Is the ump from Wisconsin by any chance? Or does he just have someone else's contacts in?

[70charger]

 

Anyone know what Kepler's '030' tattoo on his elbow means?

 

It's a fairly typical area code tattoo. In this case, that area code happens to be for Berlin, Germany.

[drock2190]

Meals killed the mojo of the entire inning!

[Squirrel]

Well, poop

[Darius]

If the Brewers come back and win this, it’s solely on the ump in that Kepler AB. He should be sent home between innings. What a joke.

[Squirrel]

 

The Berlin area code. Or his part of Berlin.

Thanks. Love Berlin ... awesome city

[FlauerPauer]

98 for May. Wow!

He is from Milwaukee, so say the Brewers announcers. Am I falling for a joke?

[drock2190]

They might as well dress this home plate umpire in Wisconsin Badger gear 

[70charger]

Has anyone yet mentioned that Ryan Braun is awful? Because Ryan Braun is awful.

[DocBauer]

Dear Mr. Meals,

 

Thank you for your participation.

 

On further review of your performance, you may pick up your final check and travel voucher at the Brewer's VIP desk.

[70charger]

Ugh. Piña again.

[FlauerPauer]

Rats.

[DocBauer]

Dagnabit!

[Aggies7]

At some point, you need to get a start of 6+ innings

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Rats.

You can say that again.

[DocBauer]

Great, I need to shower post lawn mowing and eat supper and the game is tied!

[Squirrel]

aw ****

[DocBauer]

Would have tried to throw Dobnak another inning last night.

[FlauerPauer]

I'd rather them score runs after the third inning in some games.

[stringer bell]

Not to rage too much at the home plate umpire, but that was strike three to Gyorko that Meals missed.

[Danchat]

Come on hitters, we've left enough guys on base today. Let's see some RISP hits!

[Mill1634]

Yikes. This is why I’m not a fan of bullpen games. If one guy doesn’t have it you’re in trouble. Now we have burnt through May and stashak, and have to throw three more innings in a tie ball game.

[Aggies7]

I'd rather them score runs after the third inning in some games.

Definitely that too. Just saying we can’t keep asking 5+ innings out of the bullpen. Every night,

[FlauerPauer]

Good thing Jhoan Duran, a starter, is sitting in St. Paul and Thorpe, Thielbar, Gerrein are sitting in Milwaukee. He may not be able to go 6 right now, but he could probably go 4 and save said mentioned pitchers.

[DocBauer]

I think Duran is an interesting idea, especially while the roster is expanded with so many pen arms available.

[Aggies7]

Man, the offense goes to beddy bye late in games

[DocBauer]

Have to head out. Have a good night everyone.

 

Go Twins!

[FlauerPauer]

 

Definitely that too. Just saying we can’t keep asking 5+ innings out of the bullpen. Every night,

 

Cleveland has had a quality start in 15 of their 18 games...
