Lots of Hits, Poor Timing
The Brewers defeated the Rangers Sunday night 9-6 in twelve innings. Milwaukee knocked out twenty two hits, which seems like a lot for just nine runs. Six of those runs came via the homer, the most important being Jenkins three-run shot in the twelfth. But otherwise, the Brewers were 3 for 17 with runners in scoring position.
The Day by Day Database goes back to 1957, and it that time there are 245 games in which a team picked up at least 22 hits. This is only the eighteenth time a team with at least that many hits scored nine runs or less.
