[TURBO]

Send Khris Davis back to the minors, let the kid get some at bats there since RRR can't seem to give him a start here.

 

Frustrating.

[AZBrewCrew]

I met Yount a few years back at one of the Einstein Bagels down here in Phoenix. Truly a classy guy.

[The stache]

Yount and Clemente are my two all-time favorites. God, I would love to meet Robin.

 

Oh, please let Gorzo be ok. That didn't look good.

 

We are absolutely snake bit. If we didn't have bad luck, we'd have no luck at all right now.

[AZBrewCrew]

Im smelling yet another DL stint for a Brewers pitcher

Send Khris Davis back to the minors, let the kid get some at bats there since RRR can't seem to give him a start here.

Frustrating.

 

I don't get it, turborickey. Why have these guys up if they're not going to be played? We know what Rickie Weeks is going to provide us. We don't know what Scooter Gennett might do because he hasn't had any consistent playing time. Khris Davis has crushed two first pitch home runs, and yet we're not seeing him. I'm surprised Caleb Gindl is getting any playing time at all, and I feel if Braun hadn't been suspended, we wouldn't be seeing him at all.

 

I love listening to Robin. So humble. He will always be the face of our franchise. He could come up to the booth every night, as far as I'm concerned.

[trwi7]

That's why some of us wanted Aoki traded. He's an older, mediocre hitter with one more year on his contract. Gindl in RF, Davis in LF.

[jjgott]

I mean, Zimmermann is a righty so that's probably why Krush isn't in there tonight. I agree with the consensus that it's better to test out some of the younger guys more often, but I think it's pretty obvious why Davis is out tonight.

[The stache]

Nice job running ourselves out of a possible run. Sigh.

 

And of course Francisco hits a double off the wall in center. The pitch after Gomez gets nailed at third.

[The stache]

Luc!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The stache]

Can't let them score here. Gotta get Harper out.

[The stache]

How many times have you heard it? "Should have been a double play".

 

Instead, it bounces right past Rickie.

 

4 to 1 now.
