““It’s been a tough series to score runs for both sides,” Counsell said. “It’s just one of those baseball things.” Does manager Craig Counsell get the sense this is becoming a source of frustration? “I think it bothers the hitters not to score runs,” he replied, “but I don’t think it has anything to do with Brandon.” Woodruff allowed three Braves runs on five hits in six innings, with one walk and seven strikeouts in a performance that followed a 4.09 ERA in four starts in September, all Brewers losses in which the team was outscored by a 24-4 margin.
