If you would have pitched the idea to a Brewers fan before tonight’s contest that Noah Syndergaard would only last one inning, and they had to go up against the Dodgers bullpen the entire way. In addition to that, they would have Eric Lauer on the mound, who had an ERA of 2.37 to go along with a 7-1 record over the Dodgers. Would this fan take that deal? Most likely.
Well, that’s exactly what happened, and the Brewers couldn’t get the job done. Early struggles from Lauer didn’t mix well with a quiet night from the offense, resulting in a 6-2 loss to the Dodgers.
