The Brewers have won 8 of 10
"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

Ho hum, just another extra innings win by our terrible manager who doesn't understand how to use his best relief pitcher.

Not good enough!

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Since the ball bounced over the wall, does he get credit for the double?

 

I think he would if he had run to second, but I don’t think he did.

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

I actually don’t quite understand why he doesn’t get credited a double there. No way Narvaez touched home before that ball bounced over the fence. I’d think he would still get the auto 2 bases and the run scores.

 

He did never touch second...wonder if he would have went to second he would have gotten the double.

Home runs aren't valid if the runner misses a base, I don't know why a ground rule double would be any different.

Brewers official scorekeeper said if Urias would’ve touched second base it would’ve been a double.

 

Via Adam McCalvy: It's a single, per longtime official scorer Tim O'Driscoll. Urías would have had to step on second to get the double, even though the ball bounced over the wall.

Not just “at Night” anymore.
