Pirates (Priester) vs Brewers (Rea): 8/4/23, 7:10pm

[Bulldogboy]

This team is poorly coached fundamentally. No other way to really slice it. 

[HarryDoyle]

Complain about the ump all you want, but that was a pathetic display of offense to not score one damn run with the bases loaded and no outs.

[adambr2]

Absolutely disastrous ABs by Yelich and Wiemer.

[yourout]

Going to be one of those nights.

Yelich should have walked. But no reason Wiemer why Wiemer should have been swinging until he got to two strikes. That pitch wasn't even close.

Meh. Yelich should've walked. Wiemer's at-bat was terrible. 

[Bulldogboy]

There has to be accountability for poor approaches at the plate. How else to you see progress?

Could've gone our way, but just too close to take with the bases loaded given the situation and count.

Umpire scorecard might be the worst of the year tonight

Looks like a strike to me.

[HarveysWBs]

I mean. That third strike to Yelich is only controversial because the tv strike zone is comedically inaccurate at times. Yelich is a tall dude. That was practically belt-level. Gotta swing there.

If he swings at that pitch he probably does nothing with it and at best hope he hits it foul.  That pitch was a ball.  

[Brewcrew82]

There's 1 we should've had last inning. 

[82brewcrew82]

Thats one.

[mtsportsfan]

The Weimer  ab was the killer ! To aggressive when the pitcher can't throw strikes ! One ab too late l way to go Santana ! Not over yet !

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Good to get one back. Could’ve used that with runners on base last inning. 

[Nola Beery]

That's ok!

[HarveysWBs]

Loving me some Santana. Nice add.

That's funny, because he's been getting so much hate. 

Like, can we at least give him a week? 

[Brewcrew82]

Thing that hurts though is that Pirates have some decent pitchers in their bullpen, especially Bednar. Last inning was our real chance to pour some runs on.

[Brewcrew82]

Someone needs an off-day or two or three.

[Nola Beery]

That's Willie.

[jason21nl]

Adames is laughable.  Keep trying to hit the ball out of the yard.  

[mtsportsfan]

Imagine that Adames striking out ! At least it didn't kill a rally !

And when he comes back from that off day no higher than 6th in the order.
