2021-08-06: Giants (Webb) at Brewers (Burnes) [Brewers win, 2-1 in 10 innings -- Rowdy hits the walk-off winner in extras]

[phnxcrew]

Ugly swings at a simple slider. Nothing amazing happening out there guys

[yourout]

Some of the worst at bats the Brewers have had and the last 2 months.

How’s the Giants bullpen because we’re not doing crap against Webb.

The Giants have a very strong bullpen.

 

Given the state of the Brewers staff, they aren’t going to want to get in bullpen battles with the Giants.

I don't get why they can't hit this guy. He's got average velocity and pretty average stuff.

 

 

I mean, he's been pretty good this year. 3.33 ERA and a 3.34 fip in 14 starts. It's not like he's some schlub who hasn't had any success this season.

Kudos to Burnes for fighting through this last inning. Really needed it with the bullpen situation. Now win this one for Corbin boys!

[yourout]

Please not Norris.

I get that but he certainly doesn't wow you with a big arm or ridiculous stuff.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I expect this series is going to look like this--close games, low-scoring.

 

Brewers have the starting pitching edge, but going to need timely BP outings and clutch hitting to scratch out a win or two.

 

Best case scenario is that series in San Diego...

Well, we aren't the only team that's struggled against him.

This is going to be a great series

[Eye Black]

Leone has given up just 1 total hit over his last 7 appearances (6.1 IP), but he does walk some guys (including 5 BB over that same span).

[BruisedCrew]

The offense is going to have to step it up if the Brewers are going to get through these next two weeks. They don’t have the horses in the bullpen to win games with only 1 or 2 runs scored, especially once they have to start plugging in emergency starters.

[yourout]

Come on. That's not been a strike all night

[yourout]

Taylor might have to join kesten for a while

[wildcat83]

I see Amy has the guns out tonight.

 

How did you know it was her if she’s wearing a mask?

I never noticed the mask.

The Brewers are really going to be in a tough spot if they use Boxberger and Williams in a loss.

1-1 game in the 8th, you gotta go for it. Can't punt here.

[ecjimg]

Who pitches the 10th?

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Guessing the plan is:

 

Box, Williams, Suter...assuming they can stay tied or take the lead. Maybe Curtiss factors.

 

EDIT: Sanchez isn't a terrible option either, for the tenth if it gets there.

[yourout]

Getting Posey there is a big out

Lifetime 364 against the Brewers.

[titletownking]

Plan for the weekend is get one and then steal the second. Keeps you well ahead of Cincinnati and within striking distance of San Fran.

[jason21nl]

Cains bat doesn’t look like it has any pop left but he’s still got some wheels

[yourout]

I would be okay with a bunt here
