Yelich got a base hit?  Wow.

Quote from: The Sultan on October 16, 2025, 06:41:38 PMHoly cow Miz. Keep dealing.

So why didn't Miz start this game? Sending a fish like Ashby out there when this stud was locked and loaded makes zero sense. Am I missing something?

Honestly I don't really get it but whatever.

I'd think it makes sense if Ashby hasn't been pitched a ton, was pitching well and the dodgers hadn't seen him twice already. Alas.

Umps missed a perfect strike that led to a walk and that. Inexcusable.

Sweet Jesus!  That can't happen.

Curtains. As I've said, no margin for error(s)

This is why I emphasize focus constantly.  2 outs, totally inexcusable.  Period.

Ughhh.  What a shame.

Been there.  Balky hamstring that suddenly triggers and cramps so bad you are unable to function.  If he is like me, he will get a second round while trying to sleep tonight.  Just by having his leg in the wrong position.

Last I checked you don't swing your bat with your leg

This is likely why they can't hit.

Don't need to see Yelich back in a Brewers uniform, thanks

I'm sure he'll bat cleanup again tomorrow. At this point, I'm just hoping Ashby isn't starting.

At least they didn't leave Miz off the Playoff roster like you thought they should.

These three games have been inordinately upsetting.  I'll admit I jumped on the Brewers' bandwagon, but we haven't seen the best from this team.

9 hits in 3 games.   I empathize.

It was always going to be the offense that was the undoing.  Unfortunately, it's happening in spectacular fashion.  And no one is blameless in that lineup except maybe Chourio.  Truly impressive pants wetting

It was like watching the Tigers.  Taking fastballs, swinging at breaking  pitches out of the strike zone.

Agreed.  Very poor at bats imo.

Gwynn is my favorite hitter of all-time.  Tremendous eye hand coordination.  I guess there aren't guys like that anymore.

They are running into an insane lineup of starting pitching. Smoltz said the Dodgers are a buzzsaw.

Just overmatched and their pesky hitters haven't been able to string together any hits. Yelich looking like me up there hasn't helped.

10 runs for the Dodgers in 3 games is pretty darn impressive by the Brewers pitching.

Excellent points.  You would take 10 runs in 3 games 100/100 times.  But the bats have been an abomination for Milwaukee.
