Not great. Another poor umpire with a tight zone isn’t helping.

Yeah he needs a liberal zone. 

He's not going to be able to gas guys when he faces a small zone.

Got a call there. That inside corner had been out of order until that pitch.

[HarryDoyle]

Has Alonzo always looked that dorky?

[folly412]

Two innings, one run, two soaked through jerseys.  

[BCF]

Good job keeping it at 1

[adambr2]

Tobias caught a huge break on that call. That could have easily been 2-0 with the bases still loaded and no end in sight.

God, they're talking about how terrible the Mets have been constantly. Stop trying to jinx them, lol.

Honest question … Am I the only one in this forum who doesn’t believe in jinxes? This topic comes up fairly often. Just wondering out loud.

Survived so far.     And brewers are down early again.  We should just skip the first two innings every game and make the score 1-0 then start playing.   Then we don’t have to watch Contreras and yelich in the first

I don't really, but they were talking about it so much that it almost seemed fated.

I wasn’t a fan of the deadline trade in 2024 that brought Montas to Milwaukee. I don’t think he’s been a good pitcher for at least three years. 

[kevinisaname]

Montas gets the call there. That one was bad.

[Bulldogboy]

I miss Chourio. Jolt of energy possible every time up

[HarryDoyle]

We got the large market K zone again tonight.

[adambr2]

I guess the umpire felt like he needed to make the one on Lindor up on Yelich. That was freaking terrible.

Ryan Additon And the Brewers have history before

Yelich & Contreras should be hitting much lower in the batting order until one or both start heating up again. They are not helping us early in games.

I feel umpires have been pretty awful lately.

Lately? Try about seven years.

To be fair, Tobias has probably gotten the most impactful call so far tonight. 

They just need to get the robot or challenge system implemented already so we can stop witnessing this garbage night after night. Even the staunchest traditionalist knows that it is inevitable.

[edfunderburk]

We could use a big fly here

That strike three to Lindor was a helluva lot closer to being a strike than the one to Yelich.

[kevinisaname]

Bases loaded for Joey. I feel like I've seen this a couple of times before...

[kevinisaname]

OHH A BIG BREAK!

[jason21nl]

Wow!
