If Brewers want to beat the Bums at Dodger Stadium, they need to compile more than one hit....Buehler has given up only one hit through his 3 innings.
Interesting Stat- Bums Win Pvtg% Home .549 Away. .580 Brewers Home. .630 Away. .549 In other words the Brewers are as good on the road as the Bums are at home. That being said the Dodgers have met their match, and if they lose this game which I will not be surprised if I do, didn't stick a fork in them. Hell let's just stick a fork in them anyway just for shits and grins....
Christian Yelich is more fired up and more thrilled to be playing in Dodger Stadium than the Bums are themselves... Go Brewers....
Chacin is pitching pitch for pitch with Buehler. Sparkling defense helps the cause. Both hurlers have given up two hits apiece.
Dodger 6th Turner reaches 2B on a Moustakas throwing error & one out. Chacin who pitched very well, gave up 3 hits & 0 runs, is being taken out for Knebel. Moustakas made gem for second out. Dodgers do not score. After 6 it’s 2-0 Brewers.
Kratz, Milwaukee catcher, doubled down left field line with one out. Arcia doubles Brewers’ lead with opposite field HR. 4-0 Brewers. Good to see Kratz having his moments in playoffs. 38 years old and having a ball.
It's impossible to get behind any Dave Roberts led team, impossible... any member of the 004 Red-sux isn't a friend of mine. Screw Millaaar 2. Bellinger is not and has never been a natural OF'r. Pederson would of made the catch that Bellinger looked lost trying to make. A wonder Bellinger didn't imbed himself. BTW- the wind never blows in Chavez Ravine, not like Smoltz would like one to think. In old Candlestick, Yeah the ball blew in circles, or a deep deep fly ball boomeranged back to the INF. A 400 ft putout to the Infield. He's a shitty 1st Baseman at best. A big mistake putting an clumsy ape where he has no business being. He'd be better off in the AL imo. Joc Pederson is a helluva defensive gazelle CF glove. He came on the scene with a flash glove, made a highlight film of catches; and swung for the fences. The Bums tolerated his high K, swing for the fences Offense for his stellar CF'r defense.
And that’s why I love this guy Yelich! He bunts down 3B line.....one of the little things that is key.
Braun shut the f*** up...when he saw Yelich was going to be thrown out at 2B on his would-be single turned into a fielders choice Like Braun never makes mistakes!
