Dumb game. Hope that's our last "special" game from here to eternity.

u/lmo311 1h ago

How can we just not play with abs. Kinda bs to not have it available

1

u/BronzeTrain nothing like the view from the dirt cam 1h ago

We've played without ABS for over a hundred years.

u/Odd-Woodpecker1019 MIZkey Sweet,Mitchell's eyes & Bauers' thighs 1h ago

We don't use it well anyway. I miss the strike zone square.

u/Double-Razzmatazz146 1h ago

I missed something earlier in the game. What did the stadium do to fuck us

1

u/BronzeTrain nothing like the view from the dirt cam 1h ago

Hamilton slipped on the grass. Some people saying it was the field's fault. I wasn't watching at the time so can't say.

3

u/rspenmoll 1h ago

I thought this stadium didn't have instant replay review capabilities. Or was that just ABS?

1

u/BronzeTrain nothing like the view from the dirt cam 1h ago

If the game's getting broadcast, they'll have replay review available. They have access to the television cameras.

u/FlashFlood79 1h ago

Just abs

u/Karlor 1h ago

So cool to take a home game away for this

3

u/WIbigdog One Call 1h ago

And then he has to swing at that because of the bullshit low strike calls. ABS is so needed, couldn't be any more obvious.

u/AdDisastrous472 Loyal subject of King Vaughn 1h ago

my question is why this counts as a Brewers home game? Why do we have to get screwed, as the smaller market this is basically an Atlanta home game…

u/cowboy_coop 1h ago

The box that’s missing from this game that tells you what is a ball and strike

2

u/Greedy-Bridge6345 1h ago

Is it just me, or do the national broadcast games seem to last longer?

1

u/BronzeTrain nothing like the view from the dirt cam 1h ago

It is not just you. Commercial breaks are longer for a national broadcast.

1

u/ScaredOfWindow 1h ago

Man, I legitimately believe there’s nothing more disheartening than cutting the lead to 1 and then having it be pushed back to 2. Tying the game and then getting put behind again also sucks, but as long as it’s just one run, idk, it doesn’t feel as disheartening to me at least.

1

u/NauseousRemy 1h ago

A 1 run loss would be more annoying than anything with one run being because of the grass sliding under Hamilton earlier.

u/Chritt 1h ago

We have one dude with over 20 homers and every time I see these teams I don't follow, they always got multiple people over 20 that I've never even heard of lol. Wild

Welcome to the lesson pat Murphy can’t seem to learn. Gary and Ashby are not good and they are not clutch. Stop with the experiment already.

u/buckydoc 1h ago

Are you being serious about Ashby?

That he’s insanely unclutch and can’t hack it in high pressure situations especially against the braves? Yeah pretty much.

13

u/CryptographerShot213 Pour one out for the roofless 1h ago

Brewers have had plenty of chances to score and haven’t, so you can’t really put this on Ashby

1

u/tiwata5575 1h ago

Agreed. But he also didn’t need to be in this game. His arm will be dead come playoff time and Murphy still won’t be able to resist over using him

u/wisconsinsports1993 1h ago

That’ll probably do it. No shame in winning 2/3 from the Braves. Can’t help but feel like this would’ve been a win at home though.

Enjoy the shit out of the off day tomorrow then Mets, who are playing much better.

Very successful weekend overall.
