2019-08-16: Brewers (Houser) at Nationals (Corbin) [Brewers lose, 2-1 -- Houser pitches 7 innings allowing just 2 hits and 1 run; Crew strands 13 on base; Guerra allows winning run on Rendon double in the 8th]

[folly412]

Been waiting and hoping for Houser to put together back to back good starts. Really good tonight.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Was not a clean pick-up by Soto, so I’d put it at 25% chance of scoring, 20% higher that waiting for the hit.

 

Now you are just making things up.

 

Nats announcers noticed the same thing I did. Thought they would have sent Braun. %’s made up obviously, so your half right.

Nats announcers also rescinded that thought after looking at the replay during the inning break, noting that the ball got to Soto before Braun even reached third base.

And of course the Cubs who had struck out 9 times and had only two hits heading into the 8th inning, get a two run Triple from Tony Kemp off of Vazquez to take a 2-1 lead. Because of course....Pirates.

[Bulldogboy]

Just an unbelievably horrible AB for Hiura. I kept saying, “ok, he won’t swing at that pitch again.” And every time, that’s exactly what happened. Demoralizing.

Where are the veterans to say listen son. You gotta lay off that slider. Hitting coach? Anyone?

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Right handed pitcher equals runs?

[mtsportsfan]

Houser looking good tonight. Gotta reward him with a couple runs here.

[markedman5]

Gomes could have had coffee and a donut waiting on Braun.

 

Sending him would have gotten Seder roasted.....and rightfully so.

[MrTPlush]

6.03 ERA for the bullpen?! Wow....

[Bulldogboy]

Yelich is hurt. Simple.

[HarveysWBs]

Somehow, Yelich made Hiura look like Ted Williams. My goodness

[yourout]

That looked like a sore back at bat by Yelich.

[Brew crew 92]

Ok, then the chances of the C dropping the ball still better than this team getting another 2 out hit. Sad.

[mtsportsfan]

Very true.sad!

[HarveysWBs]

Moose and Grandal are playing themselves out of millions ever since June.

The chances of the Catcher tipping over from a heart attack are greater then back to back 2 out hits by the Brewers.

[yourout]

Moose and Grandal are playing themselves out of millions ever since June.

 

That would be an interesting trend chart.

[Bulldogboy]

This is where games like this get rough on the crew. Bullpen games are bad news for this team.

[MrTPlush]

Did we honestly need a full Baby Shark song before batting?

[nate82]

I hope I never have to hear that song ever again.....

[trwi7]

Gerardo Parra should be banned from mlb.

[markedman5]

Standing ovation for Houser!

 

If we lose it certainly isn't going to be his fault.

[sveumrules]

This is where games like this get rough on the crew. Bullpen games are bad news for this team.

 

The Nationals bullpen is worse than ours & will throw more innings in this game than ours will.

[yourout]

I hope I never have to hear that song ever again.....

 

My Granddaughter loves it.

[PinaMadness]

CC should let Houser go 20 innings if need be.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Great, great job bu Houser. Wow. This Nats bullpen is not good. Tome for a big hit from someone.
