This was correctly scored an error on the first baseman.
The throw got there in the air and hit his glove. Make the catch, and the runner is out. Pretty straightforward and easy to understand.
Brewers pitching in the last two games combined:
19 IP
4 H
0 ER
0 BB
27 K
It's just the second time in MLB history that a team has allowed 0 ER and 0 BB with at least 27 strikeouts in a two-game span. The other time? Also the Brewers in 2020 🤯
Maybe it wasn’t as unexpected by the end of Tony Plush’s clutch 2011, but…
October 7, 2011: Nyjer Morgan sends the Brewers to the NLCS on a walkoff RBI single in the 10th!
Bonus: It’s Ueck’s call of the second playoff series win in franchise history.
The most insane pitching performance I have ever seen.
Jacob Misiorowski allows 1 hit, faces the minimum and strikes out 15 on under 100 pitches
There are no comparable starts in MLB history
So far this season:
Jacob Misiorowski: 1.65 ERA, 13.69 K/9
Kyle Harrison: 1.57 ERA, 11.46 K/9
Since ERA became official in both leagues in 1913, no other MLB team has had 2 pitchers with a sub-2.00 ERA & 11.00+ K/9 at the end of any day in June or later (min. 10 starts each).
And this is why Murphy does the “no names” and “underdogs” thing .
The article could have said the “three time reigning NL Central Champs” or “preseason division favorites” (which no one nationally has the guts to do) .
Instead they went with “small-market Brewers.”
Can’t have it both ways.. can’t get upset with the underdog-mentality and continue to use “small market” as if it’s an insult
