Bottom looked pretty athletic on that play, don’t you think?

Votto - yes - pretty athletic for a 40-year old player

Bottom line IF we lose is that Rea didn’t come through today. A tough offense for sure, but we needed better with as many runs as we have on the board. He’s pretty much what he is. His rotation spot should be in question imo.

Checked to see how Urias is doing in Nashville.

Not great.. .213

Hopefully they get his mechanics straightened out.

[Brewcrew82]

Lineup doing a good job of making the Reds cycle through some relievers.

The offense shares some blame.  They've had legit chances to score more.

This has been an issue all season

[82brewcrew82]

No he did not.

What a ridiculous strike call by the 3rd base Ump.

As weird as this may sound, I kinda prefer it when a guy gets demoted and struggles for a bit in AAA. I think it sends the message that something needs to change, allowing them more substantive progress toward being a better hitter.

If a guy is struggling at AAA, it's pretty obvious they're doing something less-than-optimally and should listen to coaches.

[Sixtolezcano]

Professional baseball is still back in the 19th century. Both umpiring and with their financial process(no level field between all teams).

[BruisedCrew]

I have a feeling that was the Brewers last best chance. 

From our seats we could tell strike 1 to Yelich was a terrible call. Might or might not have made a difference in the result of the AB but still sucked. 

[82brewcrew82]

And her we go.

[82brewcrew82]

Nice!  Maybe he should play first <bue>

[Pugger]

Nice double play there.

[AKCheesehead]

That showed some good core strength and balance by Turang 

[82brewcrew82]

 not wise 0/2 pitches.

[Pugger]

Damn.

[jason21nl]

Waste a damn pitch once in awhile

And you can adds poor execution by Peguero to the list.

[edfunderburk]

This game feels far too similar to the recent heartbreak loss games against Pittsburgh & Chicago (twice)

Too many opportunities to score with no runs produced 

I hope that doesn’t cost us a winnable game today

[DuWayne Steurer]

Well there's something that should literally never happen.

[jason21nl]

What an absolve joke

[Sixtolezcano]

Wake thef@#$&* up.
