Yep. Game times for these telecasts are not set for the convenience of ticket buying fans wanting to attend in person. 
 

Being home watching on TV I don’t mind the early start. But I’ll bet the stands are going to be pretty empty.

What do we think about the availability of our late inning relievers tonight?

Devin has only pitched three times in a row once all season, and in said three-game stint, two of the three were single-digit pitches thrown.

Payamps has pitched two straight and 3/4.

Milner has pitched 3/4 but one of them was one pitch.

It won't matter, Rickie!

The offense is exploding tonight!

We win 11-2, likely!

[treego14]

I miss Lyle Overbay and Jeff Cirillo!

Great. Last time Fox carried the game was Frelick’s debut and they cut to the Twins game in the 3rd inning.

I want 16 runs tonight just like the Cubs last night!

I’d be satisfied with 16 runs this series

Adams hitting….841 OPS in wins…..481 OPS in losses

and .676 OPS overall.
 

And this is the guy batting 4th still. He can do no wrong. Do we expect a big change, is the question. I guess I expect him to bat 7th or so for us now, and I just hope he gets a little better.

And on a side note….Hardy was sent down  (and then traded)at .659 OPS in 2009. After, he hit 30 HRs in 2011 and won three consecutive Gold Gloves with Baltimore from 2012-2014.

Just don't understand why he hasn't been moved down the lineup , it boggles the mind ! Beginning to think he's not in a slump , he just flat out can't hit ! Any other lineup he's in the 7-8-9 hole .

been saying this for quite sometime.

He never truly knows what's going on with the Brewers, is probably just reading everything from notes passed on to him by the producer.

He now just feels like a guy who shows up every so often, nothing but a fill in...

 

 

I agree as well. I've wanted Anderson gone for quite awhile and with Rock doing fewer and fewer games I'd like him gone too. Problem is I don't like anybody else doing the games now either. But I'd love two new 162 game announcers or close to it.

I think the only time I hated the announcer was when Zora filled in on Bucks games , talk about amateur ! I like BA , Rock is starting to get a little annoying at times . I have listened to a few other teams ( not recently ) and thought how lucky we have been ! And if you don't like Lepay  and the badgers you can leave now ! Lol !

Perhaps if we have a 5-run in the 8th Adames will hit a grand slam. <sarcasm alert>

He’s 100% a Badger guy who IMHO has an annoying sing song approach to talking. And he could never seem to be able to go too long without bringing up something relating to the Badgers. 
 

If you’re a Badger fan (which I’m not) you probably like him on Brewers telecasts. If you aren’t you’d probably be inclined to turn the sound down or not. 

I'm not a Badger fan. I do recall when he called Hader's "immaculate inning." It was good stuff.

[Nola Beery]

Apparently we get Astros v, Yankees down in New Orleans.  Not even any team I could cheer for.

[yourout]

Lead off walk. Great way to start the night 

[yourout]

Do not need to serve up a crooked number before there's an out.

I see that big boob lady is in the stands today, tough to focus on the action!

Our .204 cleanup hitter.

Initial returns on Santana are not good.
