2021-09-08: Phillies (Gibson) at Brewers (Peralta) [Brewers win, 4-3 -- Escobar go-ahead HR proves the difference; Crew cuts magic number to 10]

[jjfanec]

Swinging at too many balls so far. Letting Gibson off the hook

[umphrey]

There goes our plate discipline, right out the window

[BruisedCrew]

Five straight balls to Narvaez and the count is 3-2.

 

Then he delivers a double on ball 6.

[jason21nl]

That pitch has to be hard to pick up. Both Yelich and Narvaez swinging at balls way inside

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

That first pitch of the AB messed with Yeli.

 

Gibson's thrown like 20 pitches and maybe 5 zone strikes.

[jjfanec]

According to GameDay Gibson has thrown 2 pitches in the zone so far

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

According to GameDay Gibson has thrown 2 pitches in the zone so far

 

And I thought I was exaggerating. Didn't realize it was to make Gibson look better.

Man....need to stop helping him.

[umphrey]

Well at least he hit ball 4

This

[jjfanec]

Still only 2 pitches in the zone. 2nd ball they called a strike

[jason21nl]

Time to hit this first pitch fastball that’s coming

 

Well it was a fastball. Just not close

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Got two runs in. Time for the big hit from Cain…or not.

[BruisedCrew]

Some of those pitches weren’t missing by much but the last one did.

[BruisedCrew]

Cain has to take one of those outside pitches to right center.

 

Or just wave at it helplessly.

[jason21nl]

That’s one awful AB by Cain

[LouisEly]

Cain swinging at a pitch out of the zone on an 0-2 count.

 

And in other news, grass is green.

[brewcrewdue80]

Just stopping in. Man seems opponents lately find a way to hit HRs that go under 370feet. Meanwhile Brewer hitters seem to need 395 or more for it to be HR. Anything less is an out.

[MrTPlush]

That was so pathetic Cain….so so sad.

[BruisedCrew]

Bradley really needs to learn how to take HBPs.

[BruisedCrew]

Let Gibson off the hook.

[MrTPlush]

Two garbage ABs in a row and not only do we not get anymore runs, but now we start the 2nd with the pitcher.

[jason21nl]

That was so pathetic Cain….so so sad.

 

JBJ says hold my beer.

[adambr2]

That inning was going quote well until our nightmarish CF duo came up to bat.

[yfinn6]

Cain and Bradley back-to-back should never happen again.
