Good call, I stand corrected. Doesn't seem like it would be right based off Spanish vowel pronunciations and such.

What a story -- Jason Alexander!

That's AL-x-and-r !!! ?

Offense looks way better with Yelich getting on base ahead of Adames, Tellez, and Renfroe. 

I hope he stays there when Wong returns.

I was disappointed to hear that Wong had a setback in his rehab & is delayed in his return to the roster

Come on, let’s be fair. Water driven out of a faucet is way faster than Rowdy. 

[willie key]

We really need to win this game

[igor67]

Peterson aiming for game MVP.

[RWeeksFan23]

I like this Davis fella. Shows a good eye at the plate.

The old joke is that slow runners run like a water faucet - all in one place

but I agree water runs faster than Rowdy

[RWeeksFan23]

has anyone else lost the audio?

[Robocaller]

Alexander might be. a "two times through the order" kind of pitcher.

[Brewcrew82]

Take him out. They're putting together good swings now. 

[Brewcrew82]

Great job Sanchez. 

[RWeeksFan23]

Renfroe's homers are never cheapies.

[Brewcrew82]

Extra runs are always nice in this ballpark. 

[igor67]

You can never have too many Badger Mutual Insurance runs

[folly412]

105 mph EV for Renfroe.

I think you’re spoiled, about 80% of starters are two times through the order guys.

The Brewers have an inordinate amount of those 20% guys. 

[Brewcrew82]

I think I know why Tim Dillard loves Trevor Kelley so much....

I call bollocks!  Brewers fans can't possibly be spoiled until we've won 5 World Series in a 10 year span.

If Yelich can continue to be productive as the leadoff hitter then the Reds win the worst contract in the NL Central with Joey Votto.  Are they paying him for 30 or 40 more years?

[Robocaller]

The Jonathan Davis Era has started well.
