That was hard to watch until the last pitch. 

I simply stopped watching ...

I'm about to take a 45-minute walk to expend the pent up energy & stress

I hope Burnes captures a win tomorrow 🙌

Devin's change up was good. Padres just werent chasing. 

Just needs to locate his fastball an inch better.

What a pitching game on both sides. So this game would still be playing if it weren't for the pitch clock violation.

It's awesome that a bunt and SB with the balk and sac fly wins in todays game.  When runs are going to be tough to come by. Speed overcame power and analytics.

I was watching the Bucks with Brewers on gameday... after Devon put 2 on, I thought about turning on the live-stream, but figured it would be less stressful not watching it. 😂

Woohoo!!!

Looks like a great game, gonna catch the archive in the morning.

I was distracted after hearing that Darvish struck out the side in the 1st.  But later I saw it was 1-0, still early on.  I thought, "Well that'll NEVER be the final score." Am I dreaming?!?!!? If so, do not wake me. 

[Nola Beery]

Tough for Darvish. 12 Ks, 1 run, and a loss? 

But Miley (who?) 8Ks zero walks.

Baseball!!  

Love it today.

He is pressing and needs to be sent down to AAA.  

I think the quality of Wiemers' ABs has been much, much better than the results he's been realizing.

I absolutely love Mitchell single-handedly creating the winning run with his legs. If he ever gets ahold of the contact issues, the sky's the limit as to how he can impact games. I don't care if it's Machado, Arenado or Brooks Robinson at 3B. In the correct situation the bunt should always be in the back of his mind.

He's had a few deep flyouts last few days, has reigned in the whiffs. He's getting closer, but I think only time at MLB level can bring his bat up. 

I did a comp on his vs Judge actually, a lot of similarities in their numbers coming through the minors (save for stolen bases) and Judge in his first month as a September call-up hit .179/.263/.345 for a .608 OPS. Came back next season mashing. Wiemer can do damage, he's just slightly off at the moment, but I've not seen anything to do with him struggling to hit breakers in the minors, so I'm assuming he'll get there.. that and the defense has been freakishly good

When his playing career is over, the Brewers should sign Wade Miley up as a minor league pitching coach, while the Padres aren’t hot at the moment, it’s still something to see Miley go through an All Star laden lineup and befuddle  them with timing, location while throwing in the 80s.

Great road W against a good team, and great starter.

I was so fired up about him doing that.  I used to irrationally love fast guys that could create on the base paths. That's why I got so excited about players like Tony Gwynn Jr and Carlos Gomez back in the day.  Keep bringing the speed along with good defense!  Love this young group.
