2019-05-27: Brewers (González) at Twins (Pineda) [Brewers win, 5-4 -- Arcia RBI double and 2-run home run lead comeback win]

[wallus]

Those lousy Brewers won again. Crazy.

 

[sveumrules]

Arcia can't speak English yet? Seriously?

 

I'm sure he can.

 

I'm also sure he's more comfortable in his native tongue.

 

Ichiro had a translator his entire career.

[Brew crew 92]

Not bad for a team that didn't score enough runs to win, only hits home runs, has a weak rotation and lackluster bullpen.

 

They won, so they did score enough.

They do score the highest % of runs by home runs than any team in baseball, but do occasionally score without the long ball.

I don’t think the rotation is weak, in fact, since Gio added and Anderson added and Burnes and Peralta to the pen statistically one of the best.

Lackluster bullpen?

Now I’m stumped,

With Burnes Guerra Jeffress Hader shutting things down in the late innings Albers peralta Houser holding their own, I’d say it’s one of the best pens in the NL.

Really curious to see how Jeffress performs next time he pitches

I'm on vacation and was listening to the game while walking on the beach and I lost the internet signal and just before it went out they said the four umpires went to the mound after the first batter or pitch with Jeffress and were looking at the ball. What happened? Also, am I to assume they didn't find anything being as he stayed in the game.

They made him change those neoprene sleeves that they wear from grey to blue. The bad thing was that someone hit a liner right at his head. He caught it but had to do some maneuvers that would make a gymnast proud. They removed him as a precaution but I'm betting his back, at a minimum, is feeling a little sore.

[Pugger]

Seemed odd to pull Gio mid inning with nobody on.

 

Didn't he have over 100 pitches at that point?

[Pugger]

Kind of a loud road crowd for that Arcia homer.

 

There are usually a lot of Brewer fans at these games by fans who live in the western part of WI.

[Pugger]

Arcia can't speak English yet? Seriously?

 

He probably can but he is hard to understand like Jesus is.

[NYChez]

Do you think Hernan knew that ball was out (see lower right).

[brewmann04]

This was a very big win for the Crew last night great relief pitching and timely HR by Arcia.

There are a ton of Wisconsin Natives that live in Minneapolis as well, me included. We were at the game and it was a blast. I like this friendly rivalry because there isn't a ton of bad blood like with the cubs. Both sides can have fun with it. That said, it was really awesome to hear the cheers when the Brewers had a big play. Speaking of loud, the Brewers fans got an extremely loud "Let's go Brewers!" chant going during the Arcia at bat (they had a couple other ones, but they were probably half the volume). The twins fans started to try to chant and boo over them at the same time. Then he hit the go ahead home run and the place went nuts! It was so cool. I was totally caught up in the moment. Fun game!
