Snell’s Secret Weapon Poised to Shut Down Brewers’ Powerful Offense—Can They Crack the Code?
The Brewers found a way to advance, winning all three games at home in the five-game set with the Cubs. I can’t say it was all that surprising, given that the Brewers were the more dominant team most of the season. The team hit three solo homers, which is not what I would’ve expected for the club. Their offense went silent on the road, scoring just three runs in the two games away from Miller Park. I have to give a bit of a tip of the cap to the Brewers manager, as he found a way to repeatedly play matchups and make enough changes to keep the Cubs offense guessing. Ultimately, it was Chicago living and dying by the longball. Their players repeatedly struck out when it mattered most. Trolling the Cubs by “flying” the L flag was a bit goofy. I don’t think I’d ever take a picture with my team and a big L flag in the background. I’m not butthurt about it, but now you have something out there that everyone can post when you fall short of winning the World Series. The Brewers, at the moment, have not declared a starter, which likely means this is a bullpen game.
