2021-08-26: Reds (Gray) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers lose, 5-1]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Castellanos can go ahead and sign with an AL team this offseason too, while we're at it. Won't be sad to potentially see him gone.

I get a sense Yelich doesn’t like to do the claws thing

Eh. He's having a season that's well below his standards, and they're losing 5-1.

I get the sense he’s “too cool” to do it. He doesn’t get all that jacked up when something great happens. Maybe it’s just the way he’s wired.

What is the origin of the "claws thing" anyways? "You're a Monster"?

[tmwiese55]

Yea I wouldn't say that 'too cool' as in a smug type way, he just seems like a shy, quiet, or naturally introverted type person to me. From the obviously limited insight we have to his personality.

Pina started it, I think it's supposed to be tiger claws or something like that.

Yeah I didn’t mean too cool in a negative way…I just don’t think he’s wired that way. Without going down too much of a rabbit hole, I feel that Latino players are much more boisterous. Except for Suter who is just a nut

[yfinn6]

Never heard Ueck this animated.

[homer]

uh, that was no tag

 

edit: out of the baseline? sheesh

[PinaMadness]

The umpires taking no chances and making sure Cincinnati wins this game.

[Nola Beery]

I guess the umps had to squeeze in at least one ridiculous call.

[SeaBass]

What a garbage, unnecessary call by the umpire. Seriously blue? You're going to end the game on that call?

[owbc]

Ump wanted to go home early I guess

[jason21nl]

Unfortunately I’m watching Paw Patrol can someone fill me in

[PinaMadness]

And of course it was Fairchild, because why not?

[DuWayne Steurer]

Soft line-out and runner was going back to the base and he was .......maybe half a step out of the baseline (if that) and blue called him out for running out of the baseline to end the game.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Never heard Ueck this animated.

 

He was pretty heated, lol.

[oldguy]

Rowdy better start hitting again or its back to the wrestling mats for him.

[SeaBass]

I just watched it again, it was an awful call. I think the rule is the runner has to be within arms reach of the baseline or able to touch the bag and Peterson definitely was. The umpire was not in a position to make that call responsibly.

 

All that said, odds are the Brewers don't win anyway but ending the game that way is bad form.

Rowdy had a nice little hot streak but in the end, he is who he is. Just a guy.

[tmwiese55]

I still disagree with the call. But I guess I can see a logic that he kind got back to the base on the 1B side of the bag. Trying to find a jusification, I can see that but still disagree. I guess at least it's in a non close game, so it was still unlikely to matter.

I believe it’s 3 feet from base path. On either side

I guess so....

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Losing isn't fun.

 

On the other hand, I'll take a series win against the Reds and Hoby Milner pitching two clean innings. Saves the pen for another day.
