Game Thread (9/29/2022): Marlins (Garrett) at Brewers (Lauer) - 6:40 PM CDT

[HarryDoyle]

Doesn't matter. The season ended Sunday from what I heard.

[Sixtolezcano]

Lauer with a great start. 3 straight strikeouts.

[Oxy]

BA loves him some Tom Hallion ring ups...as do I

[Sixtolezcano]

• Counsell has gone mad. He has Yelich batting cleanup (1 for 27) yikes.

[Brewcrew82]

I approve of Mike Brosseau against LHP...

[mtrebs]

No matter how down Yelich’s offense may be, I’ll never get sick of seeing him run from 1st to home.

[Brewcrew82]

Go Keston!

So his kneecap is just fine then.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Brewers putting up some hits against the lefty starter.

[Brewcrew82]

And then he costs us a run....

I think so. I think it’s either a mental issue or some other physical issue (back?) that has altered his swing/approach.

If Yu Darvish is the mental issue then I agree.

[Brewcrew82]

Keston not having a banner week on the bases...

there's no way that throw away line from 4 years ago turned him from an MVP to an average-ish slap hitter.

Then what has?

something more plausible

I don't know. Maybe a back, Knee-cap recovery screwing up his swing, etc....

[trwi7]

Not sure about the Ich liebe Willy sign on TV but hey, Germans are into some weird ****.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Pretty hard not to feel good about things right now. A long way to go in this one but we have the rotation at full strength to make a last push here. And would you want to play the Brewers in a best of 3 with their starters?

[HarryDoyle]

Yes, I'm sure it was just a coincidence that Yelich went in the tank after Darvish's comments.

Didn't you learn in school that association/correlation does not equal causation??

[Simba2020]

Boy do I not miss seeing Garcia try to play RF. 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Would have ruled to bust this game wide open...just missed a huge inning there!

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Not to get ahead of myself but does anyone know the WC format? Is it 1-1-1? I have a wedding next weekend and I'm wondering if our home game would be Saturday, or do we have to force Game 3 to get home?

So this topic is fair game but Yelich's contract isn't? You need to update me with the rules of game threads.
