2018-09-25: Brewers (Gonzalez) at Cardinals (Gomber) 7:15 PM CDT [Brewers win, 12-4 -- Braun 2 HRs, Yelich for MVP of NL, AL, & Universe]

[dlk9s]

That's a generous call to put it mildly.

 

If MLB Gameday is to be believed (I'm not watching the game), strike three was just the tiniest bit outside of the strike zone. In fact, part of the circle representing the ball is barely touching the corner of the zone.

 

Maybe it looked worse on TV.

[SRB]

tough to admit but on Carpenter's side there. huge game, best player, terrible call and he was walking away. hitter before had a bad call against him too. Last night went more our way than theirs.

 

Don't mouth off at the ump if you don't want to risk getting tossed. Pretty simple.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

You can never score too many runs against STL and we should have more than 7.

[HarveysWBs]

That is the fastest I've ever seen Martinez run.

[FVBrewerFan]

Seems like those calls went against us for the first 145 games, nice to see a few go our way. Cancel that order for the computers.

[TURBO]

Hate to see a star get tossed in a key game...oh nvm, I'm loving this. Hope they get the manager and Molina, too, just for giggles.

 

I almost always agree...except against the Cardinals. Even the Cubs I don't like seeing a Bryant or Rizzo tossed, but the Cardinals can eat it...that organization is a bunch of pricks.

 

I like seeing all Cardinals, and all Cubs tossed.

 

Toss them all!

Tonight the Cardinal Way is... To The Showers

Walking away but barking at the ump with his head turned. He had every right to be tossed.

[adambr2]

Craig really pulling some terrible strings tonight. This should not be a game.

[trwi7]

Knebel for the 3rd day in a row and the 4th time in 5 games. What could go wrong?

[dlk9s]

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I want all the best players on opposing teams ejected.

[mtrebs]

Need to get out of this inning without damage.

[KeithStone53151]

I'll also add, nothing Carpenter said or did seemed to warrant an ejection. He was super calm, especially initially...just had a conversation. That was a very very quick trigger. But again, I feel zero remorse for the Cardinal way...

[Bulldogboy]

huge k

[OldSchoolSnapper]

That is such a huge K. One more.

[LouisEly]

Need the K in Knebel right now... atta boy!

[adambr2]

Need one more...

[TURBO]

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I want all the best players on opposing teams ejected.

 

Yup, with you on that... 100%!

[topper09er]

Good boy Knebel, you know Ozuna is sitting dead red

[mtrebs]

I'll also add, nothing Carpenter said or did seemed to warrant an ejection. He was super calm, especially initially...just had a conversation. That was a very very quick trigger. But again, I feel zero remorse for the Cardinal way...

 

You never know if he said any of the magic words that cause immediate ejections.

[YelichPosse]

Pretty sure whatever he said to Martinez passing by was colorful and purposefully loud enough for the ump to hear , that’s what got him

[HarveysWBs]

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I want all the best players on opposing teams ejected.

 

I hate the idea of "ump shows" on general principle. It should never be about them.

[B-Train]

Cardinals are putting just as much pressure on our guys tonight as well.

[trwi7]

Jorge De La Rosa just walked in a run. He's thrown 13 pitches. 3 have been strikes.

[LouisEly]

Ozuna is a big-time fastball hitter... hope the knuckle curve is working.
