2019-04-05: Cubs (Quintana) at Brewers (Woodruff) [Brewers win, 13-10 -- Brewers tee off on Quintana early en route to tallying 15 hits and 5 HRs in slugfest]

[clancyphile]

Thames with a jack...

 

So, should we have Hernan Perez finish it off on the mound?

[owbc]

Loving the Cubs' bullpen

[adambr2]

Oh man did Thames need that one.

[xisxisxis]

crap another inning with multiple runs... when will the Brewers learn to really pour it on...

[dlk9s]

Quick question, apologies if this has been asked: Are we pouring it on yet?

[PinaMadness]

Who would've thunk Arcia and Thames would go yard in the same game?

[Montezuma]

Happy for Thames...

[MrTPlush]

No, he needs to catch

[Zad Fnark]

Yep... Kintzler.

[PeaveyFury]

That Thames homerun was delightful.

The real issue is the crews inability, when ahead early, to not pour it on, coast if you will, till opponent comes back to make the game too close for comfort. Happening this year again, like last year, far too often. Need to start burying these teams.

 

This just keeps getting better and better

[TURBO]

The fact anyone believes the problem with a team is some sort of inability to pour it on when ahead is so absurd that it baffles the senses that someone actually said it. There are a lot of ways a team is good or bad but pour on ability is not a real thing.

 

I totally get the complaint that this team often puts up a crooked number early, then proceeds to go dormant for a long stretch of the game, while the opposing team chips away. It happened a ton in 2017 ... less often last year. But that's baseball.

 

Well that makes 3 of us, silent majority it is.

 

Any chance you can just shut up?

 

Seriously, just knock it off.

[Ennder]

Who would've thunk Arcia and Thames would go yard in the same game?

 

And in the same game as Perez.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Schwarber is really not a good LF

[young guns]

[82brewcrew82]

If Yelich were any good he'd have poured it on there.

[TURBO]

That Thames homerun was delightful.

 

It really was, and he needed it to get some confidence and stop pressing...

[Brew crew 92]

Quick question, apologies if this has been asked: Are we pouring it on yet?

 

Yes, finally!

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Pathetic display tonight. Still seven runs short of 20. The issue is we never pour it on.

Saturday and Sunday still to go in a three-game set...

 

Get the sweep, send a message.

 

Then, it's the Dodgers... and time for payback.

[topper09er]

Does Braun have some place to be?

[clancyphile]

Now, if they just put Thames at first, Moose at second, Aguilar at third, and have Perez finish this... most of the pen aside from Anderson will be rested for Saturday/Sunday...

[Eye Black]

Anyone know why the camera angle is directly behind home plate this year? I miss the side angle.

It seems like I am in the minority on this, but I love that they changed the camera angle. Pitch movement is much more pronounced with the straight on angle. They changed it before last season I believe.

[xisxisxis]

So much for that +3 run differential!

 

This comment didn’t age well.

And what about Now?!?

[markedman5]

Really happy for Chase..... settled things down after the homer and really pitched well when it was needed.

 

No let's not do anything dumb so we can save Hader
