Brewers (Burnes) vs Cubs (Steele): 8/29/23, 7:05pm

[Bulldogboy]

Looks like a pitch around. 

[yourout]

Pretty big AB here.

 

[Baldkin]

Phew

[Brock Beauchamp]

Well, that's one way to get out of an inning. No luck involved there, no siree.

[yourout]

Got away with a terrible 0-2 pitch.

That could have been ballgame if that gets in the corner.

[bensheeps]

Run prevention unit - check

Now need some "offensing" (to quote Mark Canha)

Yeah, that was potentially a game-changing play.

Genius CC positioning and Monasterio grit, lol.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Ross is going to let Steele throw 115 pitches I bet.

[jason21nl]

Could see this type of game coming from a mile away.  Let a good pitcher off the hook and they’ll eventually find it.  

[treego14]

Nice rip, Monasterio!

[yourout]

Even though I dont want Weimer leading off I still might start Monty.

[Brewcrew82]

Send him to AAA until he becomes a major league hitter.

[treego14]

Wild Wiemer!

[Underachiever]

Awful lot of 0-2 counts to come back from for this team tonight. Steele is 14-3 for a reason.

Which won’t happen if he doesn’t completely change his swing 

[Bulldogboy]

Come on now. If anyone believes that Wiemer is a better option tonight than Frelick please raise your hand.

[treego14]

Turang has a Golden Glove!

[jason21nl]

Lmao!  Turang is just silly 

[yourout]

Will be interesting to see if Steele starts the top of the 7th.

His mechanics are whack

I don’t recall any Brewers batter with so much unnecessary movement

What former Milwaukee players had abnormal movement while batting?

Talk about a major renovation.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Joey just missed one.

Now the real game starts. See if Burnes can get through 7+ while the Cubs have to grind for every out. 

Ross letting Steele go even after the Monasterio hit shows you how desperate the Cubs are. Be real sweet to steal this one, though it's mich less high stakes for the Crew after last night.

Ben Oglivie, Craig Counsell, and Ben Sheets.
