2019-07-17: Braves (Keuchel) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers win, 5-4 -- HR’s for Piña and Yelich; Hiura hits a pair of doubles; Brewers hold on late]

[Diamondbacks]

Hiura is ridiculous. All that hype about him being a Braun-level hitter upon call-up might have been warranted.

 

I don't think you could have drawn up more of a prototype for what this lineup was lacking. Hits to all fields, gives you good at bats, and best of all, his right-handed stick balanced the lineup in a big way. I would hope that the K rate will subside at some point.

Ya, that K rate is slowly going down, been alot better lately. Now would love to see him in front of Yelich or behind.

[Diamondbacks]

Ummmmm....come on

[stoutdude04]

Back 2 back pinch hit jam singles. Come. On.

[Diamondbacks]

Now Freeman is gonna get a chance unless a DP

This game about to be tied up

 

Got I hope I’m wrong

That thought is gross

[Diamondbacks]

Please dont walk him

[BruisedCrew]

Another shaky outing from Hader since the AS break and the reported back problem.

[Diamondbacks]

Great play Aggy

without bad luck this game would already be over - the two hits he gave up were jokes

Because of two singles both hit off their fists?

[tmwiese55]

Hiura's short compact swing is tough to think of similar ones. Trout is the best I can think of, maybe Jeter. obviously good comps there. Not a lot of people have similar swings

 

Let's just end this now.

[KeithStone53151]

I agree those hits were a bit unlucky, but Hader hasn't been super sharp since the break. Hopefully he can turn it around.

Gulp

[wildcat83]

This AB alone worth the price of admission. Wish there weren’t two guys on base for it!

[Diamondbacks]

Bill, " the only brave that has a base hit against hader" talking about Freeman. Short term memory loss obviously, forgot about the 2 this inning

[Diamondbacks]

Heck yes!!

[Diamondbacks]

OMG....HAHAHAHAH

[jason21nl]

Oh so this is how it's going to go

[Diamondbacks]

Donaldson, besides Freeman, the last guy I wanna see right now

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Nothing is every easy with this team. Nothing.

[stoutdude04]

Could be demoralizing...

[KeithStone53151]

I never thought CC would age, but I'm pretty sure he has gray hairs all over his head right now just from the last 3 innings.....

[Diamondbacks]

Shaking my ****** head

[jason21nl]

At least it didn't leave the park
