Late start as game begins at 8:40 CT, no TV. The Crew has had some difficulty with bottom dwellers as of late. Lets hope they get things turned around and start another winning streak.
I'm sure Ammo will have the line up for us later today, but here's the pitcher comparison:
| Player | W-L | ERA | WHIP | IP | H | K | BB | HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4-8 | 4.78 | 1.37 | 124.1 | 130 | 117 | 40 | 23 | |
| 10-8 | 4.15 | 1.18 | 141.0 | 129 | 110 | 37 | 19 |

No TV?
I think he means other than Bally or MLB which would be blacked out for us anyway. It is a free MLB weekend but I'm pretty sure we would be blacked out by those assholes.
Perkins back, Black sent back to Nashville. Still waiting on the line up.
Perkins back in the line up, Turang and Mitchell get a night off too. Except for the lefty Frelick and the switch hitter Perkins an all righty line up. ESPN gives the Brewers a 55% chance of winning.
From Brewers.com on each team's potential Sept. call up:
Brewers: Jacob Misiorowski, RHP (No. 3/MLB No. 66)
Many evaluators across the game have long believed Misiorowski could be a huge weapon out of the bullpen, and lo and behold, once the righty debuted with Triple-A Nashville on Aug. 3, he began pitching in shorter stints. Using his upper-90s fastball, low-90s cutter/slider and mid-80s curveball, Milwaukee’s top pitching prospect has tossed four straight scoreless (and walkless) appearances for the Sounds, totaling 7⅔ innings. With the Crew in the midst of a potentially special season, Misiorowski’s dynamic stuff might be too good to leave in the Minors.

It's free tonight on MLB.com.
Chourio is good.

Civale gets staked to a 7-1 lead and proceeds to melt down in the bottom of the 4th.
Single-single-walk followed by another walk with the bases loaded.
Payamps, you moron. What the fuck were you doing making that throw? There’s like a small country’s worth of foul territory first base side. Just eat it, and leave the runner on first.
Frelick bailed your ass out.
Sanchez with the bases loaded triple. Of all the improbable things that could happen tonight. 🤣
Look at the big guy rumble!
Now THAT'S how you piss pound a bottom dweller!
Crew leading 5-4 after 7
Crew gets 1 more in the 8th, now 6-4
Brewers add 1 more in 9th, 7-4, still batting, no outs, 2 on
Now bases loaded, still no outs
Edit, now 9-4, 2 on, one out
Crew goes into the bottom of 9th leading 9-4, just need 3 outs to secure the series win.
Wilson making me nervous. Tying run in the on deck circle. Adames throws out the guy running to first! 9-5 Crew wins. Going for the sweep, tomorrow!
Brewers make it interesting in the 9th, but go on to win 9-5. Going for the sweep tomorrow
I guess I'm talking to myself, but here's an interesting factoid from the JSO:
"With a 9-5 win over the Oakland Athletics on Saturday afternoon at the Oakland Coliseum, the Brewers picked a 12th consecutive win over AL clubs and improved to a MLB-best 31-14 in interleague play."
Going for the sweep!!! And if the Phillies lose Brewers back to the #2 seed. Can Sanchez get his 2nd career triple?
Not a triple but a Sanchez homer after a Frelick single gives the Brewers a 2 - 0 lead. Oakland getting ready to bat in the 2nd.
Montas falling apart in the 4th, has bases loaded and no outs on 3 consecutive singles.
Edit: now he walked in a run, currently 2-1 Crew, now 2-2 after he gives up another single, bases still loaded and no outs, this does not look good
And a sac fly gets 1 out but now 3-2 A's
And another sac fly makes it 4-2, but inning now over
As an aside, Brewers call up Aaron Ashby from Triple A today, with Mears going on the IL:
Mighty cold Crew bats going into the 7th, only 2 hits, Frelick and the Sanchez HR. The bats better heat up quick or they will lose this game.
Edit, and just as I type that Adames with a HR, now 4-3 A's
And Ashby relieves Montas in the 7th.
Brewers get one on in the 7th, but Mitchell gets thrown out trying to steal the second to end the inning.
Aaron Ashby in for his first big league innings in a long time (after having an 8.04 ERA in Triple A).
Why is Ashby back up in a pennant race?

And then Ashby looks really good (hitting 98.7 mph) after walking the first guy.
Read the JSO article I linked, Ashby brought back for a relief role.
Game over, 4 - 3 loss. Ashby struggled badly to the first couple of batters but once he settled down he looked great.
Didn't get the sweep, but if the As get to Mason Miller ahead to close it out you aren't doing much. The guy hit 102 on the radar gun several times in the 9th.
Crew gets Monday off then a short home stand vs the Giants starting Tuesday. After which they travel to Cincinnati.
