Alright bunty.  Time to make Freddy work for it

I love reading this for the first time knowing this was the first of TWO Bunty AB's in this inning. What a historic frame!!!

There have been 114 World Series entrants in the Expansion/LCS Era (since 1969), after tonight the 2026 Brewers are at a .327 batting average (2nd) | .400 OBP (3rd) | 135 wRC+ (t-5th).

If we expand it out to the 244 World Series entrants of All Time Ever (since 1903) those rankings drop all the way down to (3rd) | (4th) | (t-8th).

You guys (& gals), I think our offense might be good enough to win a World Series.

Sveumsy!! I feel as tho we are hanging out in a virtual room together. Epic stat drop. Hey, I wonder what Brandon Sproat is up to (no I don't🤭)...

Nice little game within the game tomorrow is the battle between Wild Bill and JC for World Series MVP. If they do finish this off tomorrow, I would imagine whoever has the better game 4 takes it home. It's that close.

The blowout really hurt Ashby's claim.  Fitting for a team that really plays and wins as a team that it's really hard to pick an MVP.

One comment I'd like to make: Frelick made that diving catch in the 8th, and I suspect there are a lot of fans who hated him doing that w/a ten run lead. And in a one-sided game you probably don't see effort like that in the NFL, or the NBA, or from many MLB teams. But when it's in your DNA, you do that. Always. Regardless of the scoreboard, and without thinking about it. Had he pulled up--- yeah, they still win the game. But if they had a lot of players on the roster who would go about their business in that way, we'd have been focusing on football, watching the leaves turn colors & aerating our lawns over the last month because this team wouldn't be here.

Gasser allowed everyone to breathe & relax, both in the dugout & in living rooms all across Wisconsin. Razor-thin edge over Chourio for POTG in my book.

I mean YES. He also sprinted like a cheetah around 2B, up 10-0, when Joey O popped out to shallow CF. THIS is what makes our Brewers great. 100% effort on everything in any scenario.

If they were to close it out with a close win in game 4 w/Ashby getting 7 or 8 outs, I could see him at least being in the conversation. Otherwise like @Brewcrew82said, it's probably between Chourio & Contreras.

Counterpoint:

You need to hit HRs to win in the playoffs.

You can't sustain the Brewers style of offense vs top-flite pitching like you see in October.

You need launch angle; strikeouts don't matter.

And even though there wasn’t a hint of that tonight you somehow had to make this all about that. 

Not a hint? Obviously! the Crew put the game away. When the Crew win the series it will be unreal to look back at the most enlightening posts about Chourio as TRT, Wild Bill should not be resigned, Murph is an awful manager, Sal should be left off the playoff roster, the Crew is the 4-5 best team in the NL (despite the best record), wild card or bust, Cubs taking over the division by August. No worries, don’t be a “gatekeeper “
