Pathetic.

What do these hitting coaches teach these guys, look at strikes and swing at balls?

When did the Brewers get a hitting coach?  I thought we hit without rules or constraints. 

[Underachiever]

13 batters started 0-2 last night. Then the first two today

At the game today hoping for a Salvage Sunday. 
After that first inning it’s more likely that we’ll be home by 3 watching the end of a no hitter on TV.

You should stay. Perfect games are rare 

Edit: Ah nvm

I know the Brewers are desperate for runs but good lord I HATE bunting in the second inning.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Whew. Finally.

[HarryDoyle]

That run just saved the jobs of our 7000 hitting coaches.

[treego14]

Sal is clutch!

The others?  Not much.

Finally getting a run whilst illustrating exactly why it has been so difficult to get any runs: single, single, sacrifice, single, then a pair of weak outs by the minor leaguers at the bottom of the order.

[Joseph Zarr]

Tuned in just in time to see Durbin and Ortiz come up clutch. Zesty AB's there! Lotta fire in those young pups!

The complete lack of... well, everything... from Durbin and Ortiz is such a rally killer. Something needs to be done. I don't know what that something is, but SOMETHING needs to happen.

Some people here need a bit of a reality check.  I get its been a real bad month but its not 2003 anymore.  The Brewers have won the division 3 of the last 4 years and have had a winning record the last 7 full years in a row not counting the covid 60 game season.  I think we can give them the benefit of the doubt that they will snap out of this.

[Brock Beauchamp]

HEY LOOK EVERYBODY

RUNS!

[HarryDoyle]

It's an offensive explosion!!!!

[Brock Beauchamp]

[Brian]

[Brock Beauchamp]

Nice to see runs but it'd be cool if the Brewers realized that if you hit the ball really hard, you can go for two or more bases.

[HarryDoyle]

Damn offense let Freddy sit too long in the dugout.

[duewizard]

9 whiffs for Freddy already

[wntrtxn21]

Is that Churio's 9th whiff in his last 12 ABs? 

[Frisbee Slider]

Glad we didn’t allow a grand slam there. That would really have reduced our championship probability.

Different team, different players, different coach and mostly different GM.

I guess we feel with the talent on the roster they should be playing much better than they have been during this dreadful stretch.

No, since 2018-2024. Including last year’s fluke season. The only thing the same is the uniforms for the most part. Maybe you can give them the benefit of the doubt, but it would be a miracle for them to compete for the division’s title this season with the players they have.
