That looked like old Yelich right there!  

COuld this crappy Cubs staff be the magic elixir that gets him going? He looks good tonight.

[edfunderburk]

That’s two excellent swings by Yelich tonight … reminiscent of 2018-2019

"Yelich is late on everything" makes a lot of sense when both homers were changeups left up.

[HarryDoyle]

As long as Ross continues to leave Hendricks in the game, Hader won't even have to warm up.

[Brewcrew82]

Boy I really really really really really hope that that is the start of something for Yelich. Beautiful, majestic drive. 

[Brewcrew82]

Like replacing Hendricks with Daniel Norris is going to stop the Brewers home run surge!

[edfunderburk]

Is this our first 3-HR game of the season (game 21)?

I think it's our first home run week.

I'm old enough to remember when Hendricks pitched a complete game shutout on opening day against the Brewers.

Adames, Rowdy & Brosseau all homered in game 3 at Wrigley.

[sveumrules]

It is our first 4-HR game of the year though.

[folly412]

That's the Daniel Norris I remember.

Aww, where'd you go?

The good baseballs must have been shipped to Milwaukee.

[magnoliacrew]

Let Houser hit. I'm feeling the HRs tonight.

[Brewcrew82]

Now, if we can somehow avoid a Josh Hader appearance, all will be well in Brewer land tonight. 

[magnoliacrew]

Let's hit Contreras here to complete the perfect night.

[jason21nl]

Wong has been really sloppy this year

Just another ho-hum outing from a Brewers starting pitcher.
