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]

[PinaMadness]

I would only pH if we get 2 on or 3 on for his at bat. Remember woodruff can actually swing it a little

No he can't. He is still living off that reputation because of a home run he hit three years ago.

[Bulldogboy]

Urias has the best ab on this team by a mile

[umphrey]

Hader needs to be the pitcher next time through Freeman Albies Riley

[The stache]

Woody can hit. Putting him at the plate is not a wasted AB. I keep him in for one more, because it's still tied, and there's a very good chance that this game goes to extra innings.

 

I sure wish we had Williams right now.

[MrTPlush]

Of course they will pitch Hader multiple innings in the postseason, especially with an off day tomorrow and the end of our season on the line.

 

I mean how do you not. If you lose at the hands of Hader, is what it is.

[roadcrew3]

Woodruff still only at 12 pitches....really think you need to ride him for as many outs as he can give, even if its only 1 or 2 in the 8th. Not sure Josh can get you through 9 if he starts the 8th

[titletownking]

Can Counsell be fired for letting Maile get multiple postseason at bats. In fact, more at bats than Tyrone Taylor.

[MrTPlush]

Season on the line…up is Like Maile…lol

Season on the line…up is Like Maile…lol

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Williams breaking his hand still makes me angry. Such a braindead move.

[yourout]

No way they score off of Matzek.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Edit: Double post. My bad.

[jjfanec]

Woodruff has to go the next inning if his spot doesn't come up. Very few pitches

[TURBO]

Woodruff still only at 12 pitches....really think you need to ride him for as many outs as he can give, even if its only 1 or 2 in the 8th. Not sure Josh can get you through 9 if he starts the 8th

 

 

yup, I feel the same.

 

Really, only 12 pitches?

[Bulldogboy]

Can Counsell be fired for letting Maile get multiple postseason at bats. In fact, more at bats than Tyrone Taylor.

It's amazing really. Jace too.

[TURBO]

Season on the line…up is Like Maile…lol

 

 

again...

[adambr2]

Here's Luke Maile again. I don't understand how anyone can think Counsell has managed this series well.

[Pugger]

If we go 3 up and 3 down put Woody back out there.

[titletownking]

Can Counsell be fired for letting Maile get multiple postseason at bats. In fact, more at bats than Tyrone Taylor.

It's amazing really. Jace too.

 

And gee, guess the result of the at bat? Does Craig even want to play anymore?

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Yeah, it's like having the third catcher is a new toy that must be played with....even though it sucks.

[MrTPlush]

I’d literally have rather had Woodruff hit lefty on lefty

[adambr2]

I was told the Brewer bullpen was far superior to the Braves. Sure doesn't seem like that bears out at all. Think we might have some bias there.

[The stache]

13 Brewers strikeouts.

 

Now Taylor is on deck?????? Now?

[titletownking]

Lo Cain I need you to put everything into 1 swing and give us this lead. Please.

[Fear The Chorizo]

It's amazing really. Jace too.

 

This really gets me too - particularly when your other two catchers are actually 2 of your better hitters recently. Just because you have 3 catchers on the roster doesn't mean you've got to burn them all up - and before the 8th inning no less
