  1. 2B Kevin Ereu with the wild 0-for-0, 3 R, 5 BB, 2 SB evening. He plates the go ahead run after a, you guessed it, walk; SB; throwing error (Catcher); advance to 3B. Score on a Paulino single.
  2. Hey now! ACL Crew back in the Win column improving to 13-5. Love to see it! 11-9 W.
  3. And, suddenly, our best bet to score a run appears to be consecutive two out walks from Fielder in Ereu. I like our odds.
  4. I'm extremely glad a young man named 'Handelfry' is having the season he is having for the ACL Crew. That is an All-Timer. Just poked his 7th dub and we have men on 2nd and 3rd. Nobody down. Bottom of the 7th. A little fuego is cooking.
  5. Ereu earns his fourth free pass of his evening. Yowza. I'm going to need a walk walk-off to finish this game off the right way. The Crew now have 11 free passes in the bottom of the sixth.
  6. Another single. 2/3 IP. 3 H. 2 BB. 2 ER. 0 K. A nice 'Welcome Back, Connor!' rehab debut 😂.
  7. LHP Connor Thomas' rehab debut is gretted with a slowly hit single to 3B. He walks another. He sees two stolen bases on him in the frame. He just gave up a two-run single into RF. It's 9-9. Par for the coarse in this contest. Yeeesh.
  8. Well, a lead-off double off Dorchies. A WP advancing the lead-off to 3B. And now a misplayed single by RF Engel Paulino has another runner on 3rd. The lead runner scored. 9-6 Crew. Man on 3rd. Nobody out. It's going to be one of those.
  9. I wish I could disagree with you. Because I can not I raise you a 'Sad Face!
  10. You are indeed correct. My post was meant to be overly exaggerated and very sarcastic and not to be taken wholeheartedly. I feel some of that. I don't feel all of it by any stretch. And, I don't attach to any of it. I was mainly being a caricature of my own emotions going about this ongoing season as a whole.
  11. Dunn is in a 2-2 count. The relief arm is already at 35 pitches. Fouls back a heater. Breaking ball low and inside in the dirt. He lays off. 3-2 count. Everyone will be moving. Dunn goes down staring at a dead center heater. Can not happen. You have to be sitting on that pitch. Yuck. Sounds lose 2-1. Ugly L given the opportunity late. Back at it Wednesday.
  12. Another full count. A check swing foul. A swing and a miss. Several heaters all over the map. Hall adeptly fouls a heater on the outer black (97 mph) down the 1B foul territory. He K's swinging on a check swing on a knee high just outside heater. He went. Dunn with two down will try to tie it or take the lead. Bases juiced.
  13. Herron works a walk. He is fooled on a high 3-2 breaking ball. It is called just high and out of the zone - I believe the right call. Bases juiced. One down. Hall is to the dish.
  14. Zamora is granted a challenge (see, they had one...she refused to grant Alfaro his). He fails. None the less, he pokes a shallow flare into CF sending Rosario home. Men on 1st and 2nd. One down. Sounds trail 2-1. Herron will try to do further damage.
  15. After Rosario takes the lead off walk down 2-0 top of 9, Wes Clarke K's swinging. His 3rd K of his evening. Just an absolutely non-committal confused half swing on a 2-2 breaking ball dead center. Not a good look. Man on 1st. One down. Delgado then lines a first pitch inside breaking ball into RF. Men on the corners. One down.
  16. Sweet was tossed because he was defending his player and the ineptitude of the home plate ump. Alfaro challenged a low 2-2 strike call on a breaking ball. He tapped his helmet immediately. She refused to grant the challenge. The Sounds very much have a challenge remaining. Ridiculous actions by the lady working the dish.
  17. One outing later and Hudson's velo is back down to 91-92. He did touch 92.8 mph in this inning but that's it. He's working with men on the corners and two down. Manager Rick Sweet has already been ejected.
  18. Nice escape K swinging there from Elvin. Hopefully the Sounds bats wake up.
  19. I'm just glad Murphy wasn't listening to my thoughts during this One. Honestly, after Patrick threw his first ball of the ball game I was calling for RHP Nick Mears to warm up. Gotta see the forest for the trees. Mearsy had that coveted one game off, well, two games ago. He's ready to pitch nine after yesterday's mini meltdown. I think missing that opportunity was the story of this game. Not pitching Uribe and Megill for the 6th time in 9 games. Gotta use Mears for the weapon he is. He can go through a batting order 5 times if you only let him. When the starter isn't hitting the strike zone with every pitch, pull him. He's out. Mears is in. Secret weapon.
  20. Here's the thing: That trade was a sensible trade from every angle. The end results were emblematic of, well, being the Brewers. But the player-for-player swap was defensible from nearly every angle given what it offered both clubs. Brewers addressed a glaring weakness and traded from organizational strength and Santana played quite well during the playoff run. I don't begrudge it one iota. I supported the trade then and looking back I feel no different. I am in overt denial, however, and in a land of cope since last year's season ended. I routinely find myself questioning Brewers 40-Man decisions and all the hoopla happening from within that 40-Man. It's confounding. And it's familiar to a different era of fandom. I don't uh like it! (Last sentence said in poor Brooklyn Italian accent)
  21. If the Red Sox are a wet fart...are the Brewers that uncomfortable pre-wet fart sensation? Like that discomfort before the relief? OR are they what's left after the deed is done? You know, the uncertainty? Can't quite put my finger on it.
  22. "I've endured the first two months of 2025 Brewers (and their entire off-season) Sarcasm alert": Ahhhh, yes. Seeing how they are handling this current run of brilliance from Henderson makes their outright gifting of RHP Shane Smith to the White Sox make all the more sense. Let's hold on tight to Alexander so we can use his impact innings in more high leverage spots; burn another Option on Hendo; lose his uber-productive arm for 15 days...and all the while we can watch Murphy fumble through bullpen decisions and usage like a Freshman High School coach. This season continues to baffle in immeasurable ways. Thankfully, we have Mona's bat boosting us from that nine-hole while we get his stellar defense back at SS today. In one off-season, the Brewers have morphed into a very unserious organization. In terms of entertainment and baseball joy value, it's depressing. There's over-reaction in there. There is very much also painful truth in there. And, it is precisely these types of transactions and manipulations that tell me the Brewers are still likely thinking they can just turn their season around...maybe if we just overpay for a couple of borderline vets! Eeeeeek! I continue to think I am mostly at odds with Matt Arnold and his inner circle of MLB roster decision-makers in 2025 and I do not like it one bit. I am SO ready and willing to be wrong.
  23. OK. Planned shorter outing. He did throw 70 pitches on Tuesday. He left with a man on 1B and two down. Mendoza gave up the fourth run...that will be charged to Crow. The ol' RISP psychhhhhe!
  24. Did anyone see why Crow was pulled at 45 pitches?
