"(Christian Yelich) told me on the bench, straight up, it was 8-1, he said, 'We're going to win this game,'" manager Pat Murphy said. "How do you make that statement? He looked at me and said, 'we're going to win this game.' And then... it happened."
You missed going ahead in the 10th only to blow it in the bottom of the 10th
Just remember that Contreras was a Brave for a short time, and then they traded him away along with several other prospects for Matt Olson. He’s done well for the Brewers for sure.
. At this point we are just staying hopeful to make the playoffs!
Yup no doubt, they got lucky. Brewers will continue to feast tomorrow though I'm sure. Grindle today made the comment that the brewers are sharks right now and the water is full of chum.
Wasn't a great result on the score board but if you watched/listened to both games it was nothing about how they played. They hit the ball hard and just weren't finding the holes where the Cubs were. This metric is from yesterday. Look at all the Brewers batters above both the metric red lines compared to only a few cubs. Minimum AB 6.
I listened to both games off and on. They had costly errors in both games which they have been able to avoid for the most part. Brandon Wooddruff seems to have lost velocity the last 2 starts. He struggled to hit 92 with his fastball and a tight zone from the ump did not help his cause.
Yes indeed. It's two very good teams playing each other and now the big final tomorrow
I will also add on the AL side, the Detroit/Houston series felt very much like playoff baseball as well. The energy in the stadium for the walk-off 10th inning walk was like the ALCS. Here's hoping my kitties can make a deep playoff run.
