BREWERS GET BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN! Abner was impressive! Future closer right there!

[Fear The Chorizo]

Thank goodness the Brewers found a way to salvage their fading hopes to finish the season with a winning record by getting win #82, with a week to go in August, and only lost 2.5 games in the standings tonight against an idle Cub juggernaut by lucking into this win.

Nice play by Abner, that was no gimme.  

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Winning season!

Uribe is such a guy you'd hate if he wasn't on your team 😂 

[adambr2]

I can almost see the “Uribe just doesn’t have that closer mentality” that someone had prepped to hit “submit reply” on and are currently holding down the delete button. 

[RobertCrawley]

That's one. Let's sweep these guys.

Post the banner, Ed!!

But have you seen the Cubs schedule? 65-0 this year against teams under .500 so just close it down now. No point to any of it.

Let's hope he locks into good form and repeats the whole night.

[Nola Beery]

Ok, I'm back. And we won while I was away! Good thing I'm not superstitious.

[brooks_quichenick]

Great play from Abner to end it, and I love the celebration haha. This team having fun and playing with some swagger is good.

Yep season is over no chance at a division title or the #1 or #2 seed in the playoffs.  Just absolutely over we must pack it in and call it a season.

Yay

It’s amazing how there are countless responses to something nobody said.

If a pitcher leaves with an inherited runner on at 1st (in this case, Ashby), and is relieved, and the next batter reaches on a fielders choice, with the inherited runner retired, if the runner who reached on the FC ended up scoring, which pitcher would that run be charged to?

I’m not going to scroll ahead to,see if anyone else addressed this, but the answer is that the run is charged to the pitcher who put the original runner on base.

I love his recent skip after he completes an inning!
