No one told Joey and Jay we were trying to lose

Two teams that are a combined 47.5 games out of first place shouldn’t be allowed to play for 4 hours. If the Geneva Convention doesn’t prohibit it, it should. The game featured a pop-up bunt that fell in for a hit to drive in a run, a ground out on a check swing on a pitch that bounced in front of the plate, two errors on infielders who were unable to handle throws from the outfield, and a wild pitch thrown when a relief pitcher at bat was trying to bunt. It was a game where the thing Marty Brennaman got the most excited about was two Brewers hitters who wouldn’t stay in the batters box during their AB.
