Game Thread (5/06/2022): Brewers (Lauer) at Braves (Chavez) - 6:20 PM CDT

I'd like an explanation from Craig on why on earth he doesn't look at that, and an explanation from the homeplate umpire on why a player can just turn around and make something up and he believes it.

I must be the Renfroe jinx.  It seems that every time I catch his AB he makes an out.  Tonight he's 2 for 4 and I saw 2 outs.  He has an OPS over 0.700 and I swear I don't remember a single hit.

Lauer channeling his inner Burnes with that beauty of a backdoor cutter.....

I know we want to keep the human element in the game , but that wasn't even close to a foul tip.

We do? To hell with the human element.

What I love about Lauer is that not only is pitch great , but he doesn't use a lot of pitches to do it.

Any chance Lauer goes 8IP tonight?

That dream ended fast.

Some bell ringing is warranted for that DP.

Atta boy Box.

Box, you have not gotten enough love for what you've done for us since last year. Let me stop that right now by saying, "I love you!".

Took me a long time to come around on him too.

I’m so confused why they didn’t review that awful foul tip call against Urias. It was clear it never came anywhere near the bat.

But it was within 2 inches so I bet he gets it graded as ok.

The thing is it probably was just as bad twenty years ago , but back then at least we got see the manager come out and go ballistic more often . talk about theatrics ! Fun !

[Eye Black]

Because the Gruber commercials every single break isn’t quite enough we now get between batters in-game One Call, That’s All reminders. 

EDIT: The Gruber jinx just struck. 

[Brewcrew82]

I wouldn't mind Hader pitching in the bottom of the ninth with a 4 run lead, but I don't think Counsell will do it.

[Brewcrew82]

Don't understand how neither Rowdy's, Yelich's, or McCutchen's didn't get out, but that one somehow did....

Home field humidor?

[folly412]

Rowdy exhibiting that 2nd percentile speed there ?

[HarryDoyle]

Who's this #71 pitching for us now?

Nice to get a win outside of of the NL central. 

[willie key]

Those braves uniforms are the best

Dale Murphy vibes 

[Eye Black]

Last year Adames showed up in May to jump start the offense, is this year’s igniter the return of Luis Urias?
