Brewers-Cubs NLDS Game Five Thread - 10/11/2025 @ 7:08PM - For those Assuming a WIN!

[owbc]

So proud of this team. No matter what happens we can look back fondly on what this group accomplished in a year that nobody expected them to do anything.

Ohtani and Freeman deserve Quintana and/or an opener?

[HarryDoyle]

The Cubs can now use that "Built For Fall" gear for the same purpose Frank Drebin Jr. uses his old Bon Jovi concert t-shirt.

Thank God.

Miz is an animal. Sure he went through some growing pains but he was absolutely huge twice in this series. 

Rick was correct. This was our finest hour. A wonderful moment for this city, this franchise.

It might finally be our year.

Brewers vs. Dodgers.  Ultimate David vs Goliath.

Hopefully the fans of every NL team outside of LA and Chicago are joining the Brewers army.

Chuorio is just barely old enough to drink correct?

Priester or Quintana in game 1 on Monday?

Priester. I don't want him pitching on the road if at all possible.

I am so freaking happy.

I don’t even care what happens next week. I know I will feel differently next week.

I paused the video & asked my wife to come watch the end of the game with me

I told her the exact same thing - beating the Coun$ell led Chicago Cubs was better than winning it all for me 

That said - I hope we somehow keep winning

We need a World Series championship

I'm going to guess both.  Quintana starting, Priester on call for a quick hook.

I go Quintana.  I feel like he'll be able to handle it.

Actually, perusing their reddit, minutes after losing, quite a few are pulling for us. 

[markedman5]

We have unlocked the key to getting good Miz……😎

Priester. Home game. Give him a boost to get his confidence back. We can't finish this without him playing well.

I like Quintana. The big moment won't bother him. He may give up two or three, but we'll be in the game.

I was a wreck during this game, couldn’t post live.  Just so much emotion tied into this game with facing Counsel and the Cubs, having a 2-0 lead end up in game 5.  The last out was essentially stress relief, such a huge win for the franchise.  Getting 5.2 innings from rookies in game 5 is crazy!

Bring on the Dodgers!  If we lose now I’ll be disappointed, but no where near the absolute punt in the nuts losing tonight would’ve been!

Awww man listening to Yeli talk about Uecker and choking up just pulls the heart strings. We are lucky to have Christian Yelich. 

[Brian]

Go Brewers go!

We are, but he should tell the DH to hit the baseball harder.

[Bulldogboy]

So excited. House money in truth but really feels like it could be our time. Home field feels huge for young team.

My feeling: We're in the NLCS. Since we're here, we might as well win it. We don't have anything else on the calendar.
