How was he safe there?  Clearly was out.

Now a hit Geeze.

Mears is making me miss Elvis. 😢 

[BruisedCrew]

This offense has been pretty crappy since the first 3 innings of the first game of the Reds series. 
 

It’s amazing that the Brewers have been able to win as many as they have in this stretch. 

[adambr2]

You knew as soon as they inexplicably stood with the safe call that there would be a couple hits that followed. 

[Brewcrew82]

Geez. That was called strike 3, too.

 

[BCF]

I’m about to rage at these umpires. That high strike was called all game for STL

[adambr2]

Thanks for that replay of the check swing from behind the pitcher's mound, Bally. That's a super useful angle to see on a check swing.

[Brock Beauchamp]

After long and hard consideration, I've decided I'm against walking in runs.

So ... which bullpen is going to crack first? Neither offense seems to want to win this game.

You have your answer. 

[adambr2]

What a stinker of a series this turned into in the last 8 innings. 

Win our division we will, but I'd be shocked if we aren't playing in the WC round. 

[willie key]

Mears is crap too

[Bulldogboy]

When is the last time Brewers picked up a good reliever at the deadline?

The bye was a pipe dream.    Just win the division now

[adambr2]

If you have Ryan Mears and Joe Ross on your roster, your bullpen logjam isn't really that bad. 

[BCF]

These calls make sense

I agree, I thought he would be good coming from being average in thin air Colorado but NOT!!!

[jason21nl]

Very disappointing series this is turning out to be

[treego14]

Mears is giving me tears.

[adambr2]

Today would sting a lot less if we hadn't blown it late yesterday. 

[adambr2]

If you have Nick Mears, Joe Ross, and Bryse Wilson in your bullpen, your roster logjam isn't really that bad. 

[Brewcrew82]

Bryse Wilson can go, too. There's zero reason to not bring up Yoho and Misiorowski for the stretch run. 

[treego14]

Better think twice before using Bryse!

He has not been nice!

Frustrating to consistently struggle this much against Mikolas. He hasn't been good in years, but we can't solve him.

Prior to this game, Mikolas had a 6.75 ERA and .966 OPS-A vs the Brewers this season.

[BruisedCrew]

It’s a good thing there aren’t any sub .500 teams in the playoffs. The Brewers seem to have a lot of trouble with them lately. 

[Bulldogboy]

I'm ready for Miz and bring back Elvis. He's good when nobody is on base.
