2021-09-04: Cardinals (Kim) at Brewers (Houser) [Brewers win, 4-0 -- Houser deals a complete game shutout]

[yourout]

A couple of more runs would be nice.

[BruisedCrew]

Only 68 pitches for Hauser. He’s now in bonus inning range. Would be great if he can get one more.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Adames taken out of game?

[jason21nl]

Adames taken out of game?

 

Yup. They rushed him back too soon IMO. Same with Peralta and Escobar.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Adames taken out of game?

 

Guessing the quad is tight. I think we're going to see position players getting taken out for extra rest and to test defensive alignments a lot over the last month.

[PinaMadness]

Houser is really pounding the zone tonight. He’s pitching awesome.

[BruisedCrew]

That is huge getting through the top of the order for the third time with no damage. Goldschmidt and Arenado make me nervous.

[yourout]

Houser is really pounding the zone tonight. He’s pitching awesome.

And locating very well.

[jjfanec]

Tyler Mahle is at 106 pitches through 5 for the Reds tonight.

Hauser at 81 through 7.

 

What an incredible and efficient start so far

[LouisEly]

Couldn't have asked for a better start from Houser tonight. PH for him and then turn it over to the bullpen.

I think you stay with him. This bullpen needs a rest

[sixtolezcano16]

I’d like to see Houser pitch into the 8th. I think it is more important than a PH. Less than 50% chance with Craig managing.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Cain is batting 245? That’s half way respectable. Would’ve expected much lower.

[yourout]

Finally knock around the soft tossing lefty and now they cant hit the soft tossing righty.

What do I know.

[wallus]

Sosa with two of the worst looking strikeouts I have seen in a while. He must be really guessing up there.

[ThisIsMyCrew]

Ride the hot hand! Atta boy Houser!

[sixtolezcano16]

Will Houser pictch the 9th?

[yourout]

Send him back out.

[jjfanec]

Send him back out.

 

No reason not to!

[OldHeidelberg]

Will Houser pictch the 9th?

 

Shutouts still matter no doubt he gets a shot at it. Unlikely guy to break our drought but seems to have the stuff tonight.

[sixtolezcano16]

Need a Yelich HR.

[BruisedCrew]

I would have Hader ready at the first sign of trouble.

[stoutdude04]

I would have Hader ready at the first sign of trouble.

 

Agreed.

[jason21nl]

Yelich looks so fast on the bases but soooooo slow tracking down fly balls
