2017-04-07 Cubs (Anderson) at Brewers (Nelson) 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 2-1, 11 innings, on walkoff WP]

[adambr2]

I'd say that Ball 2 to Captain Kirk is called Strike 3 about 99 times out of 100.

 

Villar, if you're turning down big guaranteed money to bet on yourself, you better get it together sooner or later.

[adambr2]

What is Rizzo whining about? Surely he knows the rule.

[yfinn6]

I thought for sure Rizzo was going to hit strike 3 450', instead he swung right over the top.

Yeah I know BA and Rock were saying 'great pitch', and I'm not saying it was a bad one, but that got a little too much of the plate for my liking for an 0-2 pitch.

[adambr2]

Nice inning Torres!

[yfinn6]

Seems like the Brewers have barreled a lot of balls but hit them right at defenders tonight.

[adambr2]

Boy, Santana is slow. Figured it would at least be a close play.

[yfinn6]

Braun let a great pitch to hit go by for strike one, swung at a bad pitch for strike two, laid off a ball in the other box, then swings at a ball that almost hits him in the head. Probably one of the worst Braun at-bats I've ever seen.

[MrTPlush]

Lol Braun....wow.

[topper09er]

That wasnt even close Braun, come on

[adambr2]

Boy that was a pitiful AB by Braun.

 

Our #1-#3 hitters today, Villar, Santana, and Braun are hitting .150, .077, and .200 respectively for the season. That's not going to cut it.

[adambr2]

Thought that had a chance off the bat.

Very early man. Santana and Braun could both be well over .300 if not for some bad breaks so far.

I know, and I don't expect it to continue for any of them. Perez I'm a bit worried about. I think he could be a 1 year wonder. I just don't trust guys who just can't get on base to sustain offensive success.

[adambr2]

Tommy Milone vs. Kyle Hendricks tomorrow. We had better pull out all the stops to win tonight .

[yfinn6]

What a treat Brewer fans are in for tomorrow.

 

Seriously Tores, just pitch the ball.

[pacopete4]

I love it. Nice job Torres.

[adambr2]

What a treat Brewer fans are in for tomorrow.

 

Seriously Tores, just pitch the ball.

 

I don't blame him one bit and the Cub fans complaining about it can shove it. It's the 9th inning in a tie game, that baserunner at 1st means everything.

[pacopete4]

Tommy Milone vs. Kyle Hendricks tomorrow. We had better pull out all the stops to win tonight .

 

 

It'll somehow be the game we win. What a stretch of pitching for the crew.

[topper09er]

Please don't make me Neftali Sad

[topper09er]

Did they not have a trivia question today?

[adambr2]

Yes!

 

Now please, please walk this off and send these Cubs fans home sad.

[pacopete4]

Perez just refuses to walk. It's fine when he's hot but very annoying when he's not. Maybe Franklin will be something and take that role. I sure wouldn't mind.

He actually took the first 2 pitches and I thought it was going to be a positive AB. Then he started hacking.

[topper09er]

Now with Braun and Feliz this appears to be the first time in franchise history we have 2 ROYs on the team at the same time. We were close with Bob Hamelin on the roster in 98 and Nomo in 99.
