Mets (Manaea) vs Brewers (Montas): 10/2/24, 6:38pm

Feels like a must-win game.

[treego14]

The season is on the line, and Frankie will shine!

There is no panacea for Manaea!

The Brewers will win the next two games as the Mets go up in flames!

Winker is still a Stinker!

[Underachiever]

I was there last night, and will be there again. You should be there, too.

Brewers might want to win this one

We're finally in Must Win territory.

[willie key]

And in the future get rid of the totally inorganic tag lines.      If something just pops up in a grass roots kind of way and the team and fans latch onto something that encapsulates a season then go for it

Let’s face it 

undaunted sucks.     Get rid of the saying  tonight in some sort of faux sacrifice and we go on to win the World Series 

[ClearWaterWI]

 They still won’t lose 4 in a row!  Ok, I’ll show myself out.

I don't agree with you much, but amen to all of this.

Twitter's algorithm fed me Shane Victorino's grand slam to get me in the "mood" for today. That was 16 years ago today apparently.

That’s too bad.  Because I do agree with you on the booing yesterday.   I don’t think the brewers deserve to be booed this year.   And I do think that actually was counter productive.   The team went into a shell   They need to be tougher than that because they are professionals    But also human 

 

let’s hope they find some way to pull their heads out of their you know what    Because this series isn’t over yet

 

[RobertCrawley]

Didn’t hear the booing. That’s BS to boo this team.

I thought both Payamps and Ashby looked like a deer in the headlights last night. Combined giving up 5 runs in less than one inning.  .2 to be exact.  I guess the moment was to big for them.  It cost us dearly. I hope the Brewers have the resilience to come back today. Because I do think we are better than the Mets. 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

We got people worked up over a dumb slogan and coming up with all sorts of reasons why this keeps happening. The truth is that it just isn't that hard to lose 2 baseball games.

[RobertCrawley]

Playoff baseball is different than regular season baseball. Some players are up to it, and some aren’t. Our guys need to dig deep and find their best.

Yesterday was the first time they encountered real adversity this season after cruising in first place for 5 1/2 months. They didn't respond well, lost their usual good approach at the plate. We'll see who digs deep today.

I've learned over the years to be a fan of the Brewers, you really have to enjoy the journey and not worry too much about the destination. 

That used to be fine, but after so much of it, it's really becoming more of a struggle for me. I really hope they can win today. 

[Thurston Fluff]

I'm hiding under my bed until it's over. Nothing else worked so I might as well try it.

[MDCrew]

I would have like to see Civale start today and use Ross yesterday. Hopefully we can get some runs early and take some pressure off Montas. Bullpen has to be much better today.

LOL, I will try changing my clothes every inning the Brewers don't score. 

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Interesting pitching matchup tonight. Which former Oakland A's standout starter will prevail?

[liveforoctober]

I took a half day and got a ticket. I will be at the proverbial village gate to fight if this is indeed it.

If we live until tomorrow, will likely do the same. 

Not until the fat lady...

[Jim French Stepstool]

A week or two ago I mentioned on here what type of game I expect it to be, for us to have our best chance in the postseason. Of the four games yesterday, all of them were that type of game--except ours. Even with the offense going to sleep midway through (and Severino settling in had something to do with that), we didn't make two plays--one somewhat tough & the other spring training basic--that cost us five runs. Lean on the pitching and defense. Dance with what brung ya. Last night we danced with two left feet.

Perkins will be in the lineup; he's hit LHP recently. And Sanchez; this is the stage for an experienced, veteran bat to show up.

I think Montas will have success IF he locates the FB well.

If they win, best to stay under there as long as the team is still alive. We will bring you meals and a chamber pot.

I have no problem booing bad results at a professional game!

Booing at amateur events is a No-No in my book!
