The strike zone tonight is in no small part responsible for the score

[adambr2]

Yeah, the Vaughn magic is gone.

[Fear The Chorizo]

That was a hanger.

 

[adambr2]

The streak was fun, but tonight is a good reminder that this offense needs help to win in October.

[homer]

That ump was really bad. Got worse as the game went along.

[treego14]

Fire that ump!

Worst I have seen since Angel Hernandez and/or CB Buckner!

[adambr2]

The ump sucked, but this team needs a big hitter.

[willie key]

1-0.   To end the streak.    Jeez

 

That sucks

We would still be streaking if the home plate umpire wasn't high on something!

[adambr2]

George Webb burgers are only good when it’s 2 am and you’re at least a 6 pack in, anyway.

[Bulldogboy]

The Raleigh mistake was on Murphy. Outside of that ump was brutal. Good reminder for Arnold that your work is not done.

That ump scorecard is to be interesting to look at

[brewcrewdue80]

5 pitch walk turned in to a 6 pitch out. Bases should have been loaded 1 out.  I think final tall was 12 in favor for Seattle and 4 in favor for Milwaukee. 

[HarveysWBs]

I can accept this result if it serves as a less than subtle nudge that the offense needs an infusion or two. Surely there’s a way to do that without completely mortgaging the farm.

Nope. Getting several days of publicity as they roll out the free burger promotion is worth a lot more than what they would have given away. 

[brewmann04]

Perfect example why the brewers brass needs to get legit hitters at the deadline.

A big hitter has no chance with that ump!

[adambr2]

Guys, this lineup as currently constructed isn’t good enough to win a World Series.

Our best hitter is … well I don’t even know, because we don’t even really have one. 

I guess what I’m saying is, if we need to take one or two 1-0 games on the chin in the last week before the deadline for Arnold to go out and find a bat or two, it’s worth it.

[Bulldogboy]

People saying stick with Ortiz but he got pinch hit for Tyler Black tonight so....

That's MLB's and Players Union's fault more than anybody's!

[rickh150]

11 wins….if I’m George Webb, I STILL announce a promotion tomorrow.  Announce a Buy 1 Get 1 thru the Cubs series….11 wins= 1+1 burgers. For Brewers faithful.  
Why let the momentum die tomorrow?  

[rickh150]

And a 3B/SS for sure….Ortiz and Durbin can still play but a left handed bat there helps us with balance/depth.

I wonder if the Orioles have to be thinking about a radical youth movement to restock their system.  Gunnar for several pieces but Made?

I know people want to think Ortiz is the modern day Ozzie Smith, 

But he’s the most upgradable spot in the lineup. By far.

Stick to your guns, George!

But if that home plate ump comes into the restaurant, spit on his burger in the kitchen!

I think William Contreras is quite up-gradable ... he needs to sit until that hand heals!
