I watched that play again....he looked safe to me.

Did Murphy and the dugout even question it?

[RobertCrawley]

Miz is dealing.

An expected result but … having a lead and needing is D… it’s hard to PH him there. 

Not at all

You just cannot in a game of this magnitude decide not to score. Murphy decided he didn't want to score there in hopes of preventing the Cubs from getting on base by hitting a ball to short evidently. Incredible 

Wasting Bauers here when he could be needed later in the game is interesting 

[BrewerFan]

Biggest IP for any Brewers pitcher all year. 

Miz has to come back and NOT let the Cubs answer... and keep attacking.

Nice pick by Vaughn on the bad throw from Joey.

It was close!

Love how Ortiz throws it in the dirt right after we're told he had to take that at bat with the bases loaded because of his defense.

Why are you coming on a Brewers message board and trashing our players? 

But you say nothing to jason21nl for saying .....

"Joey Ortiz sucks.  I don’t give two ***** about his defense.  He freakin sucks. "

That's OK huh, 

[TURBO]

Darling is actually giving props to a Brewer player again?  Twice in the same game?

[BrewerFan]

Vaughn has been... really solid defensively.

Not terrible offensively either since the trade. 

[BruisedCrew]

I have made it clear that I have never favored playing Monasterio over Ortiz, mainly because I don’t think Monasterio is as good a hitter as his OPS in limited ABs might suggest. 
 

But in that case I was begging to give Bauers a shot at a potential game breaking hit when Counsell couldn’t have countered with a lefty. We’ll never know what Bauers would have done but I wanted him to have a chance. There probably won’t be a better opportunity in this game.

We say nothing to him because he's a Brewer fan and has earned it, you however...

[kevinisaname]

YES, MIZ! Hell of an outing!

[yourout]

Strike zone seems to be a little smaller when we're pitching to it

[Slippery_Pete]

Wow!

Miz grew up tonight

IDK, I see the argument, but... that defense is pretty big.

Would have been REAL bad if Vaughn hadn't picked that first GB after the AB. 

[Bulldogboy]

Miz has done everything you could have asked 

[RobertCrawley]

I wonder how often Miz shakes off Wild Bill to get to the fastball. Batter will know these things.

[BCF]

People wanted Miz out after the first batter and look what happened…

[CheezWizHed]

Please sir.  May we have another?  Great job by the young kid.  Star in the making right before our eyes.

Was just thinking the same exact thing.

He grew up this series!

100 percent.

Bravo Mr Misiorowski. Fantastic job

[82brewcrew82]

Miz probably the pitching MVP for the Brewers this series.
