2020-08-21: Brewers (Houser) at Pirates (Kuhl) [Brewers lose, 7-2]

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

There's a start.

[LouisEly]

Houser is a reliever. *Cracks another Miller

Yep, relievers go 7IP only giving up one extra base hit.*Finishes off another Shiner.

[brewers888]

Thats one.

[CheezWizHed]

Smoak should've bunted...

[Bulldogboy]

Yelich looks like he's ready to go off. Good to see for sure. Why people are pitching to him is a mystery. He has nothing behind him.

[yourout]

That was not a strike.

But I do think that was a swing on strike 2.

[folly412]

Wonderful one strike strikeout for Gamel there.

[Eye Black]

Smoak should've bunted...

Yeah, I don’t care if you don’t bunt regularly, in a case like that they are basically giving you a hit on anything pushed to the left side.

...and 4 runs to a lousy team.

I don't even have a clue where we could be put to get some protection. Garcia has been a bit better, as has Hiura, but Narvaez not being able to hit his weight has been really rough. They were depending on him to be on of the better bats in the lineup.

[brewers888]

Narvaez weak ground ball nearly every at bat.

Never thought I would see a Brewer regular that hit worse than Travis Shaw last year.

[folly412]

I'd be tempted to send Narvaez to Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium. Nottingham can't be worse.

[PinaMadness]

Luckily we have the bottom of the order coming up.

Spring training the guy looked great. I don't know what happened but last year was a career year for him. Perhaps that was the best he's got.

Maybe Haines is the issue. Shaw looks better this year and Aguilar is also hitting well.

[PinaMadness]

Nice to see one team takes advantage of shifts.

[yourout]

Narvaez weak ground ball nearly every at bat.

 

His bat path is terrible. Everything is an upper cut(excessive launch angle) no matter the pitch and location.

Part of the reason Yelich struggled early was he had the same problem. If you want his swing lately its much more on plane and a lower finish( below the shoulder)

[CheezWizHed]

Just setting up the triple play!

Not sure if he is the issue but he sure isn't the answer.

[pacopete4]

I think we’ve seen too many take steps back offensively and then go elsewhere and do well. Andy Haines just has to be the fall guy even if he really doesn’t play much a role in it.

[yourout]

Reynolds is going to be a Brewer killer for the next decade.

[PinaMadness]

[RollieTime]

Just setting up the triple play!

 

Triple bagger*?

[Eye Black]

The pressure is certainly going to be on the Brewers now, they really need to leave Pittsburgh with two wins.
