get some runs, fellas

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Snell is a dog. Doesn't look taxed, worried, or like he's pitching anything more important than a spring training game. 

[CheezWizHed]

This game feels like recent Packer games where one team dominates, but the score is close... now we just need to hope the Brewers end like Cleveland and not Cincinnati 

[adambr2]

If I knew we would give up 1 run through 8 I would have felt awfully good about our chances tonight.

There we go, Trevor. Come on, offense!

Yup... pitching has done everything you could ask for. Turang needs to beat one out and get Vaughn up with a man on!

Now they are making Megill throw too damn many pitches...  More than likely, we'll need him tomorrow night, but if he throws too many pitches, that isn't gonna happen.

Emonds fold off some pretty decent pitches

I know its not how the game is played anymore...but when you have elite offspeed and you are throwing it for strikes, the change in velocity plus movement can make today's hitters look completely overmatched.

Snell can reach back and give a guy 96 with movement, too - Brewers hitters havent proven they can adjust to all the offspeed so he simply isnt giving them the fastballs they still are hoping to see.

His change looks like it has a little air bender/screwball action to it. It's not enough just to lay back on it. It's an elite pitch.

It’s 1-0.   All it takes is one hit.     

And that approach is the reason why they arent coming anywhere close to it.  Trying to hit a HR off Snell tonight just plays into that offspeed.  You almost have to accidentally hit one or hope he gives you a mistake 

[adambr2]

Snell gets 2 lefties in his first 3 in the 8th. Oof.

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

We’re still somehow only down 1-0…

our pitching has been great tonight.  As many have said, a bloop and a blast is all week need.

I like him better as a non-Cardinal, but not by much.

Snell vs Phillies this year 

13 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 21 K 

Phillies were second best team in NL 

[markedman5]

If Blake Snell was pitching against his own team tonight I think the result would be similar to what he is doing against the Brewers.

When a great pitcher executes his pitches like this it almost doesn’t matter

I meant just get on base.   We aren’t trying to do that.  Just get a baserunner

[kevinisaname]

Ugh, Turang swung at ball 3.

[adambr2]

Finally get ahead in the count and Turang grounds out on Ball 3.

[RobertCrawley]

Snell is at 94 pitches. Maybe he gets tired and gives one up?

Brutal lineup once again 

[adambr2]

So much for getting to their pen. Snell may finish this game. 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Vaughn just shook his head on that 1st pitch...was sitting on a change and got a fastball instead

[willie key]

I would rather not show uribe tonight.

Just want to see one more Chourio AB at the moment. 

Give him a chance to do something...

[BarremlensTSSC]

Aside from that huge HR in game 5 Turang has been scuffling.  That's a big "except" but....

That was a strike, just not a good one to hit

[jw5511986]

Everything straight at their players man
