Why not McGee here? Ugh

Ashby was warming in the 6th after Peralta allowed two runners. Might as well use Ashby for 1-2 innings. Can still use Easton, too.

Brewers with a day off Thursday……I’m ok with using Ashby here.

Dodgers can score bunches in a hurry.

Wait a minute. Do my eyes deceive me? I come home from a softball game to find out Vaughn hit a three run home run in his first major league at bat? 

First Brewers at bat

Ah, I see. Still impressive.

Save some for tomorrow, boys! Yeli homer!

[markedman5]

Opposite field power has been there all year for Yeli

[Underachiever]

Don’t the Dodgers have a long relief guy? This has been strange

[folly412]

The discussion leading up to that really set the table nicely.

Yeli!! When does Kike Hernández come in? 

Score more so we can have Cy Siegler MLB debut!

[HarryDoyle]

POUR IT ON!!!

[Bulldogboy]

Can someone explain Bauers for Vaughn there? It's 9-0.

Defense? Get Bauers some time to keep him fresh?

[RobertCrawley]

Ok, we can stop with all the praise of Clayton Kershaw.

[edfunderburk]

I wonder how long Murphy will require Ortiz to wear his dunce cap & keep his nose in the corner

Yeah, Bauers needs ABs. It's 9-0. Let Vaughn take the night to reflect on a great start.

Ashby has the best pure stuff of anyone on the pitching staff … including Miz

Our announcers gush over opposing players too much for my taste. I got sensitive to it when they wouldn’t shut up about Molina in his last year.

I puked on my shoes.

[edfunderburk]

Why burn another arm with a 9-0 lead?

Wouldn’t it make sense to let Ashby finish this game?

We may need the other arms fresh for the next two games

I wouldn't go that far but it's definitely a pretty close second. It's clear he's better in the pen which is where I thought Miz would be too.

[wallus]

Ashby has the nastiest hook since Ben Sheets

He'll make a fine starter next year.

Maybe I should have said Ashby has great stuff & has learned to control it more than previous years when he often had too many walks

[RobertCrawley]

Who's the player of the game. Freddy?
