All that for nothing. Disappointing.

All that for 50 pitches in 2 innings, getting to that BP early again

45 pitches through 2 for Boyd. He could easily be out by 4-5 innings and get to the cubs pen 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Let Boyd off the hook with no runs in missing that scoring opportunity in the 2nd.

Nothing for now.

Boyd with 46 pitches already in 2 innings. We will get to him for sure. 

I think we'll get to him, too. The big question is whether or not Chad can hold them down and keep this at two.

[yfinn6]

At the risk of being labeled emotional, I did not particularly care for the outcome of that 2nd inning. 

[Nagod]

Like to see Crew get at least 3 wins here.

Schedule gets tough for a bit.

You can complain about things without making rash statements saying yelich and Contreras should be benched because of two bad games

He wasn’t throwing the ball well in Nashville and is all over the place today. Not looking overly promising 

[kevinisaname]

Nice bounce-back inning from Patrick.

[owbc]

Love the quick inning to send Boyd right back out there. 

[kevinisaname]

Not a great inning by the top of the order. Didn't like Sal's AB in particular. He was swinging for the fences.

It's an in-game thread. It's 99% rash. Deal with it.

There’s nothing of that sort in this GT, though.

Saying a guy could use a day off isn’t the same as saying he should be benched.

This is true, and it’s a thing in the GTs of every other baseball team. And every other sports team. I get if someone says something truly ridiculous like “Frelick should be DFAed after that AB”, someone is going to call it out, but there’s been nothing of the sort.

Brewers need to find a way to get one more win in this series

[kevinisaname]

Well, Chad couldn't hold 'em to two.

[adambr2]

Yeesh, Patrick. Not a good day. Well, get em tonight.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

5-0 hole in in the bottom of the 3rd. With the doubleheader today, there will be some pitching staff management decisions for Murphy to make in the first of two.

[yfinn6]

He has no control or anything today. Just eat some innings. 

[kevinisaname]

Gotta try and get six out of him now and save the bullpen.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This one's turning out how I thought and feared yesterday was going to go, so I'm glad we already won a game. Just get 2 and I'm happy.

Win one more? I’d be surprised if we lost one more :)

[owbc]

Punt this game

Not a great position to be in, but it's the 3rd inning, and the last thing I'm going to do is write this team off. Especially this season.
