2018-09-03: Cubs (Hamels) at Brewers (Davies) 1:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 4-3 -- Walk-Off Win on Yelich’s Bases Loaded Fielder’s Choice]

Edwards will walk guys. Have patience and you'll get baserunners.

 

This.

[bigredrobbo]

Braun with a bases loaded bomb. Calling it now!

[Bulldogboy]

If you are the crew you have to find a way to get off the deck here. A loss here is real tough.

[Bulldogboy]

Two vets coming up big!!

[PinaMadness]

[sarcasm]You sac bunt with Yelich here?[/sarcasm]

[lcbj68c]

BUNT THEM OVER...

[82brewcrew82]

Bunt?

*DUCKS*

[tmwiese55]

No thanks, take your 3 chances with 3 very good hitters. Yelly is on fire

[pacopete4]

Knock one outta here!

[Bulldogboy]

Brewers up and crowd gets quiet. Crazy.

[wildcat83]

Counsell just can't win man.

 

True but leaving a hard thrower like Hader in there for three innings is risky. I was really surprised to see him come back out for the 8th.

 

Starter his whole minor league career, pitched 3 innings multiple times this year, only 17 pitches. Only thing that was risky is the Cubs lineup. He was still the right choice.

[PinaMadness]

Should've bunted there.

[MrTPlush]

Absolutely garbage at bat right there, wow.

[Bulldogboy]

Bad strikeout there. Not Rizzo like.

[pacopete4]

At least it wasn't a double play ball?

[jjfanec]

Are people seriously saying we should have bunted with one of the best hitters in baseball? He struck out. It happens.

[lcbj68c]

Needed a productive AB there from Yelich. Move them over for a sac fly, at a minimum.

[82brewcrew82]

I would've pinch hit for Aguilar here with either of Shaw or Mous.

[mtrebs]

That’s the one complaint I have against Yelich. There have been quite a few times there have been two on with no outs this season and he decides to lose all discipline and strikes out badly. He’s done so much for the team, but we need to move those runners over.

Can't happen there. Swung at three balls.

[Bulldogboy]

Lefty for Braun?? Or is that blasphemy?

the guy had a bad AB. Doesn't mean the manager should've taken the bat out of his hands. He just had a clutch hit last time up. Can't come through every time

I don’t want to make it seem like I’m complaining about Yelich. He’s amazing. It’s just certain circumstances where I wished he came through.

[Bigblast]

How does Jesus swing at a pinch that bounces on home plate?

[82brewcrew82]

Couldn't have thought of two worse at bats from your 2/3 hitters.
