2021-05-23: Brewers (Peralta) at Reds (Castillo) [Brewers win, 9-4 -- Offense shows signs of life; Crew captures series win in Cincinnati]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Caught a break on that one. Clearly out of the zone

 

Ehh, too close to take in that spot.

[RollieTime]

Nice 1, 2, 3 inning for Bettinger to help him regain his confidence.

[folly412]

Bettinger ERA plummets down to 13.50. I'd now trust him over Lindblom in any situation.

[sveumrules]

Yelich guaranteed day off tomorrow.

[yourout]

Okay who had today in the Yelich first home run pool?

[timpep]

What will TLR say when he finds out Yelich homered up 6 on a 3-0 count?

[folly412]

If you had May 23 in the Yelich's first home run pool, you're the big winner!

 

Honorable mention to the single fan who could be heard trying to start an "overrated" chant during the AB.

Lol.... A certain amount of Truth in that.

Welcome back Christian

[yourout]

It's a lot nicer not needing Hader and Williams in a winning effort versus not needing them because you're behind.

[RollieTime]

I love Yeli blasts! He’s baaaaaack!!

[RollieTime]

Bettinger needs to adjust how he holds his glove. You can actually see his hand on the baseball from the outfield camera. You can clearly see his fingers adjust on the ball and see what’s coming. I called the next pitches out loud and knew what was coming.

 

Someone might want to tag McCalvy on Twitter for that and let him know. For real. I don’t have Twitter.

Bettinger says wait just a minute

Ok, maybe they're equally terrible.

[mtrebs]

And now Hader has to warm up… geez

At least Bettinger stinks at a quick pace. Kind of a right-handed Suter.

That’s when he’s in the windup at least.

[markedman5]

A much needed series win

[mtrebs]

And now Hader has to warm up… geez

 

At least he didn’t have to come in. A series win!!! And some offense!

[mtrebs]

Does anyone else think the guy in the Miller Lite commercial that originally picks up Michelob Ultra looks like a (very) poor-man’s Bruno Mars?

[yourout]

A series win so I'm not going to complain one bit about anything else.

[Hopper]

Hiura just hit another homer ……..

 

Anyone know if he has made adjustments to his swing, or is he just that much better than AAA pitching?

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

23-23 and hanging tough. After the SD series, the 35 or so games until the ASB should really tell the tale. Lots of series against teams contenders need to beat. Would like to go 22-13 or so.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Shaw now below .200.

.199.

 

Keep him away from hitting LHP and that would help moderately.

 

Shaw is only ops-ing 677 vs Rh pitchers so he's kinda just bad.

At some point that's going to be another tough decision to make as far as what to do with him if he doesn't turn things around at least a little bit
