Brewers struggle against Rockies; bats stay quiet

The Milwaukee Brewers just can’t start up their ailing offense. It’s as simple as that. The Brewers came into the 2015 season as one of the teams that could be a potential wildcard in the National League. Sportswriters all across the nation couldn’t have been more excited to write about such a power-hitting offense. Instead, the Brew Crew decided to spoil everyone’s excitement and give the fans of Milwaukee an unpleasant surprise and a bad taste in their mouth. In fact this team is so bad that their record is 26-46 the second worst in the majors, and are 21 games out of first place. Milwaukee just lost the series against the Rockies, losers of six straight before facing the Brewers, at Coors Field, a ballpark that horrid offense like Milwaukee’s come to and get back on track. The Brewers scored nine runs in the series opener, and won 9-5. Milwaukee scored two homers in the first innings, off the bats of Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez. Adam Lind had 4 R.B.I’s also, with a couple of doubles. Taylor Jungman got the win for Milwaukee, while his counterpart, Jorge De La Rosa came out with the loss. In the middle match, Colorado’s offense played good early as they cruised to victory, 5-1. Chad Gettis pitched for the Rockies going 6.1 innings while only allowing five hits and one run, a homerun by Adam Lind. Charlie Blackmon went 2 for 4 with three R.B.I.’s and a longball. On Fathers Day, The Rubber Match of the series, the Rockies offense exploded with 10 runs off of Matt Garza and the Brewers relievers. Charlie Blackmon had another great day at the plate going 3 for five with five R.B.I’s and two homers.

the brewers are the hottest team in baseball. they just won 8 in a row-7 ON THE ROAD. if the keep it up according to mlb.com they will find themselves only 4 games out of the wildcard spot.

wow, you have big dreams, mr szczap. the brewers are one of the worst teams in baseball and you know it. by the way, I am the best player on my team right now, batting over .400

What did I tell you it can from mlb.com, not my DREAMS. And they just won 8 straight. I would agree with you in may but not now!!!!! if you keep on thinking about the brewers you might as well start rooting for the cubs or the cardinals.

Their record is horibble but the way they have playing lately Milwaukee is definetly not the worst team in baseball.
8:35 pm
Come on… They got rid of Aramis Ramirez for WHO??? Some players no one has even heard of. this is like the grienke deal. we get rid of him for rookies, and he throws a no hitter. I wish doug Melvin had a brain. P. S. I have the best average out of every elkhorn and east troy team

Ramirez is getting old. And why are you so mad about it when you keep on saying the Brewers suck so bad. the Gomez deal was totally worth it. Sure, the player that brought so much excitement to Milwaukee is now gone but youl’ve got to look at the future man. they got 4 players in the mlb.com top 50 prospects and one of them is number 2. And in the greinke deal they gained segura

cant wait for football season. packers gonna win it ALL this year. But without Jordy, it will be tough. hope devonte adams can step up and play good
9:30 am
I think nelson’s loss means no Sb 50. Adams can step up though. As a rook he caught 5 td’s. He has reliable hands and a quick body.
