2019-08-13: Twins (Pérez) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers lose, 7-5 -- Grandal hits go ahead 3-run HR in 7th; Hader serves up first pitch 3-run HR in 8th]

[yourout]

5 for last 41 with RISP

[Bulldogboy]

There's the cherry on top with our roster management vs LHP. Having to constantly use lefties on lefties for pinch hitters because we have no righties to use.

They could have used Arcia but chances are he would not put the ball in play.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Trey Supak tonight ... 2/3 of an inning, 8 ERs. Woof!

 

 

But was Freitas catching?

 

Yes, and obviously has done a terrible job pitch calling, but he is 1-1, ave up to .385 now.

 

1-2, just hit into a double play.

 

He'd fit right in tonight!

[treego14]

2-21 with 11 strikeouts for Gamel's most recent AB's ...

[yfinn6]

Good job of hanging there by Lo on that 3-1 pitch.

[willie key]

Can we send Cain down too.

[Bulldogboy]

The flipside to Grisham taking playing time is Gamel seems in a funk. Don't really blame him but dude is kinda useless right now.

[phnxcrew]

I see I haven’t been missing anything other than a terrible offensive game again. Puke

[folly412]

Leadoff double: chase ball in dirt to pull grounder to short, strikeout, strikeout.

[adambr2]

When you're a bad hitter, and Keston Hiura and Christian Yelich are on deck with 2 outs, don't chase Ball 4. Twice.

[Bulldogboy]

The Cain contract is going to be a bad deal isn't it?

[Brewcrewin07]

16-84 with RISP this month

[ReverendBrewmeister]

0 for 10 with RISP through 6 innings. Ridiculous performances lately in that situation.

[treego14]

Leadoff double: chase ball in dirt to pull grounder to short, strikeout, strikeout.

It could be worse ... at the Hong Kong airport.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

The Cain contract is going to be a bad deal isn't it?

 

The guy was a legit star last year. If they can get his bat back to league average, while maintaining his elite defense, it's a good contract. That is a big if though.

[adambr2]

I'm not even that mad at the players (besides Cain). When you did nothing to upgrade at SS and you loaded your entire roster with lefties, what's going to happen?

 

This guy is the scrub of scrub lefties, been giving up HRs left and right, and he cut right through our lineup for 6 innings like it was nothing.

[phnxcrew]

I thought “Cain has been stinging the ball”. Not showing up in the box score

[markedman5]

The Brewers are already 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position through the first six innings tonight (one of those outs produced a run).

 

5-for-35 (.143) with RISP on the homestand, 16-for-84 (.190) this month.

 

Per Mccalvy

[willie key]

i will say one thing. The cubs are horrible on the road

[adambr2]

Well, at least 3 more shots this inning with RISP. Buckle up.

 

Hope you put those seatbelts on, because Pina didn't move a base.

[willie key]

I thought “Cain has been stinging the ball”. Not showing up in the box score

 

 

Cain has earned my anger this year. His at bats aren’t even good or professional.

[Bulldogboy]

Are we saving Williams for something? Dude has only pitched once and looked good doing it.

[yourout]

Faria is about to empty the stands.

[willie key]

Have the fans started booing yet? Or is it all twins fans there tonight

[brewmann04]

San Antonio have been struggling lately
