“One bad pitch” is one of those baseball cliches that can drive people crazy.
After all, if baseball is a game of inches, to steal another cliche, just about any close game is decided by One Bad Pitch.
But, forgive me, Brandon Woodruff had One Bad Pitch Monday night against the Reds, and it ended up costing the Brewers the first game of their important three-game set in Cincinnati.
Woodruff went toe-to-toe with Luis Castillo through 5 innings, and held a 1-0 lead thanks to a Jedd Gyorko blast when Castillo hung an 0-2 changeup the previous inning.
