2016-06-10 Mets (Harvey) at Brewers (Guerra), 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers lose, 2-1; 11 innings]

[adambr2]

Now we wasted Lucroy and Broxton for nothing.

[markedman5]

It really is sad that Kirk is what amounts to our starting center fielder.

[The stache]

Brilliant. At this rate, Braun will be below .300 by the All Star break...hell, by next week. Ten days ago, he had the second highest average in the Majors. In the high .360s. Now he's at .316. He's clearly not right, but our idiot manager, who is sure to give him a rest day off when he's hitting the cover off the ball, is running him into the ground when he's obviously hurting.

[adambr2]

Nieuwenhuis plays way, way too much, even with the limited options we have. He fields his position okay, but other than that he brings nothing to the table as an everyday guy.

 

It's too bad about Liriano in spring training. This would have been a really good year for him to get an extended chance.

[adambr2]

Yeah, our usage of Braun is puzzling. When he's at his best, he gets plenty of time off. When he's struggling, he doesn't get any time off.

 

I'm going to the game on Sunday so I'm pretty confident he'll be off that day.

[adambr2]

He pushed him off the bag. Can they overturn that?

[jerichoholicninja]

Well, that's just great.

[adambr2]

Only the Brewers.

[pacopete4]

I guess not. This is flipping brutal.

[reillymcshane]

The sad part is that if had just slid properly he would have been fine. Simple fundamentals.

[AKCheesehead]

I've absolutely had it with replay.

[pacopete4]

The sad part is that if had just slid properly he would have been fine. Simple fundamentals.

 

 

Same with Hill earlier in the game. Amazes me that these guys do some of these things.

[jerichoholicninja]

The sad part is that if had just slid properly he would have been fine. Simple fundamentals.

 

How was that poor fundamentals? He slid in to the bag and the fielder pushed his hand off.

[folly412]

Half of reviews are meaningless since they don't seem capable of factoring in any additional considerations to simple safe or out calls. Blocking the plate, pushing runners off the bag just too complicated for the review booth.

[adambr2]

New York does seem to benefit from every call.

[And That]

Block the plate off? Sure.

 

Push the runner off the bag? Why not.

 

What the hell is going on here?

[AKCheesehead]

[sarcasm]Why we didn't just shove Cabrera off 3rd and tag him for the easy out there I'll never know.[/sarcasm]

[And That]

A little surprised Counsell didn't light up the umpiring crew on the Flores slide. Yes, Flores came in way too wide and maybe slid a little late but he's safe if not for the illegal tag by the third baseman.

[jerichoholicninja]

Good lord. What the hell.

[jerichoholicninja]

The Brewers could have an argument that a runner that was put out was acting as a live runner. You can't do that. But it's pretty obvious no one knows the rules tonight.

[markedman5]

Now Villar drops a line drive and Brewers are behind.

 

What a cluster you know what of a game this has been.

[reillymcshane]

The sad part is that if had just slid properly he would have been fine. Simple fundamentals.

 

How was that poor fundamentals? He slid in to the bag and the fielder pushed his hand off.

He was too wide and slid too late - went past the bag a bit too far.

[topper09er]

O my God, learn the rules. Scooter needed to tag the runner sitting in front of him, then step on the base. easy DP

 

pathetic

[pacopete4]

I'm not sure Scooter has the highest IQ. Either way, I'm to the point where I would rather have this game just over anyways. What horrible baseball and umpiring. I'm ready for bed.

[Baldkin]

I've never seen a fielder do more things wrong on one play than Villar did there. Seriously.

 

Drops line drive.

Doesn't immediately throw home.

Misses tag on runner.

Gets force out. (This was okay)

Gets guy in a rundown who is already out.... Instead of throwing to third.
