    Bellinger finally got a hit! JT comes through in the clutch, and Barnes with a solid at bat to take a walk for a run.

    Baez killed it. Jensen looks like he’s back in form. Gonna be a wild series!

    First game I get to see of this series. Turn it on to see us down 1-0 but just see Puig get the double to put 2 RISP for Grandal to try to bring em in.

    grandal k's... never put the ball in play. What does that do? They walk Keke to get to bueller. And a K leaves the bases loaded.

    Grandal has been putrid. Should play barnes instead.

    And Manny goes bonehead on the Bellinger grounder and gets us 2 outs on the interference.

    These guys are making life easy for the Brewers

    This ump has been giving Chacin a bigger strike zone. Crap.

    and there we go... We do nothing.. Now it looks like Bueller pitched a bad game giving up 4 runs. Not even the case. He is being Kershaw'ed from years before. Great pitching and no support.

    Two losses, two games given away by bad energy, bad at-bats, and oddly losing the starting pitching battle.

    They need the win tonight and they need to steal the win tomorrow too with Kershaw on the mound. I don't want to go back to Milwaukee down 3-2 with Ryu and Buehler on the mound.

    This team is just too haunted. I'm not sure there's a Kobe on the team and by that I mean a guy unfazed by pressure. Turner is the closest, but I'm not sure he's talented enough. If you'd put Turner in Bellinger's body we might have it.

    Also Grandal could possibly be single-handedly costing us this series. Just unbelievable.

    I honestly don't think they are really winning the pitching battle. Yea Kershaw got beat up but we are literally "giving" them runs. They have two wins that can honestly be attributed to our catcher and not being smart. Errors and hitting with RISP has cost us 2 games. We might be snake bitten or cursed but we have all the weapons for real.

    Also that last K was ridiculous. Ump had two different strike zones. The announcers pointed it out a couple times in the game. Still it is on us to hit the damn ball. Grandal need to be benched for real though. He gave up a base (cost a run too I think) on a ball that hit him in the glove. He lost his confidence somewhere and Roberts doesn't have time to wait for him to figure it out. Brewers are trying to cut our throats

    Yeah, the ump was giving Chacin a pretty generous strike zone. I noticed constantly he was giving a wider strike than what Buehler was getting.

    Grandal needs to sit, period. If he's having a bad series, then so be it, we can't let it affect the games like it did with Yu last year. We won with Barnes in the lineup. Maybe next series, but he's just lost his confidence and now is NOT the time to get it back.

    This team needs to be smarter hitting and base running. Bellinger should have scored on Puig's double the way Yaelich did. Manny didn't need to interfere with the 2B on those turns.

    Bats needs to wake up, clean up the errors, and get their head back in this series because the Brewers have all the momentum right now.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we put up double-digit runs tonight. Too many hitters to have so many come up short in big situations.

    We start the right way... Lets get in and give the fans some souvenirs
