Pirates cursed man. Chandler looks terrible but being a Pirate does that. Skenes only exception. 

Yeah, so much for any fears about facing a hot Pittsburgh team in their park.

3 runs and counting for that challenge...

I thought he was out in real time…….great hustle by Joey

[edfunderburk]

The big lead is to Misiorowski’s advantage. No pressure here. If he can’t get outs today & cover six innings, he shouldn’t get another start this season.

The memories of the sweep suits will haunt our nightmares for a long time...

I’d rather see Miz give up multiple homers than walks with a 9-1 lead 

[Bulldogboy]

Reynolds is annoying. Dude has to have lost more games than any Pirates 

[RobertCrawley]

57 pitches. That's probably the end of Les Miz's day.

I'm going to guess one more. 

[RobertCrawley]

Wild Bill busting down the line!

[yfinn6]

Question of the day: does Siegler get an inning today? ;)

If so … what an absolute waste of a starter position

With Les Miz, it's about the long term, not just one game.

[Bulldogboy]

Vaughn back

Vaughn Mowing is fun to watch!

I understand … but he can throw his three innings in Nashville … our bullpen needs our starters to cover six innings if possible … especially when we have a 9-1 lead

[RobertCrawley]

Fastball to Cutch. That's how it's done.

[jason21nl]

Ok.  I was wrong.  He’s rolling now

[folly412]

One ball to the last hitter away from an immaculate inning?  Darn.

[RobertCrawley]

Les Miz brought the goods that inning!

You called it Miz is dealing now. 

[markedman5]

Miz is sooo much better when he works ahead in the count

[yfinn6]

Let him go another. 

[markedman5]

Great inning there……attacked the zone early in the count…..they had no chance

Hopefully two more innings … then Rodriguez to finish the game

If they hold on to win this game the Brewers will improve to 8 W - 4 L in Misio’s 12 starts this year.

Getting bent out of shape about his IP total (when every out he records establishes a new career high) is seriously missing the forest for the trees.
