2020-08-23: Brewers (Burnes) at Pirates (Brubaker) [Brewers lose, 5-4 -- Pirates Polanco hits 2-run HR off Phelps in 8th]

[markedman5]

You’d think Reynolds was Tony Gwynn if you only watched him against us

[markedman5]

Well we have a lead with our big 3 rested......it would be be nice to give them a little cushion

[brewers888]

Yelich still doesn't look like himself for the most part.

[markedman5]

Yelich chasing pitches again.

[BruisedCrew]

Yelich is back in the doldrums. Nothing but Ks and weak ground outs.

[brewers888]

This offense is still pitiful. Better hope we don't give up another run.

[BruisedCrew]

Worst fly ball out call in history by Lepay........

 

I appreciate the challenge of calling a game from a remote location, but it’s better to wait a second to see what’s happening before bringing out the grand slam home run voice. When I first saw that I thought Garcia got jammed and hit a lazy fly ball. For a fraction of a second I thought maybe I had misjudged it.

Are they rested or rusty?

[markedman5]

I have no idea why Freddie is still in......

[brewers888]

Hader is clearly a one inning closer now. Really a waste of his talents.

[TURBO]

I have no idea why Freddie is still in......

 

Because CC likes to do things to mess with us...It's the only explanation for some of the tings he does. Btw, I'm not against giving Freddy another inning, but we have to get some mound time for the "big 3" as well.

I have no idea why Freddie is still in......

 

That's why.

[brewers888]

Freddy came through.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

"Good Freddy" is so much fun to watch pitch. I wish he showed up more often.

[brewers888]

Our best relievers are going to get rusty going so long between outings.

[markedman5]

I didn’t like it but give Freddie credit......he can strike guys out.

 

It just seemed so obvious to go Williams, Phelps and Hader for 1 each......it’s not like that would tax them after 4 days off.

On a related note, the Cubs are calling to see if Lepay is available.

[yfinn6]

Nice.

[trwi7]

Maybe they should've stayed with Freddy another inning.

[brewers888]

Nothing left to say at this point.

[markedman5]

Unreal

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

This team is kinda gross right now.

[Warning Track Power]

i just don’t understand why Hader wasn’t already in there with his limited workload. The whole team is slumping including Counsell.

[yfinn6]

Didn't even elicit an emotion from me, just expecting the worst at this point.

[Eye Black]

Nothing left to say at this point.

Now THAT, I’ll believe when I see.
