2020-09-02: Tigers (Turnbull) at Brewers (Houser) [Brewers win, 8-5 -- Crew overcomes early 4-0 deficit]

[Devinep]

Wow a team moving runners over. I didn't know that was allowed.

I doubt that was intentional. Very few teams play anything close to small ball these days.

 

I wish the Brewers would try small ball again. I know statistics say otherwise, but the modern swing-for-the fences approach isn’t going to cut it for this team. Need to do something different.

 

Plus 3TO baseball is waaaayyyy less interesting to watch

Bases loaded time for Narvaez to come through.

[Eye Black]

Schreiber’s first 5 pitches (to Garcia) were all outside of the strike zone.

This pitcher stinks

This pitcher stinks

Tigers should have traded for Phelps at the deadline!

[brewers888]

We finally got a break with a cheap hit.

We finally got a break with a cheap hit.

 

And then end the inning on a bonehead play on the bases.

My main gripe with 3TO baseball is that it makes it too easy on the defense. The same was true when Ken Macha was manager. Pitcher doesn't have to worry about baserunners.

Yelich looked like he lost that one in the sun.

Anyone else watching the pigeon race on the warning track behind home plate? Or is that just me?

Yes, I was fascinated with them. Must be RALLY PIGEONS brought in for Craigtember!

I was watching in envy. None of us can go to the ballpark but they just mosey on in like it's no big deal, as pigeons are wont to do.

[markedman5]

Why are the Tigers trying to hit the edges against our lineup?

 

Any ideas?

[jason21nl]

Smoak makes Arcia look like a sprinter

[markedman5]

“ Smoak doesn’t have that great of speed”

 

Understatement of the century

[Oxy]

pinch run for Smoak plz

[MrTPlush]

0-2 strike to Sogard...why? Why even have it anywhere near the strike zone?

[rickh150]

And Sogard comes thru late again....

I was actually in Milwaukee last weekend with the Brewers playing at home... I drove by the stadium longingly...

[MrTPlush]

Gives up the go-ahead run on a 0-2 strike and then hits Arcia on a 3-2 pitch.

 

Not a good day on the mound for that guy.

[MrTPlush]

....dang

[markedman5]

9 walks and 2 hbps.........so many chances to blow this one open

[brewers888]

This ump is a clown

[CheezWizHed]

I came late to this game and heard someone mentioned "Turnbull", but I misheard it and had a major flash back...
