2021-08-18: Brewers (Peralta) at Cardinals (Flaherty) [Brewers win, 6-4 in 10 innings -- Freddy leaves game with shoulder discomfort; Bullpen covers 8 masterful innings as Crew completes comeback in extras]

[Eye Black]

Reyes walking 42 in 52.2 innings this season seems pretty incredible for a closer.

[oldguy]

Count me as relieved and happy. He did a great job bearing down.

From the K-Rod school of closer effectiveness, apparently

[markedman5]

Ridiculous

[HarveysWBs]

What a dumpster fire. Ridiculous

[markedman5]

Can’t wait to see the umpire report card for this guy tomorrow

 

Can somebody remember to post it?

[pacopete4]

Absolute garbage.

[Eye Black]

This home plate umpire is just guessing tonight. Pathetic.

[HarveysWBs]

Garcia!!!

[markedman5]

Aviiii

[igor67]

The classic strike in the opposite batter's box

[pacopete4]

Wow.

[oldguy]

Hit the first pitch and don’t let the empire play into it. Ha ha Ha ha ha this game is something else

[Eye Black]

Need to make Reyes throw enough pitches that he won’t be back in the 10th.

 

Well at least JBJ will be a good extra runner if they make it the 10th.

[rickh150]

JBJs moment of 2021?

[oldguy]

Actually you don’t even need a robot the Homeplate umpire can stay there he’s just got a buzzer in his right hand if it goes off it’s a strike if it doesn’t ball it’s that simple

[Underachiever]

JBJ got some of that one.

[rickh150]

JBJs moment of 2021?

Na

[wildcat83]

Ump is garbage

 

Avi is a beast!

 

O’Neil is a freak athlete, like a 40” vertical climbing the wall after that one.

[wildcat2237]

JBJs moment of 2021?

 

Nah.

[tomwopat]

Who's the Brewers' emergency catcher in case Pina gets hurt or ejected?

[Eye Black]

This is the situation [on the road] where I would use Hader in extra innings. The best case scenario is just getting to the next inning, I’d rather take my chances with someone else in the 9th to increase the odds of winning in the 10th if it gets that far.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I think it is important to note that Avi Garcia's .OPS is nearing .840. He's a good player.

[pacopete4]

You gotta get to the 10th for any of it to matter. That and it being their heart of the order. I’m glad they stick to their thought on this. Can’t imagine how many games we might’ve blown in the 9th trying to be cute.

Yes. And both him and narvaez had a great bounce back season
