  1. Remembering what happened when Peralta pitched 6 strong shutout innings against the Braves and left with an 8-0 lead, I’m just focusing on getting a win, and preferably without seeing the tying run at the plate.
  2. I don’t know if it’s an “official announcement”, but Woodruff and Burnes are listed as probables to follow Peralta tonight. They would be the logical choices because both would be starting with 5 days rest. With another off day on Monday there’s no reason to slide a sixth starter in there this weekend.
  3. Also need a lot of runs because he isn’t going to have a lot of bullpen help behind him. Maybe someone can “accidentally” cut a power line tomorrow so they can play 2 7 inning games on Saturday and avoid the bullpen altogether. Sometimes we forget that the other team has a bullpen as well, and these days it's almost always worse than ours. Even if teams have bullpens that are worse than the Brewers, they also have offenses that are significantly better than the Brewers, and the result is that the Brewers have given up significantly more runs after the 7th inning than they have scored. In the 8th and 9th innings they have been outscored 46-32, with the 8th inning at 33-15 being the real culprit. With strong starters and a strong closer, I like the Brewers chances in 7 inning games. It’s that bridge from the 6th to the 9th that concerns me.

  5. They have lost 4 when leading after 6, 2 when leading after 7, and none when leading after 8. I don’t know offhand if that is 6 different games or if 1 or 2 of the ones leading after 7 were also ones where they were leading after 6.
  6. Walks and errors usually come back to bite you. So does giving up multiple hits almost every inning. Williams isn’t going to make it out of the 8th.
  7. Welcome to the board! The announcers are following the DBacks pronunciation guide.
  8. Who got thrown out, I guess I missed that. Anderson on his way to the dugout.
  9. It was only a matter of time. This has been like watching Suppan pitch. You know he isn’t going to fool anyone so you just have to hope for the hitters to hit a liner at someone.
  10. Anderson playing with fire hitting the pitcher with an 0-2 pitch and then relying on a SS to make a throw to first.
  11. That was the only way for Yelich to get an RBI with the speed on the bases.
  12. This is of those games where it seems like almost every batter for the opponent is hitting the ball hard and it’s only a matter of time before they start scoring. Meanwhile nobody on the Brewers is making good contact except for Yelich’s sharp fly ball, and you wonder if they’re going to get a hit, much less a run.
  13. Ok, but what I always ask people is who do you want to lose? It's early in the season and there are roughly 13 NL teams that have a chance to make the postseason. A loss by a first place team today may not be a good thing if by the end of the season that team is in 4th place. Even when it's divisional opponents vs other divisions. It could very well come down to us and San Diego for a wild card, the Cubs beating them might be a really good thing. The Cubs losing is always a good thing.
  14. And there’s the ballgame. Gambling on leaving Lauer in while he was obviously laboring didn’t pay off.
  15. I always laugh when Schroeder says someone “doesn’t run all that well”. That’s shorthand for slower than the hills.
  16. Brewers SS throwing to first with slow runners lumbering down the line is a recipe for disaster.
  17. O’Driscoll might want to check the rule book. Specifically section 9.06(f). Well, I think O’Discoll is right and wrong based on 9.06(f) and its commentary that goes over almost the exact situation..... he doesn’t get a double (right); (wrong) even if he did hit second base, the winning run is at 3rd base and would not require a double to score the run. Hit the base or not, by rule it is a single. https://baseballrulesacademy.com/official-rule/mlb/9-06-determining-value-of-base-hits/ Correct. He has the right end result (Urias credited with a single) but whether or not Urias touched second base is irrelevant. Touching the base would be relevant if Narvaez had been on second. Then Urias would have received credit for a double if he touched second, even if Narvaez crossed the plate first, and even if the ball had bounced off the wall and not over it.
  18. Looking at the rules (9.06 (f)), Urias would only get credit for a single even if he had run to second base. To paraphrase the rule, a batter can only get credit for as many bases as are advanced by the runner who scored the winning run. A home run hit over the fence is the only exception.
