2018-09-10: Brewers (Miley) at Cubs (Lester) 7:05 PM CDT [Brewers win, 3-2; Hader dominates over 2 IP, & JJ slams the door]

LOL oh man, is that Schwarber in RF? That was hysterical

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

If Lester is hurt, that is really going to hurt the Cubs' chances this season.

[AKCheesehead]

I'm having to follow on espn.com. What is going on, it shows Lester just left on an 0-2 count to Kratz. Accurate?

[Eye Black]

Brewers managed 8 hits off Lester and some additional very solid contact. Would be really great to have a little more to show for it with a base hit here.

Zobrist. Normally a very sure-handed fielder.

 

Yeah, Moose is not a fast runner.

[tmwiese55]

darn, really thought after the stumble out there he'd be able to score. Eddy apparently thought the same and was only wrong by 45 feet.

Kratz hit an RBI double to RF. Moose was sent and stopped halfway and went back to 3rd. Lester is coming out injured

Kratz doubled, Lester came out after the double

No, Kratz hit a double down the 1B line. Then they pulled Lester due to injury. He didn't look right at all.

[tmwiese55]

haha, nice. i know Arcia hasn't hit well this year, but he has had a bit of a nack it seems in these situations...

[bensheeps]

Moose was fast enough there

[LouisEly]

Who had Eastern Mennonnite University as even having a baseball team, much less producing a major leaguer?

 

Edit - they have two! Larry Sheets is the other!

And who had Larry Sheets putting up a .921 OPS in 1987? And hitting .316 with 31 HRs and 94 RBI? And not getting one MVP vote for doing that?

[brewerfan82]

barely, lol

[LouisEly]

Edwards will walk guys - you have to be patient with him.

[AKCheesehead]

Ok. So...if Arcia gets on, have to go for the jugular.

[topper09er]

I guess the moose was gassed on the double and just figured he would jog home?

[PinaMadness]

Watch Edwards have a hissy fit again.

[TURBO]

I love watching this punk struggle. lol

[Fear The Chorizo]

Edwards has been terrible for a few weeks now - he's almost guaranteed at least one walk or wild pitch per inning

[Eye Black]

It is a fair question why the Cubs didn’t get Edwards up in the bullpen after the first Lester injury visit to the mound?

[MoreTrife]

Cubs pitching does not impress me.

[pacopete4]

Granderson here and not Thames says a lot.

[PinaMadness]

Granderson got lucky. Not a good AB at all.

1987 was the anomaly year where the ball was juiced and power numbers were way, way up.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Unfortunately result was the same
