2021-10-08 (NLDS Game #1): Braves (Morton) at Brewers (Burnes) [Brewers win, 2-1 -- Rowdy provides a run saving defensive play early and hits a 2-run HR late; Burnes pitches 6 scoreless innings]

[BruisedCrew]

Given that Houser has pitched a clean inning and Peralta can be wild I’d probably have Houser at least start the inning.

 

But, I don’t get paid the big bucks to make those decisions.

[FVBrewerFan]

Won't happen, but if Houser looks this good through 8, I trot him out in 9th.

[PinaMadness]

Nice pearl necklace, Joc.

[magnoliacrew]

That's a cute pearl necklace Joc Pederson has on.

[dlk9s]

Oh man, for a second I thought there was a guy on base. This is the happiest I've felt after an opponent homer.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Did not think he got that.

what a d-bag Edited October 8, 2021 by 82brewcrew82

[adambr2]

Well it's set up for Josh.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Still have the lead. Need at least a tack-on run. Big crooked number even better.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Whew.

 

Alright. Add-on would be nice, bit this is the script.

[HarveysWBs]

This just in: Joc Pederson is still obnoxious.

[nate82]

I just started watching and that purple background on the CF batters eye is that just a graphic or did they put that up there? That would be a horrible batters eye if it is not a graphic on TV.

[PinaMadness]

And Joc instantly becomes a member of my Enemies List.

[OldHeidelberg]

Well it was a risk letting Houser pitch to a lefty in a tight late inning game, thought he had him at 0-2 though and still have the lead.

[Junkball Jim]

He's a bonafide putz.

Obviously a TV graphic. The same effect was a thing for 2018 too…eye sore on TV though.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Lots of Brewers pop-ups.

 

Hope Josh is ready.

[MrTPlush]

Adames gets on so we can be disappointed in Yelich one more time today.

 

(Prays for jinx)

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Avi for three would be optimal.

[MrTPlush]

Avi for three would be optimal.

 

Three…strikes and you are out.

[OldHeidelberg]

Let's go Josh. Man I am nervous...

[adambr2]

Can't. Do. That.

[PinaMadness]

Oh those bases on balls.

[dlk9s]

Man, I had a feeling Hader would be overamped and walk the leadoff guy.

[OldHeidelberg]

That's where the homer hurt, couldn't go after Freeman like you want to
