2021-06-25 (Re-Opening Day): Rockies (Gray) at Brewers (Burnes) [Brewers win, 5-4 in 11 innings -- Adames 2-run HR in 9th ties it; Hiura sac fly walks it off in extras]

I have a bad feeling about this now.

 

Williams has enough trouble pitching clean innings when there isn’t a runner on second to start, and the Brewers will be heading into the bottom of their order with the speedy Pina as the gift runner.

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

Take your .300 hitter to bat a .130 hitter just because of platoon favorability? 1 man left on bench to use.

Sigh start with runner on 2nd. End inning still on 2nd.

It's really .190 versus lefties and .156 versus lefties. But your point is still valid, there isn't any real upside going to Pina.

This. Narvaez has been one of(the most) consistent hitters this year and you put him down for Pina? Odd.

I know a lot of people are opposed to the new extra innings rule, and I think that’s totally valid, but imagine how long this game might last if it wasn’t in place.
Not just “at Night” anymore.

If I were Bud Black I would be walking Adames with a good probability of two Ks behind him.

 

Maybe JBJ can come up with another piece of extra inning magic.

Yeah, reopening day already turning into reopening night. I still don't like the rule but I might get a little more behind it if they started with the runner on first so at least you could turn a DP.

I know it’s easier said than done but here’s where I would just like to see Bradley look for something away and bloop it over the infield.
