I wish Contreras and Yelich were a little more patient that inning...

[kevinisaname]

The homer bug is getting to Woody again.

 

Edit: Should say if he gives up hits, they tend to be homers.

91 down the middle isn't gonna cut it

[da swedish german]

let them have their dinosaur baseball solo shots.  

we'll show them how the modern game is played

Not this crap with the ump again...

[edfunderburk]

Yuck … not sure how much more of this one I will watch 🤮

I love Woody, but I hate giving up homers to rich team’s players

He’s been remarkably good post-surgery

I hope this isn’t a game that balances the scale of expectations moving forward 

[kevinisaname]

Velocity is getting there, though he just threw a middle-middle pitch on 0-2. Glad he was able to get the K.

Let’s just hope this doesn’t mean an il stint.     We need to get through the cubs series

Can you elaborate please?

Low 90’s center of the plate doesn’t work in any level of baseball - college, low minors, AA, AAA

[BruisedCrew]

Several national media articles about the Brewers the last couple of days, including the Washington Post and Athletic.

Hope that doesn’t prove to be the modern version of the SI jinx. Feature a team or player when they’re hot and they come crashing to earth. 
 

BTW, I consider any game that BA does instead of “Sweeeeng and a miss” Levering to be a blessing. 

[edfunderburk]

Too bad we can’t play more games on the road 😏

[kevinisaname]

Anyone know if Senga is on a pitch count?

I'm not going to put any effort in to prove this, but I read most game days and you post in most. it feels like you're the first to give up in every one that doesn't go swimmingly from the get go

[kevinisaname]

This ump has been bad both ways, but starting to lean in the Mets direction.

[BruisedCrew]

Sounds like a Cubs crowd cheering their heroes’ HRs.

Okay … I didn’t think you could support your statement

[markedman5]

Easy big fella…..it’s the second inning 

[adambr2]

Call the low pitch the same both ways… stupid ump.

[kevinisaname]

Really could use a shut-down inning from Woody.

[brooks_quichenick]

Strike zone has been massive at times already. Perkins strike three call was a joke
