2018-08-24: Pirates (Musgrove) at Brewers (Miley) 7:10 PM CDT [Brewers win, 7-6 in 15 innings -- Crazy 3-Run Comeback Walk-Off Win]

[Bulldogboy]

Win probability had to be zero at one point. Wow.

[bigredrobbo]

We had no cheese in the house, so I had to make do with just toast with my tea! Worth it - what a finish!!!

[trwi7]

Lol people thought it would end differently after Jeffress blown save. Pirates have scored 2 runs in last 20 games. This team has multiple leads at home. Season over.

 

I am not a big fan of gloating, but it feels very, very appropriate in this instance!

 

Yep, they're done LOL

You just really can’t overstate how improbable this win was. Wow.

 

And how important. To burn your entire pen, blow a 4 run lead, you're in a pennant race, morale wise it would have just been a devastating loss, but it wasn't.

Hope Chacin is ready to throw 140 pitches tomorrow if need be.

[Matt Breen]

Two out hits/walk from Kratz, Arcia and Lyles.

 

That's just weird.

 

And cool. We needed that.

[pacopete4]

I am so glad I stayed for that. Wanted to bounce a couple of times.

[Eye Black]

I am just going to say kudos to those that stayed up to watch, this is one I won’t soon forget. It wasn’t a lot of fun for the 13 middle innings, but boy were the 1st and bottom of the 15th ever fun.

[dlk9s]

After you walk the pitcher, give up a two-run single to Kratz, and then the walk-off single to Arcia, you have to just retire, right?

[owbc]

I still don't know what to say. Mentally it was already in the loss column with 99% certainty, 100% after Braun struck out.

[NYChez]

After flipping between the Packers and Brewers games, after Lyles scored a Brewer tossed his yellow hat on the field, and I thought the run was going to be negated by a holding call.

[And That]

[pacopete4]

So will this be one of those games when we make the playoffs by one game that we look back at?

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I am so glad I stayed for that. Wanted to bounce a couple of times.

 

At least you won't have to fight traffic.

[young guns]

If Kratz went 0-50 to finish the year I'd still be happy with him if he parked one here.

Can he still go 0-50? Asking for a kratz.

[bjkrautk]

...I just want to have something time-stamped to prove I stayed up to watch the full game!

[sveumrules]

WPA graph for the game...

[dlk9s]

I would go back and quote the poster that wrote that the Brewers always mail it in, but there are too many pages to sift through.

There needs to be Brewerfan.net bumper stickers, like the "I closed Wolskis" ones!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Lol people thought it would end differently after Jeffress blown save. Pirates have scored 2 runs in last 20 games. This team has multiple leads at home. Season over.

 

If you are just waiting for the most opportune time to "rub it in" on fans who still have a glimmer of hope, you are accomplishing your mission.

 

I’m sadly realistic. Not rubbing it in. Best team for half the year and lost lol .

 

Now it would be an appropriate time to lol

[PinaMadness]

After you walk the pitcher, give up a two-run single to Kratz, and then the walk-off single to Arcia, you have to just retire, right?

He didn't have an ugly arm tattoo to distract our offense.

[KeithStone53151]

I closed my computer about an inning before the pirates scored. Going back and reading 10 pages worth of brewer fan emotions in this game was really something. This has to be the most improbable victory I've ever seen. Go scoreless for 13 innings and score 3 runs to win after the pirates finally score 2...with lyles/kratz/arcia basically winning the game. So wild

[SomewhereInTime]

That might be the most incredible extra inning win in my lifetime, I can't think of another one where they were down more than one run in extras and came back to win

[phnxcrew]

If they don't go on a tear now, i don't know when they would. The last pitcher available scores the winning run. WOW. Let's stomp the reds and pirates and win the division.

[PinaMadness]

I don't care we won the game, never score four runs in the first inning ever again. I'd prefer a 1-2-3 inning on three pitches before that.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

We aren't allowed to be happy, though. The Packers lost.
