Best Hitter Only We Know About

Brewer batting order for tonight vs. Pirates. 

Colin Rea with a 3 - 0 record and a 3.29 ERA pitches for Crew.

Crew down 3-0 top of the 3rd, no outs. Not looking good at this point.

Brewer line up tonight.  Joe Ross pitching.

Hoskins headed to 10 day IL.  I wonder if they will call up Black again?

No on Black. Recalled Owen Miller.

0-0 going into the bottom of the 2nd. Get some runs guys.

Crew now leads 3-0 in bottom of 2nd, 1 out 2 on base

Now 4-0, 2 outs but runners still on base. Yet the inning is now over.

Now Crew 4-2 as we go into the bottom of the 5th.

Bryan Hudson doing a great job. 6 up   6 down over 2 innings.

Yelich staying hot, 2 for 4 tonight.  In fact all Brewer starters have a hit except Bauers.   Still 4 - 2.

Peguero    3 up   3 down in the 8th.

I could be wrong, but I cannot remember a better defensive Brewers team than this one.

Think they might get another golden glove winner this year?

Only 2 winners in the last 42 years.

I wish MLB blackout rules were not so stupid so I could watch a few games.

And I actually like listening to games, it is how I grew up a Brewer fan, listening while milking cows and box scores when the paper came in the afternoon. 

I agree on the blackout rules.  I am on FUBO TV and 95% of the time the channels MLB offers the game is blacked out.

I also grew up listening to the Brewers on the radio while working on the farm or as I went to bed at night.

Same here. We'd listen to the pregame while milking in the early evening and maybe get the first couple of innings when we were finishing up. We'd go to the house and listen to the rest of the game.

It felt like it was about 110 degrees in the barn with 65 Holsteins when it was 90 degrees outside. Dripping sweat from the heat and humidity and listening to Bob Uecker. Never thought I'd miss those days, but I sometimes do.

Game 3, 0-0 top of the 2nd, Gasser pitching for the Crew

Bottom of the 3rd Contreras hits 3 run homer putting Crew up 3-1, still batting with 1 out.

Now 3 - 1 Brewers on a Contreras 3 run homer.   Boy is he hot or what.  Still batting bottom of 3rd.

That one by Ccontreras is still going

and another one for Sanchezzzzzzzzzz,  holy molly

Sanchez homers now 5-1, still only 1 out in the 3rd.

Now 5 - 1 on Sanchez homer. End of 3.

You're too fast D D.

Sal Frelick heating up. Another homer!

Yep, Crew now 6-1, still batting in the 4rth, 1 on 2 outs

Ortiz homers in the 5th, now 7-1, still batting, 2 outs.

Now 10-1 in the 6th as the home run fest continues as Chourio hits one. Still batting in the 6th , no outs, guys on 1st and 3rd

Signing off, gotta go run some errands as this game is well in hand.

Contreras a double away from the cycle.

Sal Frelick has had a nice couple of days.

I think they have a day off, then on the road to Houston

Right you are D D. Then on to Miami for three and then Boston and and the Big Green Monster for 3.   Finally home again on May 27th  for 4 games when traitor Craig Counsell returns to boos from Milwaukee  fans.

Interesting factoid: Gasser is the first ever Brewers starting pitcher to win his first 2 games.
