The Hey its 2021 now guys MLB thread

[Dish]

Didn't see the game, Dish. What did he do?

Sox are up 4-2 in the 5th, he leaves a struggling Giolito in, with no one warming up. Walks Altuve, Brantley hits a bomb to the warning track for an out, then Giolito walks Bregman. He then brings in Crochet in a terrible spot (not to mention Crochet threw 26 pitches yesterday). Crochet walks Alvarez, then game tying single to Gurriel.

He never uses Michael Kopech the entire game, makes a brutal decision to pinch hit Hernandez for Engel, which rears its ugly head in the outfield later when Garcia gets caught in a spin for a Correa double. He also brings Kimbrel who gets hammered by Tucker for a two run bomb.

The White Sox have all kinds of trouble outside TLR (no extra basehits, tons of leadoff walks to Houston, 1-11 RISP), it was everything wrong with the team, magnified by ten today.

Thanks, Dish ... and sorry for your pain.

Regardless of sport, it sucks as a fan when it feels like the coach or manager of your team is hurting, rather than enhancing, your team's chances of winning.

Steve Greenberg of the Chicago Sun Times did a recent piece on
Tony! Toni! Toné!.  It even has a guest appearance from Uncle Walt and F.O.T.'s.

Does anybody have any ideas as to how I could get the Brewers game streamed today while overseas?  Looks like just trying to stream TBS or Bally Sports Wisconsin won't work.

Gunna have to VPN. It's pretty easy with Nord and cheap.

So I should've brought the work computer instead of the personal computer? Shoot.

A real fan would fly back for the game.

Can you maybe get a free live TV trial on Hulu or Yrube?

Free, free

Yep, I think when you're overseas, a lot of the streaming options crap out.  I remember trying to stream on watchespn or fsgo or something overseas, and even though i had all the requisite subscriptions, it wouldn't let me stream outside the country.  So I think tricking the apps/subscriptions into thinking you're somewhere else is your only option.

There are plenty of good VPNs with trial free subscriptions or the like

Not missing much. Brewers offense MIA again.

Don't bother. Suckin' major ass, hey?

[The Sultan]

Those last three innings were maddening. Luke Maile?

[MU82]

When you score 2 runs in 2 games, you're fortunate to be 1-1 in the series.

As usual, you're always overjoyed when MU, Brewers, Packers, Bucks lose. Gotta be the worst fan on Scoop.

Anderson is a very good young pitcher (I would even say a future Cy Young'er if he stays healthy), but you can't throw any better than Morton and Fried the 1st two games.

I'm very happy where the Brewers are at after facing those 2 guys.

The problem wasn't those two guys. The problem was they had the tying run get to the plate in three straight innings against their bullpen and they went 0-6 and hit into a double play.

[ZiggysFryBoy]

How long is Brian Anderson under contract with the brewers/ballys?

Man, he calls a good game.

I believe he just re-upped and basically said he's planning to be here for his career.

He is fantastic.

Congrats, then!

I feel that we all experienced that in the past 7 years.
