2021-07-07, Game 2: Brewers (Anderson) at Mets (Stock) [Brewers win, 5-0 -- Urías finishes DH going 4-for-7 with a BB and 2 HR]

[Simba2020]

Is anyone confident when they see Boxberger enter the game.

No, but I can say that with pretty much everyone in the bullpen.

[xisxisxis]

When Boxberger is off he couldn't get a little leaguer out...

[Eye Black]

Huge strikeout, at least you can envision an easier path out of this mess now.

[stoutdude04]

Bad feeling about Alonso here...

[Bulldogboy]

Don't hang a change here

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

When was the last time Box worked? I've got no issue with him starting the 6th here, but I do think CC has to be a bit quicker on the contingency, esp with a guy who might well be a bit rusty.

[rickh150]

One more….come on!

[Bulldogboy]

These pitches are too good for 0-2

[Eye Black]

So is Hader actually available for this game? I guess I’m wrong, maybe they are willing to have a guy pitch twice in the same day. Sort of funny you wouldn’t allow Hader to throw 4 outs, but he could pitch twice in the same day 4 hours apart.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Whew. Crisis averted.

[Simba2020]

Easy peasy.

[yfinn6]

I'd be pulling my hair out of the Brewers walked three straight times and then struck out three straight times.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Way to stick with him CC!

[HarveysWBs]

No runs, three straight Ks, just like you draw it up. [sarcasm]What’s everybody complaining about?[/sarcasm]

[Eye Black]

[sarcasm]Never doubted my guy Boxberger.[/sarcasm]

[JET15]

I knew all along, Boxberger was just toying with them

 

BLUE

[brewers888]

Boxberger and Suter both have to be moved down and Cousins, Sanchez, and Strickland need to be given the big innings.

[Underachiever]

Boxberger did a great job getting out of the jam caused by that clod who walked the bases full.

[Bulldogboy]

Great work by Box but still Counsell needs to be a bit quicker on the phone. You had the day off and you are playing 7 inning games. Get a guy up.

[Jopal78]

Boxberger has a little K-Rod in him, doesn’t start to pitch until he’s walked them loaded.

[brewers888]

Good thing he got out of it but Boxberger is a ticking time bomb.

Best line. You get the prize

[Eye Black]

Good thing he got out of it but Boxberger is a ticking time bomb.

That definition seems like it could fit 95% of relievers. They’re all going to blow up at some point.

[Bulldogboy]

Brewers could use 4 more runs here to make it safe.

Sure but he walks the tightrope seemingly everytime he pitches. How can anyone be confident in this guy.
