Brewers (Peralta) vs White Sox (Cease): 8/13/23, 1:10pm

When your offense isn't great, you have to get at least one run with runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs.

That's just brutal from Contreras. 3 very hittable pitches and he was totally overmatched. Him and Yelich both slumping at the same time is not ideal.

They both need a day off.

Is there a stat for ‘bad outs’ with runners on 2nd and 3rd and 0 or 1 outs? There’s no way any other team does that situation worse.

Counterpoint:  When your offense isn't great, you routinely fail to do things like score runs when you have 2nd and 3rd on and no outs.  Otherwise, one would have a better offense.

I wouldn't have hated a safety squeeze with Turang up

That was just terrible , needed to plate more than one run there. Amazing how often we can do that !

As often as we struggle at getting runs across in those situations  , why isn't CC doing something different ? I might be wrong , but it seemed he managed more when we didn't have the DH ! 

[BruisedCrew]

I made this comment on Friday. It’s amazing that for as few runs as the Brewers score, how often I end up being frustrated after a scoring inning because they didn’t get more. 
 

That top of the fifth was the latest example. 

[Brewcrew82]

Okay. That inning was filthy from Cease.

They always seem to get the minimum

When was the last time Turang tried to bunt and actually got it down in a helpful position. 

[Brewcrew82]

Someone forgot to tell CC that Chafin has reverse splits. 

[82brewcrew82]

And Pittsburg up late on a three run jack.

[Brewcrew82]

Just terrific from Freddy. Stuff nowhere near as crisp or consistent as Monday, yet he pitches 6 shutout.

Last night wasn’t like that. They didn’t have many chances and got 3 out of their best opportunity. 

[mtsportsfan]

Freddie could be considered elite if he consistently could go seven innings , always has such a high pitch count !

The reds have really blown some late leads in these past few weeks

[Brewcrew82]

I thought we didn't get anybody at the deadline...Canha="Can't hit", right?

[mtsportsfan]

Cease kinda looks like the lead singer for queen !

Is there any starting pitcher that is going seven innings on the regular?  I just don't think that is an applicable standard anymore.

[RobertCrawley]

Overpowered.

[82brewcrew82]

Nice Abner.
