Milwaukee Brewers they closed a score of 4-0 at Chicago Dogs, to cut a string of three losses. Both benches were emptied when rescue veteran and newcomer to the big team, Brad Boxberger, hit Venezuelan catcher Willson Contreras with a pitch early in the ninth inning at Wrigley Field.
Contreras, who had already hit a ball in the helmet on Monday, started screaming and walking towards the mound, but his teammates took him to the start. The bullpens were also emptied and reached the zafarrancho area:
There was no exit on the scoreboard and the score was 1-1 when Boxberger threw a 94 mph fast ball over Willson’s humanity, which is already temperamental and bad. Boxbeger was not discouraged by Contreras’ gestures, showing seriousness in this matter, not allowing himself to be provoked.
The ball hit between the elbow and the shoulder of Contreras, who for a change went 2-0 with a walk and a left on the base, leaving his average at 0.071, the product of a miserable blow in the season.
