Dunn has the role a lot of us envisioned (going into spring training) for Tyler Black.

Yeah, he's been looking good so far. I like that he seems to be really hitting the ball hard on a regular basis. 

[Oxy]

Strange IGT tonight...quiet.

[Oxy]

Frelick, Ortiz, Turang and Chourio to win it is fun. The future is now, unfortunately after a Uribe BS.

[wildcat83]

The groundout to Adames to tie the game was hit really hard and right at him, kind of surprised he didn’t take a shot at the runner at home.

[stoutdude04]

Frelick to redeem himself? He should have caught that Urias fly ball.

[RobertCrawley]

Does Frelick have any speed?

[owbc]

I didn’t know that Brice Turang’s dad played for the Mariners. 

[Oxy]

Wild Bill has to take that for the team...

 

worked out...Ws are nice.

[owbc]

Literal walk off. 

[young guns]

What a weird ninth inning.  But a w is a w!

[SomewhereInTime]

Holy ****, it's an absolute full Turnbow!

Haven't heard that name in a good long while.

[MoreTrife]

Haha that was anticlimactic. Ws a W though.

I believe the term is a full TurnbLow.

Sal seems to be the most disappointing player on the Brewers since Wiemer was sent down to Nashville. Time to start Perkins in CF more often. Thank goodness they didn’t trade any of their young OFers.

The answer is yes, btw.

Was nice to hear the joy in Dunn's voice on the postgame.

[Jim French Stepstool]

BA: "Munoz is dialed in, now".

Proceeds to miss with the next three pitches to end the game.😁

Dunn is clearly the difference maker tonite. If he doesn't drive in that run in the bottom of the 8th, we're down 5-4 in the 9th & I doubt we're anywhere near as patient at the plate.

Credit Turang. It's tough to go up there and be asked to bunt, then take pitches that close w/o offering.

I think once you set your infield in a situation like that, you're pretty much locked in to what you're going to do. IOW, Murphy had the middle INF back, so we're going to 1st. I hear what you're saying though, it was smoked. Would've been interesting.

I guess Contreras goes to 1B and Sanchez catches.

All the posts musing about who would play 1B behind Hoskins (if not Bauers) kinda answers the question of why Bauers is here. He's a backup at 1B who's strong defensively. He allows them to DH Hoskins if they choose to. And he'll sometimes PH, like tonite. He can't really play anywhere else, but with the makeup of the rest of the roster he doesn't need to. And they don't want Tyler Black up here playing only once or twice a week.

I wasn't happy when they acquired him, but I understand why he's on the team. And of all the 1B we've picked up from the Yankees over the years, he's probably better than Frank Tepedino.

I would have sent him in the 9th, so it's a good thing I'm not the manager.

Ha ha. He had his good moments!

[RobertCrawley]

Wouldn't it be something if pre-knee injury Yelich was back.

[brewmann04]

I thought SAl was shading to Left Center and had a long run.

There's a name I had to look up.  If you just pulled that one out of your memory, I am impressed, Sir.
