On the replay, I'm not convinced that the pitcher's heel didn't make contact with the base before Contreras's toe did. If it didn't, obviously safe but I would need another/different look to be sure.
I'm fine with him playing at the moment as he's earned that. I just hope they don't pencil him in as the regular 3B next year. I still view him as a long-term utility guy.
Yeah, Brewers are even better than league average in 2 out RISP situations not just RISP in general. Doesn't seem like it can be true and it can be frustrating but can't argue with the stats.
Baseball reference under the batting splits tab. Wish they had all teams individually listed but they don't. Only league as a whole but then have to go to Brewers page to compare.
Brewers actually have better than league-average stats with RISP. .775 OPS versus .756 for the league as a whole. Score a run 36.5% of plate appearances versus 34.1% for the league.

Started the season with 4 Brewers I just couldn't stand, for a variety of reasons. In order, Bush, Lauer, Urias and Rowdy. Can't wait for Rowdy to be gone so I can get a bingo on my card.
