Brewers (Peralta) vs Pirates (TBD): 9/6/23, 11:35am

[brewers888]

Nothing is ever easy for this team.

[kevinisaname]

Big K for Megill. Get one more and keep it tied.

[HarveysWBs]

It’s the Pirates…quit playing with your food!  This is how you lose a division title.

[BruisedCrew]

Peralta didn’t do what was needed today. 

[kevinisaname]

Geez, what a bad inning, but Megill kept it tied and that's the most important thing. The offense really needs to put something together. Nothing since the first inning.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Need to get add-on runs in games. One inning of scoring, then going into a cocoon on offense doesn't frequently work, unless you put up 5+ runs in that inning. Otherwise, it's often a formula to lose winnable games.

[BruisedCrew]

Cubs already up 3-0 on the Giants. 
 

Looks like the Brewers will need to pull this one out just to lose one game off their lead in this series. 

[kevinisaname]

Blech. This offense is offensive. This has all the feelings of an extra innings walk-off.

Suziki is on fire.

This game doesn’t bode well for a Brewer win. There have been many games this season when the team scored in the 1st inning and have been shutout the rest of the game.

Yeah, Peralta just suddenly lost it in the 6th. His final line did not reflect the quality of his outing, to my eyes anyway.

It felt like he didn't really have it all game, but he battled. Not a ton of swing and misses and he was leaving a lot over the plate. Plus, he couldn't throw the changeup for a strike.

[kevinisaname]

OK, maybe it won't be a walk-off. They'll just score a couple here. What a disappointing game.

[Brewcrew82]

Elvis Peguero in back to back games....CC just never learns sometimes.

[dlk9s]

Ban the outfield shift!

[markedman5]

You just can’t lose 2 out of 3 to the  Pirates with Burnes, Woody and Peralta going against nobody’s and bullpen games.

Cubs just keep on hitting……..

It wasn’t awful but when an ace pitcher is staked to a 3 run lead against a supposedly weak team and can’t even pull off  a quality start, it is not good. 

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

Just can't help themselves against bad teams.

Since the Cubs are apparently never gonna lose again let's get this over with so they can't celebrate the division on our field.

[willie key]

looks like we are getting to the inevitable stage of the cubs overtaking us.     They are just better than us.    But we still have a pretty substantial lead in the wild card.     So we should be ok

 

but who knows with this team

[Brewcrew82]

What a horrible decision by CC to pitch Peguero in back to back games. And thank you Clayton Andrews for being so horrible that we had to use Peguero last night.

Their offense is to blame.  Their all or nothing BS has to stop.

Well, is it too much to ask the offense to score more than 3 runs against crap pitching?

Yup. And if Hoby was available, I have no idea why he wasn't used in the sixth.

[brewers888]

We just aren't a very good team. Probbaly good enough to sneak into the playoffs with the other teams being worse but not a threat to Atlanta or LA.
