What year is this? That looked like 2023 Hoby!

Bringing in a starter in the 7th inning with runners on base.  I don't like this.  

Also, it's September and there is a bullpen's worth of MLB-calibur relievers in AAA.

Who would you send down? This isn’t September rosters in the past where you could have 40 people on the roster 

[RobertCrawley]

Rea was a great signing.

[adambr2]

This is a team that really could have benefited this year from the old September roster expansion rules. We'd probably be using a 34, 35 man roster right now, there'd be no running out of arms. 

[Brewcrew82]

I don't like the Rea Schwarber matchup at all.

[kevinisaname]

That sucks. Wasn't even close to a strike and still got an RBI.

[BCF]

How did KS hit this? 

[Bulldogboy]

Good hitting by Swarber

Indeed.

[RobertCrawley]

That will do.

[BCF]

Nice inning by Rea

[HarveysWBs]

That is just a dang good at bat by Schwarber, a seasoned veteran of fall baseball right there. Nothing but respect for that.

[markedman5]

Good job by Rae……. Nothing you can do about that Schwarber hit……tip,your cap

Somewhat less respect from me because he was a cub.

94 in the other batter box and he gets it through the hole with the runners moving.

[RobertCrawley]

Perk.

Indeed. My point being, as much as I love our baby Brewers, and this offense is absolutely rejuvenated this year, I think we’re going to need a little more of the Schwarber approach sprinkled in if we’re going to get where we want to go.

[Pugger]

We need more runs.  😁

By swinging at pitches way outside the strike zone?  I will have to remember to quote this when everyone is whining about Adames swinging at a pitch out of the zone.

[yourout]

Chance to stretch out the lead again.

Two strike approach

Swarber shortened his stroke and made sure he hiy the ball. Adames likes to try to homer on those outside pitches.

[RobertCrawley]

That was a good pitch to hit.

Another one.

[Pugger]

Did Willie jam his finger?

[yourout]

That was not a good at bat other than the fact that he saw a lot of pitches
