2021-08-22: Nationals (Nolin) at Brewers (Houser) [Brewers win, 7-3 -- Escobar leaves with hamstring injury]

[Eye Black]

Can we please

Stop sucking against average and bad lefties? What in the crap already

They have had 8 base runners (5 hits, 3 walks) through the first 11 outs so far, it seems like it’s been some bad luck sequences more than sucking.

[JET15]

If Nolan would plunk JBJ, we'd be in business. But somehow I think this will be the end of the inning.

 

OK, that'll do

[PinaMadness]

Can we please take advantage now?

[yourout]

If Nolan wants to walk the two worst guys in the lineup you need to make him pay.

[PinaMadness]

Can we please take advantage now?

Yes we can!!!

[82brewcrew82]

There's the big hit.

[BruisedCrew]

There’s a big hit.

Mr clutch Kolton Wong

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Wong with a big game today. Key to the offense so far.

[JET15]

I kinda like this Wong kid

You must be mistaken. When I mentioned a few weeks ago that the Brewers had trouble against lefty starters I was told that I didn’t know what I was talking about.

 

And just like that...they score two runs

[HarveysWBs]

Imagine being a franchise with designs on competing this year and a fair amount of resources and deciding Kolten Wong just isn’t in your plans. That has to suck. You love to see it.

[Eye Black]

Wong is incredible… and there is something extra special about it knowing how much it has bothered some Cardinals fans. I also saw that he has 7 career home runs to leadoff a game, and 5 of those have been this season.

[homer]

I really love Kolton Wong. His energy is off the charts.

[JET15]

Willy at the plate

Yep. And now 3 runs in 4 innings. 6 hits and 3 walks. Today’s not the day to bark about sucking against anyone.

[yourout]

Man I hate seeing guys take called third strikes with runners in scoring position and two outs.

Three runs is a good start. We have guys that hit left handed pitching extremely well, especially the junk ballers

We’ve seen lately. I’ll bark until they consistently beat up these guys-teams have been throwing out lefties against specifically because of our troubles. It’s well known.

[82brewcrew82]

That one is on Escobar.

[markedman5]

Friggin Lane Thomas again

[wildcat83]

Stearns goes into the booth with Uecker and the radio just randomly cut to commercial with 1 out.

[Underachiever]

Can they just hit Lane Thomas, please?

[Eye Black]

So let me get this straight, the Cardinals traded Lane Thomas for two months of Jon Lester… on purpose?!

[phnxcrew]

That one is on Escobar.

 

the way rowdy has hit lefties and played good defense I think we can at least split time at 1b against lefties. It’s costing us quite a bit

[rickh150]

Wow, Ashby throwing 98 with tons of movement.
