Not a good decision, Willy.

Well, if Yeli's ever going to be back, those are the types of hits you'd see. Pulled line drives..

I don’t think that’s really true. 

Before  he started hitting a lot of HRs in the second half of 2018 a lot of his hits were to left center. 

Even when he started hitting HRs a lot of them were to left center and straight away center.

Rowdy was definitely looking changeup on that 2-0 because Wacha gave him a very meaty fastball and he was fooled.

Yelich pulled only 5 flyballs all of last season...Had a lot more in 2018/2019.

My point is that he was much more of a spray hitter than a pull hitter even at his best. The big thing is getting some elevation instead of pounding the ball into the ground. 
 

If someone knows where to find a spray chart of Yelich’s 2018 season I think you’ll find that more of his HRs were to left center and center than to right center and right. 

My heart sings when I see him stroking a ball to the gap in left center. 
 

 

[willie key]

Yelich hit a homer.    Yeah

[HarryDoyle]

I will be interesting to see how long Wacha is going to be in this game.

Checking in late to GameDay. What a great start. Brewers need this ump traveling with them. Guy's at 6-0 in favor of Brewers.

Let's see another 4-6 runs and make it an easy pitching night.

[HarryDoyle]

This seems like a throwaway game for the Padres now.

[willie key]

Voit has turned into prime ichiro tonight

[TURBO]

Padres sporting the WORST uniforms in professional sports.  They wore these last year, ok, it was a mistake.  Wearing them a 2nd year and it has now become a travesty.

The catcher looks like a Peep.  You know, the marshmallow candy?

You could say the same thing about the Brewers lame city jerseys. Probably every other team's too.

[BruisedCrew]

After the late night last night, I think I might retire early tonight.

If the Brewers blow this one, I don’t need to see it.

[torts]

I love these unis.

I actually like their jerseys more than the Brewers city jerseys. Completely agree that the catcher looks obnoxious though.

[TURBO]

You guys have to be yanking my chain, there is no way you can like these uniforms.   They look like a junior high girls softball team. 

Just absolutely hideous.  An embarrassment to MLB.

The Brewers city connect jerseys are not on this level of suckiness,  At least they looked like our old powder blue jerseys, so not that much of a stretch.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Why did Yeli do that.

[HarryDoyle]

Everything going right for the Crew tonight.

 

POUR IT ON!!!!

[HarryDoyle]

Is Rowdy good again?

[willie key]

That should do it

[wiguy94]

Rowdy is on fire!

[folly412]

Pair of Would It Dong 30/30 🔒s on those Rowdy bombs.  

 

[HarryDoyle]

Absolutely everything going right.

[RobertCrawley]

Sit down, Manny.

[YelichPosse]

I can’t believe we got Contreras AND Payamps for Ruiz. Contreras , I’m legit excited about not just the bat (power will come) but how he seems to want to and already has been improving behind the plate.
