Milwaukee Brewers faced a pitcher in Alfredo Simon who has been terrible to start the year. He's given up many home runs as well as can't really seem to find the strike zone. Yet Simon pitched into the eighth inning against Milwaukee as the starting pitching imploded for another day setting up a tired bullpen for the weekend in Cincinnati.Player of the Game (Reds): Jay Bruce (OF) - Mama, there goes that man again. Jay Bruce will forever and always be the leader of the Brewers Killers Club, and that's not changing in 2016. He hit a three-run homer in the first inning to give the Reds a 3-0 lead very early on in this game. Why Brewers coaches haven't figured out a way to stop Bruce is puzzling. It's been 10 years and he still those this stuff.
Golden Sombrero Honoree: Chase Anderson (P) - Remember when he started out the year with two scoreless outings? Everyone thought maybe this guy will be the difference maker and become trade bait. Since then, he's been a disaster. Anderson surrendered six runs with one unearned on the night. It all happended in the first three innings of the game. Milwaukee cannot put themselves in a hole early on.
Lowlight: Great American always seems to not welcome Milwaukee - Brewers haven't been successful at Cincinnati for the past couple years, and tonight was no different. Anderson isn't a long-time Brewer, but it always seems Milwaukee loses any juice when playing at GABP. It could be a long weekend.
Highlight: For as bad as Anderson was tonight, Chris Capauno had his best night as a 2016 Brewer with two strong innings including five strikeouts. This is the first time in three appearances Capuano hasn't allowed a run.
Up Next; Wily Peralta is on paternity leave meaning Tyler Cravy gets the ball tomorrow night versus Tim Adleman making his second straight of his pro career. Could be a wild one.
Charlie.
