2021-10-12 (NLDS Game #4): Brewers (Lauer) at Braves (Morton) [Brewers lose, 5-4 -- Freeman’s 8th inning HR off Hader breaks tie, and hearts]

[owbc]

We could have swept this series with a bad offense. The reality is that the offense is beyond bad, it's completely absent.

[jjfanec]

Why didn't Avi slide there?

Why didn't Avi slide there?

He was doing his Ben Oglivie impression.

[owbc]

Morton looks done, please get a run before they go to the bullpen.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Need to get that runner home.

[MrTPlush]

Unleash a 3-0 swing Urias

[Simba2020]

He need to take advantage, Charlie is tiring, or it would appear.

[bucks2281]

Don’t screw this up

[OldSchoolSnapper]

If we don't score here, and then hang a donut on this pen for 5 innings, I'm at peace with the result. It would be so inept and pathetic that going home is exactly what we deserve.

That is NOT the fundamentals of baserunning ... lucky there.

Bottom of 2nd, runners on 1st and 2nd, one out. Broken bat fly ball out to Yelich. He catches it. The runner at 2B had taken off on contact. Yelich lobs it to Wong who touches the base and tags Freeman, who was on 1st before, at about the same time…..

 

If Wong would have tagged Freeman first, before touching the bag, the run would have been allowed to score UNLESS the team would have appealed the play (not left the field of play) to get a 4th needed out!!! Check it out…. Not talked about.

 

Yup, that would've been the rare time where a 4th out in an inning would've been possible.

 

I'm following everything up until the appeal portion. What is this?

 

Stepping on 2nd base would be the appeal (As you would be appealing the tag up, which obviously he left before the ball was caught). If you never step on 2nd, the runner successfully tags up from 2nd and the run counts.

Just got home and opened a beer. The next thing that happened was Morton throwing that error to first. I'm going to keep drinking and see what happens.

[yourout]

Error and a walk. Let's see if they can turn that into some runs

[tmwiese55]

Hard to believe were at this point but I'd probably pick Urias as the guy I'd want up most in a run scoring opportunity. I know Wong has been bad this series, but that would probably be my close call as he's just generally gonna give a good AB

[nate82]

Urias pre swing stance looks like he is trying to be something between Counsell and Youkilis.

[Baldkin]

Yelich should not be playing OF next year. He sucks in just about every way. Makes me wish we still had Braun running around.

The curse of posing nude in ESPN Magazine and then dissing a concerned mom who thought he wasn't role modeling well ... hmmm ...

 

I watched Roxanne, the movie, last night to try to remove this curse

Coach Cooper would have fined him, then benched him, then fined him again...

Mound visits are 30 seconds! Let’s go!!!!

I'm hoping we have to send you the detox after the game if that's the case.
