Kick Some Astros series thread

I feel good about this series. Taking 2 of 3.

Your hubris knows no bounds.

S eep.

Hard to win when the ace is giving up 4 homers.

Weep.

Down three starters now, with Miley out for God knows how long, we really need Corbin Burnes to pitch better than this.

That’s in my memo to Counsell.

He's gone in about 8 weeks.

I didn't say who was taking 2 of 3.   

Wiemer with a 430 foot homer and Owen Miller steals 2nd, Astros throw the ball into center and Miller scores all the way from 2nd.   2-0 Brewers  middle of 8th.

Colin Rae gave the Brewers exactly what they needed tonight. Kudos to him and  the bullpen if this holds.

4-0 now!!!!

Owen Miller Home Run ! 6-0 Crew.

Anderson with a 2out double scoring Winker and Taylor.  And the GREAT Owen Miller follows with 2 run homer to left. Now 6-0 Brewers still batting in the 8th.   

Love this 8th inning..from nail biter to feeling pretty good. Williams can sit.

Suck it, cheaters!

You better be right.

When the All-Star voting starts I'm voting for Owen Miller.

Heck, when presidential primary elections comes around, I’m voting for Owen Miller.

Counsell agrees, he has Miller batting clean-up today.   First pitch 12:10

Adames with a 2 run homer after a Yelich double.      2-0 Crew after 1.

yep, pretty good start, those 7 pitch innings by Houser are great.

Miller's got a pretty swing.

Solo HR in the 7th, Crew up 3 - 0

Now Anderson hits one out in the 7th.  4 - 0

The downside to the 2nd HR is that Cousins comes in the game instead of the A team. I don't have much confidence in this guy.

Milner to close out the 9th.  3 more outs, let go!!

I will never doubt you again , ammo.

Your concerns over my hubris was overblown.   

So Burnes gets shelled and Rea and Houser start games that both end in shutout wins?

I think the Brewers have a record about 24-4 when they score 4 runs or more. Getting beat by scores like 18-1 and 12-2 helps skew that stat. LOL.

Not to mention the Astros had been shutout once all year. The Brewers do it back to back with 2 guys that even weren't in the rotation at the start of the year.

Great.

Now you have hubris about your hubris.

I love shutting the Astros out in back to back games.

You have to give this team a lot of credit. So many injuries, and still they keep fighting.

This team always finds ways to keep focused and bounce back after having a bad game or series. Great series win and to get consecutive shutouts doing it. Can't wait till some of the guys on the injured list get back. Got a 4 game set vs the Giants coming up, let's keep this rolling.
