Game Thread (5/13/2022): Brewers (Burnes) at Marlins (Lopez) - 5:40 PM CDT

[nate82]

Umpires are getting worse at calling balls and strikes.  Yikes a ball completely in the strike zone called a ball.

[Brewcrew82]

Stallings, you're an idiot......

[HarryDoyle]

Another game, another bad strike zone from the umpire. Why are we still acting surprised?

[yourout]

Willy is in a really bad place at the plate right now.

I'm more surprised that there a lot of people that want to keep the human element in the game !

Burnes is pitching and the Brewers have 2 hits over 6 innings.  Well there's a surprise.

To be fair, they've faced some really good pitchers over the last few Burnes starts. Fried and Lopez are awesome, and other lineups are struggling against them just as much.

It’s like they’ve never seen a change up before

It's one of the best ones in the majors. Sometimes you face good pitchers in this league.

That Peterson AB being a perfect example.....woof.

[homer]

Lopez is very good.

[Brewcrew82]

Atta boy Burnes. Gave us 7 strong when our starters have struggled to go deep lately. That's what aces do. Now get the guy some runs!

[Brewcrew82]

That's absolutely terrible. Fire every single one of these guys. 

[yourout]

 

 

Embarassing performance by the plate ump.

[trwi7]

Feel like Williams' half inning could take as long the first 7 and a half innings.

[Brewcrew82]

Would have first and second with no outs right now if not for this embarrassment of an umpire...

[HarryDoyle]

Umpires need to be re-educated on what the strike zone is according to the rule book, not just have your own personal one. They also like to say they are not fooled by the catcher’s frame but it’s pretty obvious they are.

Screw the reeducation and just take things out of their hands with an automated strike zone. 

[yourout]

Straight to the eye doctor after this one for the plate ump.

[adambr2]

Seriously. Roboumps. It's already inevitable, just do it so these guys can stop embarrassing themselves. 

[homer]

dang, he smoked that pretty good

[Pugger]

This ump is pretty bad.  Thankfully it is still tied.  The Bucks game is getting out of hand.  ?

I think you’re fooling yourself if you, or anyone for that matter, think roboumps will solve everything. I really don’t trust the technology to be accurate and I can guarantee there will be unintended consequences.

[yourout]

Now watch the zone shrink to the size of a walnut.

[Pugger]

Williams makes me nervous...
