MLB Network | “Crew in 3” – Steve Phillips REACTS Brewers beat Chicago Cubs 7-3 for 2-0 lead in NLDS
bang a hold in this series. Welcome to MLB tonight presented by Strauss alongside our host leadoff spot Steve Phillips and sevenear major league veteran Anthony Reer Madam B. Reck. What are you laughing about already? I uh you know Adnan, there’s a lot going on tonight and I’m just happy to be here and excited to get this look this we got some great baseball. Yes. And I’m just look at how many heels we’re putting up the uh who wore it better right there. Yeah. How did I get left out of the memo on this thing? Like what where were you guys? Why am I not included in it? I like the red though. You guys have the red. I went more just like I kept with the maroon, you know. I should have I should have highlighted the red. That’s baseball and fashion advice. Well, I I mean, my gosh, I’m just left out. Where I mean, where’s Lock of Teamwork? It’s perfect. We got I don’t know. I kind of wanted to matchy matchy with you guys. There’s always next time. Uh, as far as the Milwaukee Brewers, they take care of business here against Chicago Cubs. And, uh, Steve, this is a strangle that 20 series lead. You do what you need to do, which is take care of business at home. It feels like a mismatch. I mean it I mean even this game at seven to three felt like it was so out of reach for the Cubs and you know the Cubs have gotten the lead in each in the first inning of each of the first two games and then they immediately give the lead back and ended up being tied today and then the next thing you know the the Brewers just keep pouring it on. The number of power arms that the Brewers can run out there right from 98 to 104. Everybody throws that that hard. And offensively, you know, they did it in game one without hitting any home runs. And today, they got all the runs from the home run. They can do it in so many different ways. And I think they’re a very underrated team coming in. Best record in the National League, but not nearly the credit that I think they deserve. Honestly, the what I took away from this game was I was a little surprised by their approach that they went into the game pitching wise. The Brewers decided, you know what, we’re going to go with an opener. We thought it was going to be Quinn Prester. We don’t see end up seeing Quinn Prester at all. Obviously, you know, Ashby, I love him, didn’t have, you know, like the best first inning, but it all ends up working out anyway for Pat Murphy for whatever reason. I mean, the guy has the golden touch. Everything he does somehow works out for this team so far. See if he can keep going. And speaking of pitchers that stepped up, Jacob Bizarowski will join us here in MLB tonight. So, look forward to that. as that young man came through obviously well documented made the all-star team struggled in the second half but tonight the miss was awfully impressive as the Brewers win this game 7 to3 is your final conversely wrecking for the Chicago Cubs hey game one you had homerred them three nothing in this game unfortunately you do score three runs but yet to really get going and the pitching really feel like they’re missing Kate Horton I mean all three runs early you know and and that’s that was the entirety of their offense but realistically it’s their pitching so far in this series that’s really let them down when you look at the Chicago team and we knew it coming into the playoff house. This was probably their biggest weakness. And then we got the news that Kate Horton would not be a part of the staff for this series. That’s when it, you know, you kind of start to think, what are they going to do? How are they going to get through these innings? Who are they going to go to? And they haven’t had the answers yet. They have not been able to figure it out. In Managa, the first two batters of the game, I’m thinking blows him away with heaters. Oh, he’s going to look great tonight. He’s going to cruise. And sure enough, I mean, ends up giving up three runs in that first inning. Lets the Brewers right back in this. And then the rest of the game, you just could tell they just seem to be scuffling and can’t quite find the right mix. So, the Brewers win game two as we head out to American Family Field and talk to the young man, Jacob Misarowski, who was stelling this game. Jacob, congratulations on a terrific win. I’m curious, at what point did you know what the pitching plan was for Pat Murphy tonight? Uh, when my name got called in the bullpin, that was it. So, you had no indication you could be going two, three innings, whatever it was, right? No, I was letting it eat from the first inning. So, yeah, that’s all I knew. Oh, that’s good. Interesting to know. What was the atmosphere like? It felt like it was electric there at American Family Field. Oh, so much fun. Yeah. Yeah. I got fans standing behind the camera right now. It’s uh it’s awesome. I love it. Good for you. And enjoy it. I tell you what, you did a fantastic job. So, I’m curious. You know, you had that that sort of experience of being brought into the game in relief in the regular season in the middle of an inning. Now, you came in to start the inning this time around, but what have you done to get yourself mechanically in sync coming out of the bullpen to throw enough strikes? Yeah, I mean, I think that’s just from Hookie and all the guys like that that just uh, you know, pounding in my head with what I need to do and it’s helped a lot. Look, Jacob, you you know, you took the league by storm. Obviously, uh, you know, early in your career, you like anybody, there’s there’s bumps in the road, right? you take it as it comes, but to see you come through on this stage. Take us through a little bit of what you were feeling out there, how this moment kind of, you know, I guess un unfolded for you and what it felt like to be out there in front of that crowd. Yeah, I mean, it’s a dream come true. I think, you know, I had so much adrenaline pumping through me, you know, just wanting to uh, you know, perform and uh do well for my teammates. It’s interesting as well, Jacob, in terms of just the season you’ve had, right? You come up like a supernova. You make the Allar team had some struggles in the second half. How about your control? How are you able to harness that tonight and make sure you’re throwing strikes? Yeah. Again, I think it’s just Hookie and those guys that are in the in the bullpin with me and uh helps a lot, you know, just, you know, honing stuff in, not trying to spray and just being myself. So, okay. So, the last out of the first inning that you’re in there, you get the ground ball back to you. Instead of flipping it to Andrew Vaughn, you run it all the way over to first base and then the roar. Take me through the decision. Do I flip it? Do I throw it? Did you just want to take it? Like take us through all of that thinking and then the roar itself afterwards. No, I think I just had so much adrenaline that I couldn’t like, you know, control my hand. I was like worried that I was going to flip it too high or something and I was like, I’m not testing it. We’re just running it to the bag, you know? So, it was just it was one of those just game time decisions to like not, you know, mess anything up. Jacob, speaking of that adrenaline, you come out there and I mean, I don’t know if it was the first seven, eight fast balls you threw, whatever it was, all of north of 103. I mean, how did you feel coming out of the pen tonight? Did you feel that adrenaline? And is that something I mean, we should expect from you if you’re going to be coming out of the pen the rest of this uh postseason? I mean, I I would like to hope so, but you know, it’s uh I felt really good today. So, I can’t say that it’s going to be every time 104 10, you know, 103, but you know, it’s the that’s the goal every time. So, VO not an issue for Jacob Mizer. You guys pick up the win. You and Ashby, by the way, the pride of Crowder College. I’m sure they’re celebrating there. I’m very proud of you as well. Thanks, Jacob. Yes, sir. Thank you. Nobody beats them as Jacob Mizerowski. Success for the Brewers in game two. As you take a look at the numbers overall, the most pitches of 102 plus miles per hour in a single game. Look at the Miz 12 in this game. Wow. Even more than Mason Miller in the NL wild card series game two at Chicago or a Raldis Chapman back in 2017 as a member of the Yankees against Cleveland. A lot of high heat early and often. That was the story for Jacob Isarowski. And this is a great story, Philly. We saw how much he struggled in the second half to come back like this. This is really nice to see. You know what what is so interesting to me? Like a lot of times when a rookie pitcher comes up, he’s not throwing strikes. the manager will be like, “Well, you know, listen, he’s feeling his way through. He’s better.” Pat Murphy’s like, “It’s got to be better.” Yeah. It’s not It’s not good enough. It’s got he’s got to fix it. It’s not. And so, like that that way of managing it is not coddling, but it’s sort of pushing and saying, “Look, I know you can do better. So, let’s figure out a pathway to get there.” And remember that first relief appearance was not a good one. He scattered it all over the place, came in the middle of an inning, and they did manage it in a way for him to start the inning this time around, but he lit it up. and and the Cubs hitters at that point felt like I’m not trying to get hits. I’m hoping to put it in play. Like I’m hoping to touch it because the swing and miss was overwhelming. And he couldn’t really command the break and stuff, but just knowing that it was there, at least planted that seed in the head. Oh, absolutely. And he doesn’t have to necessarily land a whole lot of those. as a hitter, you see 104 coming, you got to gear up for that. But then as soon as you see a couple of wrinkles, okay, uh 104 to 86, how am I supposed to try to figure out my timing with between those two variances? That’s really tough to do. And I’m going to go back real quick to what you mentioned about Pat Murphy and just kind of the way he’s handled this young man and the way he’s handled this team, right? I mean, this is a guy who’s, you know, came up and and coached in the college ranks. knows how to handle young men, knows how to build them up mentally and and really kind of create that toughness and that mental toughness to go out there where in big moments they’ve got it. And I think that’s what we’re seeing. A guy who understands how to get and almost force accountability on you as a player, but not in a negative way. He’s not going out and throwing you under the bus. He’s saying, “No, Jacob would tell you he needs to be better.” So, yeah, I’m going to say he needs to be better. And I think that forces these young guys to really learn what this game is all about. Yeah. And he’s showed a lot of perseverance this season. Struggling in the regular season. Now he has his moment at least to hopefully build off confidence-wise. Rack, let’s talk about this Brewers offense. They didn’t hit home runs in game one. They scored nine runs the first two innings. This time they showed some bang. Well, look, make no mistake, this team has the ability to hit the ball out of the ballpark. I mean, last year they were top 10 in home runs. This is not a team that’s averse to hitting homers. Are they a little bit of a different team? Yeah, absolutely. William Contras didn’t have the same year. All that kind of thing. But I’ll tell you what, they’ve got the talent and what we’ve seen from them all season long. A guy like Sal Felic who’s at times found a way to hit some homers. Bryce Terang has kind of turned it on and all of a sudden he can hit some homers. We know Jackson Sho’s got an in. Christian Yelich can hit his homers. They’ve got guys on this team that have power. What they’ve gotten now from Andrew Vaughn, obviously Contrarus late in the season started hitting more homers. this team can beat you in a multitude of ways and anytime you get in a postseason series, I think that’s that’s really a great recipe because they don’t strike out a lot. They’re not going to strike out. That’s not going to change. But now they’re adding the long ball, too. This team is going to be a really tough out. You know, obviously this series isn’t over. They still got to take one more against the Cubs, but if they do that, whoever they’re facing next, and if they keep moving on, they’re going to be a tough out. Only 32.6% 6% of the runs coming from the home run. The second lowest in baseball only to the Pirates. And the Pirates, I think, were lasted runs scored this year. The Brewers score runs. They just don’t do with a home run. So, they get on, they get them over, they get them in. Nine runs in game one. Not a single home run of the 13 hits that they had. Now, every run by the home run in this game today, but they’re also great with two outs. All seven runs in this game came with two outs. The fourth most two out runs scored in baseball this year. They’re relentless, right? And so just when you think, okay, we’re going to get out of this inning. And those two out runs are back breakers for pitchers. And so this offense is is dynamic. They’re one of the best base running teams. They can steal bases. They do everything that you can do to score. And we know that the currency of postseason baseball is the home run. And they showed they’ve got that in the arsenal as well. And teams that go up 200 in a best of five historically win that series 89% of the time. It’s a tall task right now for Cubs manager Craig Council. Let’s listen to what Counts has to say. Craig, just how do you digest a game like that? Um, yeah, I mean, look, they had we made a couple mistakes with multiple runners on base and after after getting off to a great start. Um, you know, those mistakes were two three-run homers is going to be you’re not going to win playoff games giving up two three run homers. That that was just too much to overcome. Bruce in the third row. It looked like you uh tried everything you could to get some run production starting with your lineup tonight, but uh since all of your um runs have been through via homer. Um what what do you have to do to stay in this series going toward forward? Yeah, I mean I think there’s, you know, in the first two games, we have just not, you know, produced enough pressure on on on them. Um, first two innings, we did a nice job. I we we had two at bats with runners in scoring position today. Um, you know, that’s that’s a pretty good sign that we’re not creating enough pressure. We had one hit after the second after the second inning. Um, and it’s, you know, that’s that’s going to add up to a lot of zeros. Um and and that’s what happened in the last last seven or eight innings. So um we’ve got to find a way to just create more pressure and that’s best base runners, hits um walks. We’ve got to have more pressure um and make innings and kind of pitching decisions much tougher on the other side. Steve, in the fourth row, just the variety of arms they have coming out of the bullpen. Just how much how dangerous is that? How tough was that to deal with with all the different guys they had coming in after? Yeah, I mean, look, I think from our perspective, we we we started the game off in a in a really good way. Um, you know, we we we scored a bunch off Ashby, made him work, got him out of there before the second inning was was uh complete. Um but yeah, they they they we had, you know, early opportunity maybe early like Mizowski before he settled in. We we needed to get him before he settled in and he made some pitches to uh you know the strike out of Hap that if H Ian gets on there, you know, then then there’s some pressure on him immediately. Um but ultimately we just we didn’t create pressure on any of their guys. Um and and so then they, you know, they got some confidence and obviously they had a lead and and the lead pitching with that lead helps as well. Um just couldn’t get anything going. Steve, down in the front, they hit you back so fast in the first. I don’t know how much you believe in momentum as a thing, as a factor, but was that just such a swing that it’s it’s it was hard to overcome and it’s going to be hard to overcome? Well, I mean, look, there there’s we got two outs there. Um, yeah, I mean, you you get an out there and it’s a diff there’s no question. It’s a different game. And that’s what that’s what the three runs homers do. I mean, it just it changes games dramatically. Um, so we got one first. Um, to put up a zero in that inning, I mean, it’s a completely different game, obviously. Um, but credit to Vaughn. He he got a pitch and he had a good at bat and fouled off a couple pitches and hit one. So, you know, at that point it’s it’s, you know, you’re you’re back to even and back to square one. Um, you know, in a in a ball game completely in a ball game. Um, completely in the ball game even after Conturus’s homer. Um, you know, Daniel just 02 unfortunately left just too much of plate on an 02 pitch. But yeah, I mean, like I said, two three-run homers, man, that’s playoff game, any game tough to overcome. Two, three run homers. Kurt third round the middle. Craig Miz and Churio were a couple guys that were starting to get some pretty good hype when you were in the organization. I’m just curious if you kind of envision them as potential, you know, playoff real impact players um from what you knew and know of them. Yeah, both. Yeah, both very talented players and um yeah, I mean I I think you expected them to be big leaguers. Absolutely. Go to Christina in the second round. I guess going back to Chicago, what’s got to be the mindset, the mentality for the team? Uh, it’s simple. I mean, we got to just win pitches. We got to win moments. Um, and it you got to stay with your process and your routines. Um, it’s simple as that. We got our work cut out for us, but it’s done by winning one pitch at a time and succeeding one pitch at a time. Um, it’s going to be a fun environment. We’re looking forward to to Wednesday and our our road back to Milwaukee starts, you know, starts on Wednesday afternoon. Take two more, Megan, and then back down to Steve in the front. Uh I know showed us talked about just trying to find answers to some of the first inning struggles and the home runs and obviously he first two batters was seemingly locked in. Just what do you make of kind of those continued issues popping up despite you know him trying to find a way to to get rolling in those areas? Yeah, I mean, look, there’s a there’s a tipping point to to I think giving up home runs and and Shota has succeeded because he’s kept runners off base and and maybe the solo home run doesn’t hurt you as much. Um, again, I’m going to reiterate, a three-run homer is going to kill you. Um, and you can survive some solo home runs, homers with men on base like that, you’re going to have a tough time surviving them. Um, and you know, he did get off to a good start. There was some swing and miss the first two innings for sure. That was was good to see. Um, but you know, the long ball at the rate he’s given it up right now is is with runners on base like that’s going to be hard to overcome. Steve, Craig, just the just the way guys are going. Um, you look at your pieces right now. Do you do you have enough to work with to do this? Do you see a path with what you Yeah, I mean the path start. It’s a Wednesday game and it’s a Jameson tie on good start that uh gets us into the game. We we’ve got to get our starters into the game. Um that has to happen. Uh especially if you’re going to try to win three games in four days that we’re going to have to get some we’re going to have to get our starters into the game. Um and and J’s tasked with it on Wednesday and looking forward to handing the ball. Craig Craig Council always a professional answering the questions after a tough loss for his team against the Milwaukee Brewers. In terms of this pitching, you know, you feel like with the Tigers, they’ve patented the term pitching chaos of the AJ Hinch. But in terms of this performance for Pat Murphy wreck, you start with Ash, but you go to Mir’s Miseros being the long guy. They’ve got so many different weapons, so many different arms at their disposal. This was an impressive pitching performance. Yeah. I mean, what’s scary is you look at this Brewers bullpen and I would have told you coming into the postseason, this might be the best bullpen in the big leagues and certainly in this postseason. Then you add Jacob Miserowski to this and I mean it’s really Pat Murphy has, you know, the the greatest problem in all of sports. Who do I go to? Where do I go? Cuz I have so many arms that I can utilize. Who do I want to use now in this situation? And he can really play matchup ball. He can figure out how he wants to navigate these lineups. What he decided tonight was I’m going to let Aaron go. I’m going to see what I can get out of him. Yeah, he only got an inning and two/3s, but he got where he wanted to obviously and then handed it off to me and then the rest just followed suit. And I’ll tell you what, having that as a problem as a manager being able to go to this many arms, this many guys, you said it earlier, throwing a hundred, it is a great problem to have. And again, this is going to be a team that how are how are other teams going to deal with this moving forward? That’s going to be the issue. If they can go bullpen game and get a, you know, obviously performance like this from everyone that steps out there on the field, that’s going to be a problem. Yeah. I think the one thing that’s interesting is that that Pat Murphy dictated the Cubs lineup by using Ashby, right? So, it takes Michael Bush out of the game. Bush who’s been one of the guys slugging the baseball for them. And so, he took control of the game. We all thought that Quinn Pier might be the bulk guy coming in behind Ashby. He didn’t even see the field in this game. But I think that once Msowski got in there, and I think for Pat Murphy, he didn’t really know what to expect from Ms. But then once he saw him get through the first inning, and then he sees him go through the second inning, you’ve got to ride that velocity because the Cubs hitters looked over match. So he gets three innings out of him and then he can just divvy up the rest of it with quality relievers with an off day tomorrow uh so they can all recover and all be ready to go for game three. And so he managed it extremely well and Ms.ki really made him look like a genius because I didn’t know how they were going to use him. Didn’t look like they were going to start him. I wasn’t sure you could bring him out of the bullpen. I had some doubts about it. Man, he erased all those doubts. He was overpowering. Overall, the Spurs bullpen just one hit allowed in seven and a third scoreless innings. You mentioned the days off, Philly, and it’s interesting. Game off, game off. Now you travel and go to Chicago. It’s an odd rhythm to it, but if you can work your bullpen in a certain way, you can use it to your advantage. It is, but it also I think for hitters has to be tough. Let’s put this way. For the Cubs hitters, it felt like it was tough to get a rhythm to get going a little bit. But the first inning, you know, when the Cubs get the three nothing lead and then immediately give it back, that changes the whole dynamic. And then when when the Brewers get out to the 7-3 lead, if you’re a pitcher, don’t don’t even think about the three-run home run. Just strike one. If they hit a home run, so be it. It’s a solo shot. They just attack the zone. And with that kind of stuff, they get hitters out in the zone and they can make good hitters look bad. That’s the key. I mean, you you touched on it. You have to anytime a team gives you a lead or comes back in a game. Anytime you put up runs as as a pitcher, as a catcher, it was always we got to go out and we’re not just putting up a zero. We have to put up an X. And that means you come out and it’s just a different attitude. And yes, to your point, you have to attack. If you do give up the solo home run, we can live with that because we can overcome that. It’s the multi-run, you know, innings that really hurt you. those crooked numbers. They’re not allowing that to happen and they’re not going to with the stuff that they have. No, bullpen certainly was great and expertly managed by manager Pat Murphy. Let’s hear from Pat right now. What was your confidence level in Miz going into it and where is it now? And and was tonight just to kind of as he goes you you kept him in there depending on how he was looking. I mean we were thinking um somewhere between 30 and 50 pitches and we were thinking that he let us know he was gassed. is very emotional and you know you you guys know what he’s been through but um he responded and I think that’s a really good sign of the keys to the game. There was a lot of them. You know this game is in a lot of different parts but I mean uh Miz um stepped up. You guys get all enthralled with the uh MPH. I’m enthralled with that he wasn’t giving up free bases. Kept his composure with you know runners and that type of thing. So yeah, William again, Contras had an unbelievable game, not only uh offensively, but he had a great game defensively, too. And he he got him through that. He he caught seven pitchers tonight, a lot with inexperience. Never been in the playoffs, and he uh navigated it pretty well. Stay in that third row. Pat Miserowski is so emotional and that’s that’s just part of his DNA. Do you know him? No, I just just looking at him, right? Oh, okay. I mean, do you have to harness that at all? Do you especially in the postseason game? Any conversation with him about just kind of chill controlling that? I don’t know. Do you I mean, you got to let him express himself, but then you got to watch and see if he comes back to where he needs to be. Um, it’s hard, you know. It’s like I came off the mound in second inning and I, you know, he was ratting and raving and I gave him a little like, okay, stay with it. Um, but you know, he’s here at the highest level for a reason and uh he’s been through some ups and downs. So, I think he’s pretty on pretty aware and pretty on high alert. You know, go to the second row here towards the middle. [Music] or if this offense so predicated on just base hits, singles, doubles, but three home runs, the big difference tonight. How does that feel watching your offensive production come from the long ball instead of just base hits? Anytime, you know, home runs are thrown. Um they’re not they’re not created, you know, I mean, they’re thrown and, you know, we took advantage of that. And um sometimes that happens for us during the season. Sometimes we have to win other ways. But the key is you got to find a way. And if you have different ways to win, if you just rely on one thing, it’s it’s harder to win. So, I’m really pleased we did. I mean, Vaughn’s home run and then and then uh Contrus and and Cheerio’s homers, I mean, was the difference in the game, but you don’t see that from the Brewers very often, but it was it was great. It did. You know, Contrus’s pitch wasn’t really a a home run pitch, but he pulled his hands in really well. Uh Vaughn did a great job of of um getting it out in front and u ball that kid is I mean he shows he posts in the in the biggest games of the year. Go to Lamont uh far right in the second round. Lamont, did you introduce yourself yesterday and today or you just sneaking in here and not getting I think the first day I was here. Did you introduce yourself? Yeah. Poke Chicago Trivia. What’s that? Lamont Pope, Chicago Tribune. I want to ask you about I don’t think you introduced yourself. You tried to sneak out of the way and I caught you. Andrew Vaughn, you mentioned him. Just just what has he meant to the ball club really since uh since arriving? Yeah, he’s been a great addition. I mean, he’s a great young man. The game humbled him. He’s in AAA and he’s struggling in AAA and the game humbled him. And it just goes to show you how mental this game is and how much of this game has to do with our mindset and then him getting this opportunity because of an injury and then another guy opted out and we weren’t we weren’t he wasn’t first on the list to bring up and then all of a sudden he gets his opportunity, doesn’t say a word, keeps his head down. First game gets a great pitch to hit from Yamamoto, you know, hits a three-run homer, feels the energy and he just played off it the rest of the time. And now I’d say he’s back into a spot where he feels great about who he is and how he contributes. Tremendous teammate, tremendous baseball mind, always studying the game. Um, it’s been a joy to be around him. I mean, I don’t know how many games he’s been here, but you guys would know, but he’s Yeah. And that the team trusts him. They just trust him. Defensively, also, we heard like, “Ah, he’s a little shaken.” This kid’s been unbelievable defensively and it’s all about who he’s become and how he feels like he can help and he’s got a real role in the team and yeah, people want to be wanted and you know uh his teammates love him. It’s pretty cool. I’m back to the second row in the middle. Murphy, you talk a lot about how you respond or your team responds or you know in those moments. How do I respond? I think it’s I same every day. I’m just standing there. You know what I mean? take a sip, put it down. I’m not responding. I’m just It’s about how the team responds when they get knocked down or how you know in a fight. And you you use that analogy a lot. It’s one thing to do that in the regular season, but your team has now done it twice, you know, after getting hit there in that first inning. Uh just what do you think of how your team has done that the last two two games? People are wondering, you know, how does this team have the best record in baseball? How does this team with? And nobody predicted they’d be over 500. And then we have all the injuries. Certainly, nobody was banking on us, but how did that happen? It’s the group of people in the room. It’s the group of people in the room that know how to wash it off. They know how to bounce back. They know how to have a bad series and and understand the importance of the next pitch. And that relentless kind of behavior is, you know, a separator. But don’t think other teams and other guys don’t do it, too. We’ve just got a good collection of guys that, you know, are happy they’re in the big leagues. I call them cliffhers. You know, guys that don’t know if their locker is going to be there when they get back to the to the deal. And that’s that’s a fun thing. That hunger, you know, makes us look like we know what we’re doing. You know what I mean? It’s It’s pretty cool, especially in

Brewers in three? Sounds like Steve is still in to threesome's.
Th Brewers can do it so many different ways and it is exciting to watch. Priester will start in game 3 at Wrigley Field on Wednesday. He is a Chicago boy who will want to pitch well for his friends and family.
The team logo superimposed over the interviews makes this video unbearable. Get the darn thing out of here.
This is my crew!!
Counsel sucks! 2 men on base with no outs and he can’t figure out a way to get a run in
22:53 “do you know him?” lol. Love Murph
Doesn't he mean best record in the MLB?
Johnpeek I agree get that logo off.
Someone get Craig a tissue
As a lifetime Brewer fan, just the look on Counsel’s face every time the camera panned over there was worth the duplicity we felt when he left.
The media never mention that starters are injured on the Brewers or Packers when they play or loose. But when the other teams loosexto is, they mention who the other team is without.
All the levers Murph has pulled in this series have been spot-on. His choice to hold Priester until G3 at Wrigley works in Brewers favor. If Priester falters in early innings, Murph will not hesitate to go back to Miz.
Asking the Miz dumb questions. He is 23 not 13.
The one thing that I love about Pat Murphy is, and that carries over to the team is that Pat Murphy NEVER EVER GIVES UP ON ANYONE!! The same exact way that the Brewers NEVER EVER GIVE UP when their behind. They never ever quit! They keep fighting and scrapping! Pat Murphy KNOWS that Jacob Misiorowski is an extremely talented pitcher! He would not give up on him! Pat Murphy TRUSTS his players! And his players have the UTMOST RESPECT for Pat Murphy. Jacob Misiorowski is a really talented pitcher. I still say that he is capable of becoming a 20-Game winner! I also believe he is capable of hitting 250+ Strikeouts for a season!! Pat Murphy wanted Jacob Misiorowski to get his confidence back. But Pat Murphy also had to be careful since these are extremely important, VITAL games. Jacob Misiorowski responded perfectly! He gives the Brewers another really great weapon either out of the Bullpen or as a potential Starting Pitcher. I know not having Brandon Woodruff is a big loss, but seeing Jacob Misiorowski come back and throw like he did back in his Debut, really helps give Pat Murphy some choices, and some really good choices as well!
When Counsel left and took the Cubs job I felt disgusted like I was cheated on. Now looking back and seeing his team shrivel up and die once they meet any adversity like the brewers did countless times when he was our manager. I am so grateful he did take that job because that allowed the brewers to find the best manager in baseball and make this team something truly special! (I do still and will always get satisfaction seeing the traitor squirming in the dugout when the brewers are dismantling the cubs😊)
The only credit the Brewers have not been getting is from these garbage national analysts that only pay attention to the big market teams. Nobody picks the Brewers, and its hilarious.
The better pitching staff is showing up big time. The Cubs are relying on two Brewers cast offs too help win big games. Imagine if the Brewers starters were all healthy.
Counsell hiding from the camera. Loved that.
Murph is a great manager, he protects his players and pushes them to get better. He called out the reporter who said Miz is so emotional, “do you know him?” Reporter has already started his article and wants to lead Murph, he wasn’t having it. 😮
I hope we beat the brewers 2 times and they can win game 5 Send them to the next series absolutely tired 😴 avoid the sweep that will give them more rest time I don’t think we can beat them, but he can drag this out. Make them work a bit more.
Excuse me dude…best record in ALL OF BASEBALL….how do these idiots get paid to tell inaccuracies every day?
Cubs have a drunken door knob level fans and we will be glad to see them never come back to Amfam.
