I love Bobby Diesel pitching tonight.  The only thing that scares me with him is his propensity to give up the long ball.   He needs to keep their hits inside the park tonight (thank you Mr. Obvious).  If he can do that…we’re 3-0 baby

I know it’s game 3 and we are up 2-0 but it almost feels like game 7 to me……not sure I’m going to survive if we actually do face an elimination game.

Last year by this time it was much easier……we pretty much knew it was over by game 3.

Definitely tougher when you have something to lose.

I expect the Dodgers to hit tonight. But I also have a good feeling about the win in SD breaking the seal on road victories. If we can score in the first and put pressure on...

It’s 2 hours from game time. How are we feeling? I’m nervously excited. Grilling some fajitas for my family for dinner.

Openly? Positive, optimistic. Internally? I understand people who live with... digestive issues much better. 

I just feel like we HAVE to win this game... you jumped on this team, you need to just... keep ALL the pressure on them. 

2-1 with a BP game makes me nervous... so hell, lets avoid that!

I mean... if he gives up a HR or two, I don't think that's the end of the world. It's about not giving them free passes. 

A BB and a Blast is a LOT different than... Teoscar popping one or whomever else popping one. 

Edit-I do feel pretty good about Gasser as well.

I'm nervous. Tonight feels like the difference between a quick series and one that has pretty high odds of going back to Milwaukee.

Nerves, for sure. But they are "let's seize the first opportunity and not have to feel scared about not taking the second one" nerves rather than "fear of losing" nerves.

We have two shots to really command this thing. I WANT the first one. If we don't get it, I'll feel much closer to NEEDING the second.

No fear. Fear the Beer

This feels like the Neo game.

If we can pull this one out, Gasser vs Snell, we are Morpheus watching Neo stop and drop the bullets in the hallway.

If the Dodgers prevail... the fight is on.

We'll learn a lot in the bottom of the first. If Bobby Gas is hitting the black with his sweeper, it could be a good night.

that loss by the bucks in game 3 to the raptors that year, i remember there being a really egregious charge call that went against giannis, and that was before you could challenge. Just changed the whole game and they never recovered.

What i remember most is that we watched that game and then the worst series finale in the history of TV (Game of Thrones).

 

Anywho, I have been incredibly zen this whole series.  Far more than the last one.

 

I expect the Brewers to win this series.  Last one worried me far more.

I agree with others here, this is the most important game of the series. Period. If they lose tonight, I do NOT want any part of coming back to Milwaukee up 3-2 and facing Yamamoto and Skubal again? Good luck beating one of them twice again. However, if they do win tonight, all the pressure is then off tomm night. Gasser makes me nervous, but even moreso, I just don't think they are going to hit Snell. But....if they can even somehow, someway, put up even 1 run in the first that would be huge. Put up more then 1?? That would be big time.

I could use another day of savoring the 2-0 lead. 😀

The vibe will change significantly if the Dodgers win tonight.

All we gotta do is lose a five game series 3 - 2.

I love a  guy that joined a super team saying that a team full of misfit toys might not be able to deal with adversity.

Hopefully that garbage is taped on the inside of the door that leads to the dugout.

I'm feeling oddly confident going into this one. I think gasser delivers 4.2 scoreless and the bullpen and offense handle the rest.

The thing I've learned is that whatever I think needs to happen is probably way wrong.

This is LA's game 7 so I expect them to pull out all the stops to win this one. We'll see if the Brewers can essentially end this series tonight.
