ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Let’s discuss how the Brewers hit.

Because I believe it is the engine to how they play — relentlessly.

Through two games at least, this has not been the World Series previewed: two teams that play the game pristinely. The Rays were particularly defective on both sides of the ball, including making four outs on the bases.

And it is not as if the Brewers were producing a Tom Emanski video. While fewer, they still erred on the bases, in the field and mentally. They had two faux pas that if you closed your eyes you might insist Aaron Boone be fired by proxy.
