stearns on down.

[Eye Black]

Hoping for a win today (obviously), but with the Brewers offense scuffling recently it is becoming tougher to keep the hope in these sort of games playing from behind. Early in the season even when they got down big early it seemed like they would mount an offensive rally at some point. Hopefully they have one of those in them today.

Yep. I had the same exact feelings. They seemed relentless before. But when you look at it now the way they were scoring consistently was unsustainable. It’s really bad now. Like really bad

Lots of rain here in WI, too.

all the making of another shut out

Complacency has set in. Time to sell and fix the mistakes for next year.

[willie key]

I need to find some obscure comparison between the 1927 Yankees and the 2019 brewers to make everyone feel better

 

Which would in turn receive praise for how reasonable I am

 

 

Or maybe I can just give out hugs?

[PinaMadness]

Another one of those games where it feels I'm wasting three hours of a 75 degree clear, sunny day. If it wasn't for this sunburn from the 4th...

[PinaMadness]

Coshun is really terrible.

[willie key]

So what’s going through each players minds before their at bat today

 

A. Where am I going this week on break? Second house, resort, or timeshare

B. What should I do? Fish, lounge by swimming pool, or jet ski

C. Who am I spending it with? Family, girlfriend or the boys

D. All of the above

 

Oh crap. Swing.

[Eye Black]

Aguilar with a home run after missing a double by a couple of feet earlier. It is good to see his bat waking up.

[willie key]

Aguilar is coming back. Love it

 

 

That’s my guy

[brooks_quichenick]

Attaboy Jesús

[PinaMadness]

For those of you sick of the 1982 reunions and stories, the Pirates are having a 1979 night in a couple weeks.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Did you guys know that Mauricio Dubon is the first Honduran to be born and raised to play in the MLB?

 

Just wondering if you hadn't noticed Coshun mention it.....

You learn something every inning.

[phnxcrew]

Maybe Jesus can still get us something in a trade if he has a few hot weeks.

[KeithStone53151]

Not just the HR, the last 2 weeks or so he's looked better at the plate. Not constantly fidgeting with where to stand in the box and missing hittable pitches. Would be huge to be able to plug either him or Thames in the heart of the order on a daily basis. If some rest helps rejuvenate Cain and we can get back to Cain-Yelich-Moose-Aguilar-Grandal-Hiura-Braun-Dubon-P lineup...I think that lineup scores a lot of runs if they are right.

[PinaMadness]

Now it's up to our bullpen to hold a one run defecit.

It would be nice to get him an at bat

[willie key]

All star break at the wrong time for Aguilar
