2021-08-15: Brewers (Lauer) at Pirates (Peters) [Brewers win, 2-1 -- Crew bullpen covers 5 innings while allowing just 1 hit and 1 walk]

[BruisedCrew]

That was a meek inning from the heart of the order.

That was a meek inning from the heart of the order.

 

You mean that straight as an arrow fastball to Yelich wasnt the best pitch of the inning?

[JET15]

Urias is better under pressure

[Eye Black]

Great play by Urias on both the stop and getting into position to make the throw.

[Eye Black]

Pirates are reportedly signing Yoshitomo Tsutsugo. Here’s hoping he goes on to be known as the biggest Reds killer of them all.

[markedman5]

Great play by Urias……another scoreless inning for Box.

 

Let’s get some runs…..asking your pen to throw 5 scoreless is asking a lot.

[OldHeidelberg]

Going to have to sweat this one out, Pirates seem a little better than the Cubs. Or at least are still trying.

Yeah they are definitely more competitive than the Cubs.

Well. Let’s hope,that continues against the reds and cardinals

 

I don’t have much faith in that

[HarveysWBs]

Eat that, shifted infield. [sarcasm]Why don’t they do that every time there’s a shift?![/sarcasm]

[PinaMadness]

We're gonna have to do this the hard way, huh?

[Eye Black]

With the top of the order due up, including Bryan Reynolds, this would be a great inning to use Josh Hader… if they still did that sort of thing.

[wibadgers23]

Definitely a Sunday effort from the offense.

[Eye Black]

Alright Willy… that’s more like it. Nice play.

[Eye Black]

Devin Williams needs 6 pitches to saw through the top of the Pirates order. That’ll play.

[PinaMadness]

Alright, let's get Hader up in the pen so we can score 10 runs and he can sit down again.

[JET15]

Got beyond Gamel and Reynolds... win probability goes way up

[markedman5]

Reynolds out on a tapper to,the mound…….that’s a nice inning from Devin who has been quietly excellent for quite awhile.

[BruisedCrew]

Here’s hoping Hader has command in his first high leverage outing in two weeks. No margin for walks or gopher balls.

[titletownking]

Big first out for Hader getting Moran to strikeout.

[rickh150]

One more…

[titletownking]

Enjoy the off day tomorrow boys. Up at least 8 on the Reds and a chance to put the red birds away for good. Go Crew!

[Underachiever]

Boxberger: 10 pitches

Williams: 6 pitches

Hader: 12 pitches

 

Nice work. As drama-free as a one-run game could be.

[phnxcrew]

Fastball only

Hader is back. Just lucky there

[markedman5]

Big Win! Credit to the pitching staff today……
