Brewers now 6 games up on the Cubs!

[willie key]

Cubs.    

[treego14]

And the Cubs lose ... we are up 6 games on them now!

[willie key]

I still hate that call on the bases where they come off the base for a centimeter.   There has to be a better way to call that

[82brewcrew82]

But.....but....but the Baby Bears hit more homers and...and...and strength of schedule and...and....and....small market Brewers and.........its just not fair!

The weakness of using an oven mitt. You can't grab the bag.

Dang, they pinch hit for PCA late. Chourio would never...

[wibadgers23]

And now the Cubs head to Toronto for a 3 game series.

Watching the cubs game and espn is interviewing the center fielder while the game is going on.   Who approved this.   Why the hell should I have to talk about Craig counsell job while I’m playing center field 

Would you rather they put the mic on Counsell?

"Ummmmm, well yeah, no................."😁

He's hitting like .190 against lefties.

No I get it... I'm just saying a certain fan base swore him to be the MVP leader in May and now he is giving up his most important at bats.

[willie key]

Pca getting pinch hit for in the ninth down a run screams mvp

[greenlawler]

The way the Crew won these last three games is so epic......

 

Game 1: The throw home from Perkins

Game 2: Pitch clock violation then homer by Contreras and then check swing strike on Soto

Game 3: Walk off in the bottom of the ninth

Yeah this kind of struck me, too. I know he's not hitting against lefties but the whole vibe with him from tonight vs other of these interviews that ESPN does felt different. Not great body language from him.

Yup.  No MVP leader is ever getting pinch hit for.

When you don't need to throw ONE STRIKE to get PCA out.  It's hard for that person to shake a slump. LOL. The Next Joey Wiemer. 

[narwhalattack]

It's beautiful.

They were at 94-63 in 1982. They lost four in a row to make the last game of the year a winner take all game against the Orioles.
