2020-08-14: Brewers (Woodruff) at Cubs (Chatwood) [Brewers win, 4-3 -- Yelich 3-run HR proves the difference]

*Insert Bob Uecker*

 

THEY’VE GOT THE LEAD, OHHHH, WHAT A DOUBLE PLAY BY GAMEL!

[Eye Black]

Manny Piña, professional hitter.

[MrTPlush]

Jokes aside....this is what happens when you swing and put the ball in play.

[PinaMadness]

Pina can get hits in several ways.

[Eye Black]

I really, really want to see Urias come through with a hit here.

[Eye Black]

Awesome inning with THREE HITS... sort of hard to believe they only got one run (not really).

[markedman5]

Ok Woody.....can’t expect any more......good luck

[Underachiever]

And Juan Nieves opens a bottle of Champagne.

[BruisedCrew]

And now the Cubs decided to start hitting.

[folly412]

Now that there's been a hit I'll lodge a formal complaint on the strike zone tonight. It's literally four inches bigger all around. Obnoxious.

[PinaMadness]

It's now been 12,175 days since the Brewers last no hitter.

[BruisedCrew]

This AB by Kipnis pretty much insures that Woodruff won’t see the seventh inning.

 

And that the Brewers won’t win.

[markedman5]

Oh well

[PinaMadness]

When's the last time the Brewers had a shutdown inning?

[yourout]

Pretty bad location on some of those 0-2 pitches

[Eye Black]

I’ve watched some of the games in Buffalo where there was concern the stadium lighting wasn’t up to major league standards, and it really doesn’t look any worse than the night game lighting at Wrigley.

[yourout]

The wheels are coming off

[Eye Black]

Woody needs a strikeout of Happ in the worst way.

[PinaMadness]

Woody went from dominating to in jeopardy of not even making it out of the fifth in the blink of an eye. That Kipnis AB might be the turning point in the game.

[yourout]

Location has completely disappeared

[markedman5]

Cubs so good at working at bats and making a guy throw a bunch of pitches

[BruisedCrew]

Woodruff is done.

 

Rizzo will be putting this out of reach.

[Eye Black]

Woody went from dominating to in jeopardy of not even making it out of the fifth in the blink of an eye. That Kipnis AB might be the turning point in the game.

At bats like that are such an incredibly underrated part of the game. Just makes things miserable on a pitcher, and in the case of Woodruff clearly disrupted his rhythm.

[yourout]

Time for something more entertaining. There must be some Australian rules football on somewhere

[BruisedCrew]

No sooner said than done.
