Brewers Are Embarrassed, Fan Reacts To Elimination

Brewers Are Embarrassed, Fan Reacts To Elimination

Welcome back to good sports for you where we are talking about good sports for you. And today, unfortunately for me, it is not good sports for me is what I will say. But before we hop into it, I want to remind you to like, comment, subscribe while we talk about the downfall of the Milwaukee Brewers and what the heck happened to the squad in the NLCS versus the Dodgers. For my longtime viewers, you can see I’m in a different setup. Um, I had to go home uh for some reasons, but I’m chilling for a bit for right now and I’ll be back to my normal setup in a few weeks, but just for a couple videos in order to keep coming them out, I’ll have to have be rocking with this. But, you know, we got a couple of bobs up here. We got Pat and we got Yelich. So, that’s that. So, with this Brewers team, it was a team of rambunctious individuals. I’ll say that. And I I’m a lifelong Brewers fan. I’ve been a Brewers fan my whole entire life. And it’s it’s a never- ending string of disappointments. We’ve won four playoff series in the history of my LA the history of the team period and this team felt different and it’s frustrating that we lost obviously you there are obvious flaws. The hitting was dreadful. I mean we’re going to go through it but the hitting was the biggest biggest concern. The Dodgers pitching their starting pitching was simply too much for us. And what I talked about in my playoff preview for this series is I talked about how the Dodgers starting pitching, we the Brewers needed to get through them. And if you can get them out of the game at a reasonable time, the bullpen is their weak spot. Well, guess what? That was true. It was true. Their bullpen was their weakest spot. They almost lost them multiple games. Blake Snell, he almost lost the game because their bullpen almost blew it in game one. like there were so many chances and the team just kept on falling short and it starts with the hitting. I want to highlight the good things that happened first though. Caleb Durban, this kid who went went to a D3 like almost Ivy League school who’s this short little dude was able to have a fantastic series. He had a 972 OPS. Jackson Churio, again, a kid, he’s a child. He did the one of the best of any of our starters. He had a 655 OPS, which is embarrassing that I’m saying he was one of the better players. Jake Bowers was one of the better players seen at a 555 OPS. A 555. And you’re saying he’s a hot bat? Are you serious right now? It was a joke. It was an absolute joke. And then you look at the stars and that’s where the team really fell apart. William Contrarus didn’t have a hit until game four and he batted 143 on the series with a 393 OPS and it only gets worse. Yelich Yelich this guy MVP winner Yelich MVP winner Yelich second in MVP the face of the franchise the largest contract in the history of the organization and he batted 071 with a 259 OPS. This isn’t an average. It’s not on base percentage. That’s not even your slugging. That That is your OPS 259. He He hasn’t had a RBI in the playoffs since 2018. And it’s not like this team hasn’t been there. They’ve been there every single year and he hasn’t done anything. And he’s the face of the franchise. He’s the face of the team. And it’s and it’s not even like he had competitive at bats. He worked the count. He looked silly in every single game. It was an embarrassment. Bryce Terra, a secondary star, a potential all-star. He could have been easily this year. He was hitting so hot. He had the home run against the Cubs that like helped propel us there. He batted 067 with a 192 OPS. Andrew Vaughn, King Vaughn, the guy that I talked about in the past, one of my first videos, was how was how he came out of nowhere and he was so good. helped bring this team to the winning streak and everything like that. He didn’t have a single hit all series long. He had a 77 OPS for your starting first baseman. Are you joking? And then you had your other guys, the guys that you’re like, “Hey, if they get some hits, you’d love that.” Joe Ortiz didn’t get a hit. 143 OPS. Sal Freelick 071 average, 142 OPS. They batted 118 as a team. That’s literally the worst ever. Like one of the worst ever. I saw a stat. It was like there hasn’t been a team that’s hit worse in a seven game series than the Milwaukee Brewers. And it’s it’s all credit to the Dodgers pitching staff. Blake Snell was untouchable in the first game. The Brewers had a chance though in that first game, which which really says something about the pitching in the team. Blake Snell pitched eight scoreless innings and the team almost came back. They were a hit batter short of tying it and Bryce Trang moved out of the way, which I don’t fault him for at all. I want to get that abundantly clear. I don’t fault someone for moving out of the way of a ball that’s coming at you at 90 mph that’s going for your kneecaps. It’s It’s fine. He’s a kid. What I will fault him for is then swinging at a ball that’s 5t of 5 in above the strike zone. You can fault him for that. Yamamoto game two Jackson Churiel first pitch home run that’s all he gave up a complete game three Tyler Glassnell five and two/3 innings one run though we needed to work the counts better Snell had a low pitch count he could have gone nine easy Yamamoto had a low pitch count through the whole entire game glass now you got the count up a little bit but then you lost to the bullpen and then game four I mean we saw the greatest single game ever by a player. Show Otani had quite literally the best game anyone has ever seen in the history of the sport. Six innings pitched, no runs, 10 strikeouts, and he hit three home runs. I’ve never seen a single player win a game before. And he did single-handedly. He did it all himself. He could have he could have pitched longer if they needed him to. And he hit three home runs, including maybe the longest home run I’ve ever seen live. Almost 470 ft. He cleared the pavilion in Dodgers Stadium. And I feel bad for the pitching for the Brewers because they did good. Jacob Miserowski, again, a kid, he pitched well in five innings. He had an RA of 180. Jared Kanik, four innings pitched, no runs allowed. Freddy Peralta, he he got roughed up a little bit. Five and two/3s inning, three runs allowed. Chad Patrick, two runs over four and one/3s innings. Abner, the guy who was fantastic in the NLDS, he got roughed up and he had a brutal air where he threw to first. And why are you throwing to first with two outs? Just focus on the batter. It’s the pitching was good, which is good. Which is good, which is great. One run is each game is humiliating. the team got embarrassed by the Dodgers and it’s like I’m upset because I expected more from some of our players from Yelich specifically and and I’m and I’m hurt because I’m embarrassed. I went on my channel and I hyped up my team and I said I think that we can take it to seven and I think that we can win in seven. I’ve never been more wrong about a take in my life. And I should have known. I should have known that you can’t beat a team that has Mookie Bets, Freddy Freeman, Show Otani, Tay Oscar Hernandez, and Will Smith. Cuz you can you can say Will Smith wasn’t looking great. Show Otani wasn’t looking great against the Phillies. Against the Phillies, but you know, these are a different brand of players. They’re not going to stay down. Show Otani is not going to be bad for two straight series. He’s not. And it’s upsetting because they pitched him well in the first two games and then the third he started to heat up a little bit but even so he didn’t look great. He looked foolish in some of those at bats. He was swinging at pitches that were way out of the zone. Like Robert Gasser had his number for Pete’s sake. And then and then in the last game you needed to win and he does what he does and he hit three home runs. I’ve never been more humiliated as a Brewers fan. and and it’s like if we won one then I’m fans we grabbed one but to get swept in such an embarrassing fashion. They’re a great team. They’re maybe the best team ever constructed. Show Otani is the best player ever. Ever. And there’s no argument anymore. Well, Barry Bonds this, Barry Bonds that. He never struck out 10 batters over six innings and hit three home runs in one game. Show Otani is the greatest player to ever live. I’ve been saying it the whole entire time. He’s the best to ever live and will be the best to ever live. I’m saying it. I don’t care. He’s the best to ever play and will ever play this game. And of course, you can’t keep him down. And it was foolish of me to think that we could. It was a joke of a series. It was a joke of a game by the Milwaukee Brewers. I’m humiliated. I’m embarrassed. And I feel bad for Caleb Durban and Jacob Miserowski and Jackson Cheurio. Jackson Turio was playing through injury the whole entire time and we couldn’t do anything. like he hit a home run against Yamamoto and that’s all we could do that game. He got hurt in game three. He got a cramp in his leg and he came out in game four and he still got hits. Yelich couldn’t do that. Terra couldn’t do that. Andrew Vaughn couldn’t do that. Sal Freelick couldn’t do it. Joey Ortiz couldn’t do it. Cheerio is a kid and he’s going out and fighting every day. And Caleb Durban, this rookie from Washington University, a D3 school, he’s this little pitbull. And he played so well in game three, a game where we had a chance the entire time, double, triple, stolen base, walks, he was doing everything he could, making good defensive plays, and we couldn’t do anything. runners left in scoring position, not taking advantage, not working counts. That’s the one thing I asked us to do. Work the count so the starting pitching can get out. And it we couldn’t do it. And as a Brewers fan, it sucks. It sucks cuz I know we’ll be back. I really do because this is a young, talented team. And I get that. Brandon Woodruff was hurt and that was brutal and I don’t think people are going to talk about that enough. And would it have mattered? Probably not. Probably not. We maybe would have gotten a game. Maybe. And the starting pitching, we weren’t getting anything. It was Freddy and that was our only starting pitching. And I trust and I trust Pat Murphy with everything. I really do. But the only pitcher who was an actual starter and not an opener for us was only Freddy Peralta. And that was it. Ashby was starting like every other day it seemed like and but like I said it’s frustrating and as a Brewers fan I don’t know when we’re gonna win it ever. My dad has been a Brewers fan his entire life and he’s seen us make the World Series once in 1982 with Robin Young and Paul Moler and we lost obviously to the Cardinals and I hate the Cardinals and and I’m like and I’m like I just hope that we can make it before my dad dies and it’s not like my dad’s old. It’s not like my dad is sick or anything like that but that’s just where I’m at. And then I’m like, I hope that we can make it before I die because I genuinely I don’t know if I ever can. I was telling my brother this last night and I said, I don’t know what I will feel at that moment when the Brewers win it all because that is a level of happiness that I have never known and I don’t know if I will ever know until the Brewers win. There are three things in my life that I don’t know the level of happiness I will be until it actually happens because I can’t even imagine how happy I will be when my child is born, when I have my wedding, and when the Brewers win the World Series. That’s it. And the thing is, it’s the same thing every year. My brother is an is an eternal optimist when it comes to the Brewers, and he every single year, this is our year. This is our year. And I’m not that way. I look at the team, I say, you know, we have this flaw here, we have this flaw there, and then we start playing and then we start winning and I’m like, you know what? This actually could be our year. And then it never happens. It never ever happens. And it sucks. And I don’t even know what to say. We lost to the better team. And I don’t want to label this thing, this video, what went wrong with the Milwaukee Brewers. What we couldn’t hit is what went wrong. and we lost to a team that is just better. We were outclassed in every way, shape, and form. And then we witnessed the greatest game ever played by a single player. Maybe in the history of sports, you can make a real argument. It’s the best baseball game ever played. And and and we we were sitting front row. When show hit that third home run, I started laughing. I went to my parents who were on a little bit of a delay and I and I watched and Look at this. And Chel had another one. My mom was just like, “What can we do? What can we do? There’s nothing you can do. He he’s he’s he’s the most unbelievable player I’ve ever seen.” And I can’t wait to say to my kids and my grandkids, and I can’t wait to say I got to see Show Otani live. I did. I’ll be able to say that because he will go into the mythos as a mythical character. He’s going to be like in that category of the Will Chamberlain 100point games. that Babe Ruth called shots. That is where show Otani will be and like the Brewers just they fell apart at the wrong time. Yelich couldn’t hit to save his life and and the team ran into a buzzsaw that couldn’t be stopped. The Dodgers had it click late and the Brewers had it fall apart late. And I’m and this this season is not a failure by any stretch of the imagination. It’s not. It’s not. It’s really not. But I’m disappointed and I can still be disappointed because I thought we had a chance. I liked the style of play we had. The regular season went our way. Regular season’s not the playoffs. And I don’t know if I would rather have this or to lose in seven like in 2018 to the Dodgers again. At least this time it was painful. I mean, not painful. Like this time it it it was like, “Oh, well that’s done now. Oh well, we didn’t have a chance.” In 2018, at least we got some wins and that was fun. But in 2018, it like it felt like we had a chance, which made it hurt all the more when we lost. And I just want to make a World Series, man. Like that’s all I want. And I don’t know when, if ever, it will happen. And it’s this team, it beats you down. It beats you down. and other fans don’t understand and I don’t want to hear it. I don’t want to hear it. I’ll give it to the teams that haven’t won a World Series. I’ll give you that. I’ll maybe give it to the Guardians fans because they’ve had an insanely long drought. They made the World Series in 2016. I don’t even know what that’s like. I almost started crying when the Brewers advanced this year against the Cubs. And it’s just I just don’t know if I see a path forward when you have a team that has show Mukbetts, Freddy Freeman, Yamamoto, Blake Snell, Will Smith, Tyler Glass. Now it’s it’s a it’s a it’s an embarrassment of riches and they embarrass the Brewers is at the end of the day that’s what it was. And you lost to Blake Trinan. Sorry that out of nowhere. Just remember that. Come on. He sucks now. It was a joke of a series and and I’m I want to put out an apology that says I’m sorry for giving people any hope that the Brewers could make it a series because clearly I was proven wrong. I said that we could go seven. We couldn’t even go five. I’m so I’m I apologize that I thought we had more fight cuz clearly we didn’t. But that’s what I got. Thanks for listening to Good Sports for You. I had a great time talking to you. I hope you had a good time listening. I really do and I appreciate it. Make sure to like, comment, subscribe, do all those things. But then I’m out.

Thank you for watching! The Brewers lose in the playoffs once again as the Dodgers embarrass the team in the NLCS. I give my thoughts on what happened to this team.
