They have enough banked from all those shutouts. They'll be fine. -
This just seems wrong. Probably need a tweak of the rule somehow to prevent it Why? When you are forced over to a base because of a walk, you get that base for free. It's not a dead ball, so what you do once you get to the base is up to you. He got to second safely and then left the base. It wasn't on purpose, but he did it.

I think we can go to the bullpen scrubs now.

No wonder this pitcher never gets any time in the bigs. Talk about no control over his pitches. And that slider is fantastic, too. His mechanics and release point look all sorts of borked.

How impressive it is for a city/metro area umpteen times larger than Milwaukee to have its fans travel 90 minutes.

The former NBA commissioner doesn't get what?

Nobody said you had to make a choice.

"Starting Burnes" sounds like the title of a new fall sitcom on CBS.

If you square around to bunt, see the ball screaming right at you, try to turn/dodge/duck/whatever, but the bat stays in the zone, it can easily be interpreted as not intentionally trying to bunt. You WERE trying to bunt initially, but you changed your action to trying to avoid being hit. As I said in a previous post and as other have mentioned, the intent is up to interpretation, but it is certainly easy to see how a bat could be in the zone, yet the batter isn't intentionally trying to bunt.

I do not believe the Reds' announcers are umpires. While umpires obviously make mistakes, I trust they know the rule book better than announcers.
-
The umpire's explanation made complete sense based on the rule and the definition of a bunt. I actually appreciate the ump detailing it for everyone. My only point of contention would be whether or not the batter was actually trying to get out of the way and not intending to bunt anymore (in which case the call is correct) or if he was getting out of the way, but STILL trying to bunt (in which case the call is incorrect). It's really up to the umpire's interpretation of the action.

That's in tee-ball.

When/If Does Yelich Become an Extension Candidate?
dlk9s replied to TwinsBrewersWorldSeries's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Gotta wait until he has a down week before offering him an extension. -
On the bright side, it's better than a leadoff walk after NOT scoring.
-
So the Reds' comeback will only be half as painful as usual!
-
7 strikes and 2 balls is as pretty good ratio, at least.
-
The strategy is to let the opposing team go up 4-0 in the first for a change.

That's the tried and true strategy of underpromising with the intent to overdeliver. -
2018 Standings and Playoff Race Discussion
dlk9s replied to Eye Black's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Eh, it's really hard to sweep even the worst teams. Just win the series and it's cool. -
Briggs always liked Lou Gehrig ever since Gehrig gave him a wink and a smile at the Empire State Building ribbon cutting ceremony.

2018 Standings and Playoff Race Discussion
dlk9s replied to Eye Black's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I think realistically we're out of the division race, but clearly we still have a chance, if that makes sense. Like, yes, if we play really well and take it to the Cubs, we can still take the division, but I don't honestly think that will happen. I'll keep hope alive until the math tells me otherwise, though!
