2019-09-18: Padres (Lamet) at Brewers (Houser) [Brewers lose, 2-1]

[Bulldogboy]

And now the Junior Guerra show.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Now they get the shoddy defense. Terrific.

[willie key]

Cain loves a weak ground out to second

[shanedog19]

So many bunts!

[Ennder]

That ball called a strike derailed that AB completely. He felt he had to swing at those next two pitches which were also balls. Tough job being an ump but that is sad.

 

So a ball that was called a strike (borderline, actually a strike on MLB.com) caused him to swing at two pitches in the dirt? Lol.....

 

On another note correct call. Sucks, but correct.

 

 

Yes of course it does. Sorry I watched the pitch and saw the display on the screen, it was low. It was borderline which is why I said tough to be an ump but it was a ball. The next pitch they went even lower which is a smart thing to do and he checked his swing because in his head he is thinking about the fact they are calling the low strike. The final pitch is downright in the dirt but again he swings at that low pitch to protect himself like a rookie tends to do. Everything in that pitch sequence changed the moment they called the low pitch a strike. This is pitch sequencing 101 here.

[TURBO]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[HarveysWBs]

Not sure what's garbage? The call is correct.

 

Yes, it was the correct call. Pretty obvious actually.

 

The live play and the first few replays did not provide a good look at what happened. They finally got a replay that showed the kick and it became clear. Pretty silly that the home plate ump flat missed it in real time when he was literally right on top of the play...

[willie key]

Guerra is my least favorite pitcher to watch. I don’t know why. He just is

 

I hate when he comes in. It’s like chaos every inning he pitches

[TURBO]

They aren't boooing the umps call Rock, they are booing the punk.

 

Drink.

That was just a rookie struggling all game swinging at more junk like he has done a lot so far this year.

 

Not sure if the TV graphic was different, but just skimmed the zone on MLB.com. Can’t say I was paying attention on the TV though.

Losing potentially on a guy's only big league homer sucks big time.

 

Not so much that it was the guys first HR. More the fact that Hauser throws a 0-2 pitch right down the heart of the plate. Seems like Brewer pitchers do that way too often on 0-2 and 1-2 counts

[PinaMadness]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I LOLed looking at Padre fans on Twitter calling Brewers fans racist for booing Machado.

[homer]

Drink.

 

It's no fun if you do it.

[Ennder]

They didn't replay them unfortunately but I think that first check swing by Manny was a strike and the second one was a makeup call that should have been a ball.

[adambr2]

Huge to keep them off the board there.

[HarveysWBs]

Guerra is so clutch

[TURBO]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Seems about right...

[yourout]

Houdini is in the building.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Nice work by Guerra to wiggle off the hook.

[PinaMadness]

Guerra is so clutch

I wish he'd stop putting himself in situations where he has to be clutch.

[MrTPlush]

Guerra is so clutch

 

Really wasn’t a bad inning either. Kinda got screwed by his infielder on the bunt. Easy to say throw it a little harder, but then our little league infielder misses it at first and the run is probably scoring...making a real big mess.

 

Crazy to really blame Guerra for that mess.

[yourout]

Padres are 0 for 5 with RISP

Brewers are 0 for 4.

[markedman5]

Reds just took 2-1 lead

[shanedog19]

Come on boys need a rally!!

You can't say that here. True but you can't say that here.
