Anyone who watched the Cubs game today saw Crow Armstrong go berserk more than once. 

He hadn’t had a hit in the series and when he struck out early in the game he slammed his bat a few times then they showed him slamming his glove in the dugout.

Then later he was on third when he thought the pitcher balked. Counsell and Berry were yelling at the umps  so they got together to discuss it. When they ruled no balk Crow went bonkers. Berry had to restrain him from charging the ump. It did look like the pitcher (Rodriguez) had stepped back off the rubber and then sped up his delivery home as the Crow danced down the line. But with his reaction he probably should have been kicked out.

 

Some might call that "passion."

Some might say he's a nut.

To be fair that was a balk

Like I said it did look the pitcher was off the rubber so it probably should have been a balk. But he really popped a vein.

I probably wouldn’t have thought as much about it if it hadn’t been for the extended tantrum after he struck out. 

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Solid win for the Brewers. 

I honestly don’t think you can overstate the performance of gasser tonight

Agreed, tidy win.  Nice to be back in the win column and seven up on the baby bears in the loss column.

but it's not like every guy suddenly forgot every piece of advice he gave

Bryse not Chafining/Woodfording and forcing someone else to get up is helpful.

Nice outing for Bobby.  Hope he didn't earn himself a couple weeks' vacation in Nashville for the effort.

Tomorrow’s game might be in serious danger of being washed out

There is a flood watch for that area from noon until 11 PM. 

Hope the Brewers don’t have to waste Misiorowski s start. 

Brewers might have to make a quick side trip to NYC in between the Orioles and Phillies series in late September.

Good win.  I was stunned to learn the Cubs lost last night.  Another walk-off by the home team.   6 1/2 game lead is way better than 4 1/2 or 5 1/2.

That’s fair but that isn’t Hamilton fault. He’s been hitting a lot better lately, his defense is solid and his speed can change the game when he gets on 

That's a pretty loose interpretation of Hamilton's defense.

Wish he was a Brewer...  Some of that youthful enthusiasm will dim the longer he plays.

Unfortunately, some kid with a .066 average just won the game for the Braves.

With all of the tantrums he has that include throwing things that’s more immaturity than youthful enthusiasm. ,Not  a good example for kids.
