Yeahhh, I'm tapping out early on this one. I don't see us scoring 5 runs, much less holding the Tigers to 4.

I'm hoping Todd gives a good showing after that tough first inning. We're going to need him in the coming weeks.

And now our Landmark Credit Union defense let us down.

Somehow I missed the “Todd” connection with Alexander … but it is a bit annoying 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Ortiz with a killer error. Just awful. 

This one did not feel good to me coming in. Still hope, I guess. But it's going to have to be stolen because down by 4 against Skubal is an ugly way to start.

You never know what will happen. I'll watch.

I'll have it on the background while I do other stuff. If their lead isn't to large by the 8th maybe Chourio and Turang can get a little rally going. Contreras has been hot too. Its clear we'll be lucky to score 1 on Skubal

[yourout]

 this might be a good day for a Payamps to get an inning. 

Probably Bauers as well.

 

[yourout]

  Just don't get no hit. 

 

[Underachiever]

Come on guys, don’t tell us Yelich is playing well. Listening to Sophia and Jeff talk about him barreling the ball and being unlucky…just stop

Skubal's got a perfecto going. And a Maddux no less.

Dang Alexander bad throw you're not helping yourself

[HarryDoyle]

What a farce.

[wallus]

Get Bauers up

[NewerBrewer]

They seem to be playing pretty sloppy lately. I was starting to feel more confident after the KC, Cincy, and Colorado series. These past few days have been tough to watch.

Just because we're facing a tough pitcher doesn't mean our defense should fall apart.

[wiguy94]

Brewers defense has fallen off very hard so far this year.

Agreed. If anything, it means we need it more than ever. 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Well, that probably does it. Alexander should wear this one, I think.

It's a tough run of pitching matchups this week, but you can't blow 4-0 leads with three outs to get, and you can't commit all kinds of errors. Hopefully we continue to hit Flaherty well (feels like we have in the past).

[yourout]

I feel bad for anybody that paid to go to this thing and wasn't a Detroit fan.

A new season of Black Mirror just dropped though…

Brutal. Todd is grooving pitches now.

That was such a bad loss.

[HarryDoyle]

Will this be another 20 run game for the opposing team?

His pitch count gives him a chance at it unless the brewers somehow start having decent at bats

What I am now turning to, haha. 

Not too concerned, but I really hope this team comes out with renewed focus over the next few days. We've got a decent roster, but it only gets to playoff caliber by doing a lot of little things right.
