Harvey Kuehn, the player, looks older then CC does now. I suspect Kuehn in the crib, might have also. https://onmilwaukee.com/articles/82-brewers-1982 You also have to remember some of the very serious health problems Harvey Kuenn had that led to his death at age 57.

Bucknor to the rescue. Rock: “Too close to take”
-
At least Hader can come in with the tying run only on deck.
-
After what we saw last weekend Counsell has a lot of guts sitting down Hader here. I hope he doesnt have to bring Hader in to face Moustakas as the tying run with nobody out. Especially with the hitters the Reds have coming up and Cousins wild spells this could be dangerous.
-
That was the opposite of squeezing a pitcher who can’t find the strike zone. If the batters swing at pitches way out of the strike zone, the ump expands his zone too.
-
Those miserable ABs could be costly.
-
ABs don’t get any worse than what Cain just did.
-
With interest as it sets up Peterson’s hit. Let’s keep the bad break of the ball bouncing over the wall from costing the Brewers a run.
-
It’ll be a miracle if Garcia can make it through the season without a broken bone in his hand or arm.
-
I blinked and Boxberger was in and out of the inning. Something pretty dramatic is going to have to happen to stretch this one to 4 hours.
-
Another easy inning for Castillo. He could be going 8 tonight.
-
If there was any doubt about this being Woodruff’s last inning, the Castellanos AB sealed it. Should probably be his last batter.
-
Castillo and Woodruff have both had pretty crappy Augusts. Woodruff in 3 starts has an ERA of 4.50 and a WHIP of 1.500. Castillo has 4 starts with an ERA of 5.09 and a WHIP of 1.435. Difference is Castillo was a dumpster fire in April and May, while Woodruff was pitching like a Cy Young candidate. Like I said earlier, Castillo will likely pitch well against the Brewers tonight (because he always does), but if one of these guys is going to right the ship for the rest of the season, I imagine it's likely going to be Woodruff. Castillo had one awful outing against the Indians in which he gave up 8 runs. He also has two August starts in which he gave up just 1 run, once in 6 innings and once in 7.
-
The threat for a second run died quickly.
-
Tonight’s game plan: keep it scoreless through 7 and try to win it in the 8th and 9th.
-
I don’t think the Cardinals and Brewers are similar market size. The Cardinals market covers a much bigger area beyond the immediate St. Louis area, whereas the Brewers are kind of penned in by Chicago, the Twin Cities, and Lake Michigan. As one of the old 16 franchises, they have a big following in areas throughout the Great Plains and mid south. I’m sure their broadcast rights revenue is much higher than the Brewers, which is one of the lowest in MLB.

You’d have to think he’s injured to get cuffed around by a terrible team like this.
-
The Brewers only need one more run to increase their per game average against the Reds at AFF.
-
I have. In fact, of all of the sports I played, running bases was the only time I ever pulled a hamstring and it happened than once.
-
Just missed a big bomb.
-
CB Bucknor at 1B tonight and and behind the plate tomorrow. Get ready for some aggravation.
-
1000x this!! He is the 2021 version of Yuniesky Betancourt. Hard to compare a utility player who is only brought up to fill in for injuries to an everyday SS.

When I first looked at the remaining schedules a few weeks ago, this stretch of 5 series stood out as an opportunity for the Reds to make a big charge. After this series, the Brewers go on to play 13 more games without a day off, with 10 of the games against playoff contenders (Giants, Cardinals, Phillies) and the series against the Twins with none of the Big 3 starting, unless Peralta comes back on the first day he is eligible to come off the IL. At the same time, the Reds have only one series against a playoff contender (a home series against the Cardinals) with the others against the Marlins, Tigers, and Cubs. I think it’s important for the Brewers to win at least 2 of 3 in this series to keep the Reds from using it as a springboard to a big move.
-
Tonight’s game starts what figures to be a very difficult stretch of 16 games in 16 days, with 13 of them against teams with winning records fighting for playoff spots, including 4 against the Giants. If the Brewers can get through these 5 series without losing too much of their lead, they will be in great shape heading into the last 20 games. Tonight’s game is a big one to set the tone. Task number one is to break the spell that the Reds pitchers have had over them at AFF.
