watching that pat Murphy interview with Dan Patrick, I know it's not a big deal but it kinda rubs me the wrong way that murphy insists misiorowski isn't even close to the best pitcher in baseball. Says he's not on the same level as Skubal, Wheeler, Yamamoto, etc... like dude is the Cy Young winner this year and is on YOUR team.

Postgame shows for the 4-3 Game Two win over the Rays:

Via SportsRadio the Fan's Post Game Show w/ Tim Allen and Aaron Morse 

Via WTMJ's Postgame Show with Dom Cotroneo - "After trailing 4-0 after one inning, the doubts may have crept in. But these Brewers aren't fazed. Milwaukee immediately put two on the board in the next frame and came back thanks to a Sal Frelick home run and a Cooper Pratt single to take the lead. And of course, the bullpen was once again nails. The Brewers hold a 2-0 lead in the WORLD SERIES as this series now shifts to Tampa Bay. Dom and Jerry Augustine attempt to break down a wild marathon of a game and capture the emotion from inside American Family Field."

Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "Two wins away from glory. The Brewers once again followed a familiar formula: Down early, defensive miscue, rally anyway, a dash of power and incredible work from the bullpen. For the second straight night, the team won a one-run World Series game, a 5-4 victory that required a rally back from a 4-0 deficit in the first. Special guest Tom Haudricourt, a longtime beat reporter at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the surreal circumstances of being so close to a title. Plus: Aaron Ashby shoves again, Sal Frelick (!!) homers, Cooper Pratt atones for an earlier misplay and the Brewers, yet again, find a way."

Postgame shows for the 10-1 Game Three win over the Rays:

As of Tuesday AM, there are plenty of interview clips on the Brewers' site video page.

Via SportsRadio the Fan's Post Game Show w/ Tim Allen and Evan Heffelfinger 

Via WTMJ's Postgame Show with Dom Cotroneo - "The Brewers moved a step closer to winning their first ever World Series after a 10-1 win over the Rays. Dom recapped the win during Brewers Extra Innings and took your calls."

AUDIO option via "Brewer Territory" with Corey Knebel and JP Feyereisen: "Corey and JP react to the Brewers Crushing the Rays in Game 3. The Brewers are 27 outs from a World Series Championship."

Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "The next win will give the Milwaukee Brewers a World Series title for the first time in franchise history. A 10-1 beatdown at Tropicana Field in Florida allowed Milwaukee to finally breathe easy on its run of postseason nail-biters, with an historic eight-run rally in the fifth and a pitching staff (led by Robert Gasser) that faced the minimum through eight. To top it all off, Brandon Woodruff made his way back to the mound and appeared in a World Series game, a feel-good finish on a night with huge Milwaukee fan presence in St. Petersburg. The Tampa Bay Rays could still do something no other team has done in the history of baseball, and that's rally back from a 3-0 series deficit. Absent that, Milwaukee, you will have your first World Series crown."

Postgame shows for the 4-3 Game Four loss to the Rays:

As of Wednesday AM, there are interview clips on the Brewers' site video page.

Via SportsRadio the Fan's Post Game Show w/ Tim Allen and Aaron Morse 

Via WTMJ's Postgame Show with Dom Cotroneo - "My oh my. It looked like the celebration was going to be on after Cooper Pratt went deep in the top of the 12th to give the Brewers the lead. Then, Shane Drohan came on and did not record an out as the Rays scored two for the win. Dom and Jerry Augustine debate whether Jacob Misiorowski should have been used in the 12th to shut down the win over Drohan and much more about this thriller of a game."

Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "Game 4 wasn't nearly as fun as the first three. Host JR Radcliffe gives a quick spin through a heartbreaking extra-inning loss to the Rays, a 4-3 setback after Cooper Pratt's home run gave the Brewers the lead in the top of the 12th. Milwaukee's bullpen all showed up but leaves the team taxed for a Game 5 contest less than 24 hours later. Errors play a big role yet again, although David Hamilton atoned for his with his second postseason home run. It all set the stage for Cooper Pratt to be the unlikely hero, but the Brewers couldn't seal the deal behind Shane Drohan. There are plenty of good signs to suggest it's just delaying the inevitable, though it does keep the Brewers from making history as the first team to sweep best-of-7 championship series and World Series. But Jacob Misiorowski is on deck."

AUDIO via "Foul Territory": "The Rays fight to see another game at the Trop. We dissect what we saw from the third game of this series that’s been decided by one run. Cooper Pratt put on a show, but were there any other scenarios to put the Brewers in a better pitching spot in the 12th? Props to the Rays for answering. What’s their plan to slay the Miz in Game 5?  Hosts: Todd Frazier, Erik Kratz, Scott Braun"

William Contreras is World Series MVP. Cooper Pratt was sensational. Brice Turang, Jacob Misiorowski and Trevor Megill all shined. Aaron Ashby and Jackson Chourio were huge in the series.
