Nationals (Irvin) vs Brewers (Miley): 9/15/23, 7:10pm

[treego14]

The 2019 Nationals have arrived in Milwaukee!

[HarryDoyle]

Right on brand for this team.

[Sugarrayray]

I know he’s a vet but why has Hook not visited the mound yet!? Just to let him catch his breath.

[BruisedCrew]

Not looking like the start of a Brewers sweep. 

[markedman5]

Not an,ideal start……..could be a bullpen buster.

 

yikes

[Dragonbait]

I blame the new patch.

[Brewcrew82]

Funny. This team is ice cold, and all of a sudden they're ripping the ball on pitches way out of the strike zone. 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Glad the Brewers aren’t facing a lefty starter. 3-run deficit going into the Bottom 1st is a big hole. Seems to be a better chance to put up runs against a righty starter. But tough to be fully optimistic.

[BruisedCrew]

Yelich swings like he still has a sore back.

I agree and to be honest I’m not even that worried about a 3 run lead as much I’m concerned that Miley is going to give up a lot more loud contact. They were having batting practice against him. 

[Sugarrayray]

Yay a grounder :))

[yourout]

Hate seeing early multi run deficit.

Just never know which offense is going to show up. The one that scores 6 or 7 or the one that scores 0.

I know. They score zero when facing a last place team.

[Sugarrayray]

I know he’s not in any kind of rhythm but it’s just so frustrating to see Rowdy hardly foul off a pitch right down the middle and then go golfing for ball 4.

[TURBO]

Rowdy's done...Time to officially move on.

We have three players that are done this year.       3

 

can you really sustain that on a roster.     Thats more that 20% of your hitters as utterly useless.     

[Bulldogboy]

Anderson and Rowdy are holding spots that should be held by Black and Perkins 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Walk a guy, then pick him off. That’s a fair exchange.

They showed a stat the other night that in the last 2 months Brewers ops against lefties has been well over 800……so as bad as we were in the beginning of the season ……we have been better against lefties then righties for quite awhile now.

Will be interesting to see what the strike zone is this half inning after the missed clear strike 3.

[Sugarrayray]

I love that approach for Brice

Thanks for sharing that. Good improvement. Guess that it’s hard to shake off bad memory and “anecdata.”

Nice slap to left field for Turang!
