Finally getting out for Rhys.  Pile up, runs.

[HarryDoyle]

Rock: "You can't block (second base) off anymore."

Recent history has shown us you can.

[treego14]

That a 2-piece 

from Rhys!

Brewers up four

Let's get more!

[bensheeps]

Big add on runs from Rhys

I respect the hustle, but Joey that was not a good idea.

That was textbook how to not catch a homerun ball. 

Are you talking about a fan? Because that was out by plenty.

[Bulldogboy]

This offense with a dispointing Hoskins has been something. If he could get hot this month....

Yeah I was referring to the fan dropping it.

Seems like we've been saying that all season. In fact, we have been saying that all season.

[adambr2]

Jackson has really, really turned a corner in plate discipline the last month or so.

Happy Birthday, Willy!

He is getting Silly!

29th homer on his 29th birthday!

Hip-hip-hooray!

3-run bombs are his thing!

It makes us all sing!

As of the other day Willy has more 3 run bombs than 4 teams

[HarryDoyle]

Pallante wants no part of Chourio.

He had a 126 wRC+ over his first 156 PAs before getting injured.

From July 4th through August 10th he put up a 144 wRC+ over 104 PAs.

[homer]

did I miss it or did they mention the rule about blocking 2nd on that Ortiz slide?

[adambr2]

Sheesh, this guy is going to end up doubling his season HR total today.

Which is further proof that stats lie.

Just don't walk people in front of him.

[HarryDoyle]

Second half Peralta has been much better than first half Willy, but he seriously needs to cut down on the home run balls.

You can be in front of the bag if you have the ball. He had the ball and was waiting for Ortiz to come to him.

[yourout]

Just when you think you might get seven out of Freddy he starts to implode.

I wouldn't call it an implosion. He was ok. A lot of the staff is having a lot of outings like these, not their best stuff, just grinding to limit damage and get through 5 or 6. I wish we had called up another pitcher on September 1st, I don't think we really needed Brewer. I think these guys are starting to wear down and we need to start protecting the arms for October a little more. 

I think we'll have to take 5 from Freddy today and be happy with it.

I thought you were limited to a certain number of pitchers on the MLB roster.

[adambr2]

I have to give credit to Bauers. It can't be easy to somehow get to over 4 years of MLB experience/service time all the while being a less than replacement level player and still somehow getting more shots and more shots.

Oh maybe. The rules have changed so much over the last few years and you might be right, I honestly haven't been on top of that one.

Just looked it up and you're right, it's 14 and we're at 14. 

So not even room for Milner or Mears, much less bringing up Misiorowski like we had hoped.
