  1. My favorite part of embarrassing losses are all the “good teams don’t lose like this” comments even though yes they do sometimes and always have in baseball

  2. This game spiraled after Shaw’s home run. Hopefully, the Brewers lose tonight. George Kirby is pitching well so far

  3. Hoerner had a really bad game. He’s been striking out a lot more and swinging at shit. Shaw looks to be emerging. Let’s get PCA back in, an actual MLB starter tomorrow and get Tucker to start hitting for power. They’ll take 2/3 unless the royals just go off…

  4. Please Jed give us somebody, we can’t go into the playoffs with just Shota and Boyd

  5. Ben Brown has to be like an elaborate jackass skit. “Hi I’m Johnny Knoxville and today we’re gonna see how awful someone can be and still pitch in the major leagues.” *hits the music*

  6. I walked away from following this one in the third inning, and then I just got this score alert on my phone…

  7. Well done Berti. He pitched an efficient and scoreless 9th on just 5 pitches 4 of which were thrown for strikes. Watch out Ben Brown – Jon’s ERA is now down to 6.75 and might pass your unsightly 6.48 soon

  8. Will this finally be the game where we do not see Ben Brown again this season. I thought the disaster in St. Louis was it

  9. So, yeah that was frustrating. Yeah, I’m sick of seeing “bullpen games”
    But have you all watched this team all year? It’s baseball. Think of the Yankees series. The names on this Royals team aren’t a buncha nobodies. They have potential. They just haven’t hit like it and it doesn’t help when we are serving up nervous meatball lover Ben Brown. Cameron’s had a really nice year.

    It’s a homecoming of sorts for 45-year-old Rich Hill tomorrow. And the Cubs have Matthew Boyd starting. It’s one game that surely sucked, but this team has bounced back all year.

  10. bro what devil magic is fueling the brewers, i stg the second this game ended they broke the no hitter and scored

  11. Don’t wanna burst any bubbles but the brewers have scored 3 runs after they were being no hit about six minutes ago.

  12. Lost the division lead because we trotted out Ben brown. I’m actually sick.

  13. 3-0 brewers. This ball club needs to be at the front of the line for every single hot pitcher on a selling team, and they must get a better third basemen from Arizona.

  14. Shake it off and get after it tomorrow. Ben Brown belongs nowhere near an MLB starting rotation

  15. Brown should not have been pulled up. I would have rather given another kid a chance than bringing back a known loser
