Milwaukee Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy, who hit his 40th double of the season Sunday, has a chance to become the first catcher in the modern era (since 1900) to lead a league in two-baggers
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy, who hit his 40th double of the season Sunday, has a chance to become the first catcher in the modern era (since 1900) to lead a league in two-baggers
The Milwaukee Brewers go all right-handed tonight as they open a two-game interleague series against the Toronto Blue Jays at Miller Park.
Jonathan Lucroy starts at first base ...
He got 2 more doubles tonight, to add to his totals... 2-4 on the night with 2 runs scored and an RBI. AND an outstanding diving stop at first base. The announcers were drooling over their regular catcher at first... ;-)
Thanks to his breakout 2014 season, Jonathan Lucroy is quickly supplanting Ryan Braun as the face of the Milwaukee Brewers franchise.
Before his overturned positive PED test in 2012 and suspension as a result of the Biogenesis scandal last year, it would’ve been unimaginable that anybody would pass Braun as the franchise’s most valuable player. After all, Braun – who signed a contract extension in April 2011 to keep him with the team until 2020 – appeared to be the long-awaited successor to Robin Yount in Milwaukee, a Hall of Fame-caliber player who spent his entire career in the smallest market in baseball.
And they could not find a better face without doubt.
What a beast.
Holy cow!
Luuuuuuuuc!!!!
We could have a HF'er in the making here. If his career continues like it is, he will have the numbers to be inducted.....I will be looking down, hopefully not up and say, "I knew that guy"......
