2021-05-01: Dodgers (May) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 6-5 in 11 innings -- The Mayor delivers the walk-off winner]

[adambr2]

One of the most frustrating losses of the year in 2 minutes instead became one of the most rewarding victories. Gotta love baseball.

[Underachiever]

Hahahahaha! Most of you guys in this thread suck! 17-10! 102-win pace!!

[treego14]

Justin Turner should have signed with a winning team!

[Eye Black]

Where would be without Shaw this season?!? Who would have thought...

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Good pitching is more sustainable than good hitting.

[SeaBass]

Hey, look at us!

[yourout]

Feliciano drawing the walk was huge.

[Bulldogboy]

Imagine if we had Burnes tomorrow. Gulp.

[wallus]

What a cool first game memory for Mario.

[willie key]

This team has won 6 straight vs Padres and dodgers

If you would have told me this starting this stretch I would have thought you were crazy!

[SeaBass]

The Dodgers have to be feeling terrible right now and I kind of love that.

[Eye Black]

Feliciano drawing the walk was huge.

In his very first major league at-bat he draws a walk, and then his first trip around the bases ends with touching home plate in a dramatic walk-off. I love baseball.

No shame in losing to a better team.

[JET15]

Smith's 3B put the WE down to 5%

Mario's walk got us back to 50%

Keston's K put it back down to 20%

Avi's 1B put it at 60%

and you know the rest

 

Crazy

The runner starting at 2nd in extras makes things more exciting.

No doubt. That was intense. I'm sold

I wish you got one full inning to work with then go to this in the 11th. I like it.

Travis Shaw is going to have stretches where he looks terrible. But he is a good ball player overall. Gotta live with the bad for moments like this.

 

I'm not going to say he didn't come up big tonight, but he's a -.3 WAR player for the year (before today). He's got RBI's because he hits 4th or 5th and has a ton of RBI opportunities. He hasn't been "good" so much as he's been opportunistic.

[Eye Black]

Went back and watched the end over again. Angel Hernandez bending right over top of the plate with a bat in his hand as Feliciano slides into home plate has me cracking up for some reason. It’s exactly what he’s supposed to do, it’s just sort of funny when the errantly thrown ball is bouncing against the backstop at that point.

Glad the dodgers outfielders can’t throw worth a poop either. Great win!

His WAR took a slide during one of those terrible stretches I alluded to. The season is still young, and the kind of slump he was in can really bottom numbers like WAR out.

[Bulldogboy]

Both teams are gassed and tomorrow has the potential to be a slog. Brewers have more pen left. Dodgers have a stud starter.

[RobDeer 45]

What! A! Game!

 

That was so fun and a great team win.

Don't blame him on that last one. If he takes the time to turn and set himself, Feliciano scores easily. Really the only chance was grab it, sort of turn towards the plate and just chuck it and hope it's sort of on target.
