2020-08-16: Brewers (Lindblom) at Cubs (Lester) [Brewers win, 6-5 -- Urías & Arcia combine for 6 hits, 2 triples, HR, 5 runs scored]

[Eye Black]

Luis Urías comes to the plate this inning sporting a 157 wRC+ in 2020.

 

Yes, that’s only 17 plate appearances.

[folly412]

Stearns might not have gotten fleeced by San Diego after all, eh?

Just went up.

[Eye Black]

Urias and Arcia are the Brewers best hitters. Don’t @ me.

[Zad Fnark]

Maybe the Wendy Wailers will shut up now.

[PinaMadness]

Is the top of the order taking notes? No wonder we can't score until the third inning.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

LOL ... I truly think watching Urias is making Arcia a better ballplayer. The shine will wear off at some point, but for the first time in his career, Arcia finally has someone on his heels.

[markedman5]

Oh that’s a sweet swing......my goodness

[homer]

Maybe the Wendy Wailers will shut up now.

 

Wendy Selig Prieb?

Yep, now a 199 wRC+ in 2020.

[Zad Fnark]

 

Wendy Selig Prieb?

 

[homer]

Not sure I like running in front of Yelich unless it's a hit and run.

[BruisedCrew]

Not a fan of trying to steal with Yelich at the plate. Make it and you invite the opponent to pitch around him.

[Zad Fnark]

Strike zone seems to be growing.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Lindblom has crazy movement on some of that junk he's throwing.

[markedman5]

Lindblom’s best inning as a brewer. Finally seeing so.e if that great command we were told about.

[Underachiever]

First four outs, three by strikeout, on 15 pitches. Twenty pitches thru 2. I try to be positive, but so hard to watch this team hit.

So...I made a quick run to the hardware store. What’d I miss?

Ran upstairs to put in the new faucet, Arcia hits a home run.

[CheezWizHed]

Ran upstairs to put in the new faucet, Arcia hits a home run.

 

Well, you played the odds right, but still lost.

[markedman5]

He lost it quickly.......maddening

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I don't get it. Lindblom looks terrific in the 5th, then comes out for the 6th and can't find the zone. Frustrating.

[yourout]

Ugh.

[markedman5]

Bases loaded on no hits.....Christ

[Eye Black]

The Cubs load the bases without putting a ball in play. This doesn’t seem like it’s going to end well.

 

Edit: Need a ground ball in the worst way.

 

Edit #2: Or a strike out.

 

Edit #3: Sigh.

[yourout]

Just can't hand out free bases like that.

[markedman5]

Figures.....’
