Yes, It’s Just Spring Training But Nice To See Brewers Pound Kershaw & Bauer
Spring Training results are usually nothing to get excited about. It’s exhibition baseball that virtually means nothing. My favorite Spring Training story is Brooks Conrad. Everyone was so hyped about Conrad who played as a utility infielder. He had a great camp then Conrad went on to be 0-32 in the regular season before getting DFA. It is the most clear-cut example of Spring Training not mattering too much. But some things perk your ears up from time-to-time such as the Brewers winning 7-2 and getting all of their runs against Clayton Kershaw and Trevor Bauer.
Kershaw gives up back-to-back home runs to Wong & UrĂas on the first 4 pitches of the game [full at-bats] from r/Brewers
Milwaukee led off the game yesterday with two home runs. Kolton Wong hit one out then Luis Urias also sent one deep. They ended up putting five runs on Kershaw in the first four innings of the game. Jackie Bradley Jr. had a big single in the third inning to add to what the Brewers’ top of the order did in the first inning. Then when Bauer came to the mound, Milwaukee was able to get two home runs off him from Luke Maile and Zach Green> Now, both will likely not be on the roster yet still to have guys hitting off Bauer feels good. Both of these pitchers are likely working on stuff, so, they’re not at 100 percent, but that will not stop me from being a touch excited about what this offense did yesterday.
Brewers will likely see either Kershaw and/or Bauer in late April when the Brewers take on the Dodgers at American Family Field in late April. It will be a good measuring stick series for the Brew Crew in the early part of the season to see how Milwaukee matches up with the best team in baseball.
