2021-04-10: Brewers (Houser) at Cardinals (Martinez) [Brewers win, 9-5 -- Hauser keeps Cards scoreless over 5 IP; Crew tallies 13 hits]

[pacopete4]

Trade Hiura.

[markedman5]

Just remember......anyone can play first.....he will be fine

[Eye Black]

Unfortunately Hiura could be on his way to becoming a career DH. Sigh...

[brewers888]

Hiura sucks.

[MrTPlush]

Unfortunately Hiura is probably on his way to becoming a career DH. Sigh...

 

DHs know how to hit, dude better start hitting if he even wants to be an MLB player period.

[Sir Illo]

Guess Hiura found a way to avoid making another awful throw.

[BuckyBrewer61]

I’m hard pressed to think of a stretch of a worse baseball by a Brewer than Keston Hiura is currently having.

[folly412]

I'd ask when the DH is coming, but our pitchers have as many hits as Hiura this year.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

That is just bad D. Nothing to do with the position switch. Should be able to field a ground ball.

[stoutdude04]

I went to get a snack for my daughter. What happened on the Hiura play?

[markedman5]

Well that was a break

[rickh150]

Gotta consider taking Hijra out late for defensive replacement...

[markedman5]

Ground ball hit right at him.....ended up in right field corner.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Thought it hit the bag in live action...lucky there.

 

Alright, tack on.

[Simba2020]

I suppose I've seen it sometime, but can't remember a guy on third getting hit with a ball in fair territory (assuming it was).

[Eye Black]

Somewhat similar to the Bill Buckner error in the World Series, although Buckner had much better fielding technique on his attempt.

Ground ball to first and he was either anticipating a bounce that never came or was looking way to far ahead and thinking of turning a double play. Basically he took a step to his left and bent over a bit and the ball went right under his glove.

Ground ball Ole'!

If a guy has to be taken out in the 6th inning.....a first baseman no less.....he shouldn’t really be on your roster.

[rickh150]

Well that was a break

 

How does one jump back into fair play and get hit by ball? Really think the ball was hit by player in foul area... close.

[Eye Black]

Gotta consider taking Hijra out late for defensive replacement...

Might be the first time in his career Daniel Vogelbach could be considered a defensive replacement.

[Simba2020]

Hiura is a train wreck on defense whether it is fielding or throwing. Changing positions and all the time in the world will undoubtedly never change that.

[rickh150]

Well, he is.... and with a lead late, defensive liabilities shouldn’t be in.

[BruisedCrew]

A couple more swings like that and Bradley might get his average into triple digits.

 

It’s a battle to see who will get there first, Bradley or Hiura.

[CheezWizHed]

He was clearly standing in foul territory... I'm assuming the ump felt that the ball was in fair territory when it hit him (i.e. body part leaning into fair ground)?
