Thx Oxy

Love seeing this happen after what happened between innings.

I missed this...what'd I miss?

 

I saw Contreras barking at the Brewers dugout briefly...something with that?

[pacopete4]

Perfect bunt there by Arcia to score Gamel. Must not have been a called play.

Players from both benches were jawing at each other and Rizzo and Yelich among others came just outside the dugouts and yelled back and forth at each other.

[Eye Black]

This would be a good time for Yelich’s first hit of the season.

[stoutdude04]

Would be nice to get a runner on 3rd with no outs in...but hey...this wouldnt be the Brewers otherwise!

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Should’ve had at least three that inning. But the offense did show up.

[BruisedCrew]

Arcia gives up an out.

 

Stranding a runner on third with none out takes the good feeling out of the inning.

Yup. I was shocked when I saw Gamel held up. That bunt was absolutely perfect.

[MrTPlush]

Not exactly a perfect bunt if you are the only one aware of it...pretty much gave the Cubs a free out and possibly costed us a run. Makes it tough on Gamel if you just decide to safety squeeze without warning.

[pacopete4]

Time to flip flop Gamel and Yelich in the order.

[adambr2]

Unbelieveable how inept we are year after year driving in a runner from 3rd with nobody out.

[stoutdude04]

I joined in late. I take it Burnes started off rough? Looked decent the last couple innings. What did Cain do to the Cubs?

 

Got in a rundown. Then got out of the rundown the same way he did last year against the Cubs.

Right that was a bad play and let Darvish off the hook.

They got two RISP in that inning. Considering how last season went in that department, it's hard to complain about that.

Yep. The bunt itself was perfect. The play was an abject failure.

[adambr2]

Someone on the Brewers really needs to be a good teammates to Burnes already and tell him he's had a booger hanging the last couple innings.

 

Well, too late now.

That is a cotton plug of some sort cause he had a bloody nose.

[SeaBass]

What struck me in the last couple ABs by Arcia is he needs to be just as zen when hitting with men on base as he was yesterday when nobody was on. Classic Arcia abandoning all common sense when he sees an opportunity for a big hit.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Caratini is slow. Thankfully.

[Eye Black]

I absolutely love Keston Hiura, but my heart skips a beat everytime he winds up to make throw from the middle of the diamond.

[owbc]

Nice to have Suter back

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Hiura playing in the shifted infield on the left side of second base challenges his throwing ability.
