I see your back with your positive takes. 

If someone is going to lose after 0-3, a game like this would be the lynchpin. Just a horrific way for that game to end.

There's going to be a lot of anger, blame, second-guessing, and 20-20 hindsight. Let's dust ourselves off, embrace where we are, and get them tomorrow for the series win.

Drohan got a bunch of ground balls that were either misplayed, found holes, or turf hopped over everyone.

It is what it is, on to tomorrow.

Miz has been shaken up early in all of his starts. I don't know why he is everyone's surefire answer there especially if we're considering after there's a guy on base. If he lets an inherited runner score, we lose, he can't start Game 5 and possibly 6 that is a decision that sends Murphy to the guillotine. We can't pretend like that was a reasonable decision to make with a 3-0 lead. You consider that at 3-2 with him slated to start Game 7. There's no way any responsible manager throws Miz out there tonight. 

He literally hasn’t given up a run in the playoffs in the first inning. 

He's still throwing 103-104, he’s dispatching the bottom of the Rays order with relative ease without relying too much on the defense and we’re celebrating right now.

Do you honestly believe the Rays will now win 3 more in a row?

If the offense looks like this it is absolutely possible.

The Brewers offense doing nothing most of the night is the true culprit here, Your have to use your stud relievers just keeping a game tied is just not the path to success. Needed to score runs and they just couldn't do it.

The Brewers offense was SMOKING the ball all over the place. 

We had like 18 of the 21 hardest hit balls going into that last half inning. 

Got Mis on regular rest tomorrow. Go out and show 'em why you're the ******* Cy YOUNG winner....

Worst case is he throws like 20 pitches and if he gives up a run you go with Drohan and he pitches game 6

 

You need to play Miz as though the series will go 7 games and he appears as many times as possible if that happens. That means tomorrow, and bullpenning a Game 7.

That’s a deflating of a loss as there is.

Being eliminated in Game 7 would be worse. We live to play tomorrow.

Plus Miz is no ace right now.   He’s basically a four inning pitcher

Feel like Murphy's short sighted pitching management earlier in the game came back to bite us in the 12th. Only using JoJo for 3 outs and only using Megill for 1 out both in tie game scenarios. 

This is definitely true.  Letting Megill pitch another inning pushes the rest of relievers back an inning and we probably win.

[Bernies Sponsor]

Bauers cannot under any circumstances be allowed to hit second tomorrow. Inclined to say he shouldn't be in the lineup given his non-existent bat and sub-par defense, but Tampa doesn't really have any lefties for Vaughn to punish.

We get it. he almost quit, his wife got pregnant, and he had a great series against LA. but he's played like sh*t since then and is a liability

We may need him tomorrow nite.

Using Trevor for one batter was a bigger one

What part of the Brewers this season makes you think they will lose four in a row?

We need three outs for the title and we treat it like a mid freaking july game and put our crap relivers out there for the save????? Miz, Henderson, whoever, you put your best pitcher out there.

I mean, tonight is probably a better example for not being thrilled to see Drohan on the roster.

I wanted Patrick over Woodruff to have somebody who is physically capable of going multiple innings.

oh he is? I'm glad you know that's how it would have happened, lol. I'm sure you wouldn't be the first guy calling for Murphy's head if he came in and lost the game.

Unless Trevor gives up a Homer to Aranda or Hicks

We'll find out Saturday I guess.

The Wisconsin sports PTSD is real and holy hell am I feeling it. 

To be so close and lose like that is so deflating. 

[wiguy94]

I truly think they win that game if Ortiz doesn't botch the most routine play you'll ever see at 3B.

[Branyanisthegoat]

Crush a boatload more balls then them tomorrow too, and I feel really good theyll celebrate in Tampa.

Exactly... I'm not humbled, this isn't the "worst possible outcome," there's a LOT of hyperbole here because we didn't SWEEP the Rays in the World Series. 

And the argument for the Mis, that's hard. You're burning him for Gm5 then. 

I'll go with Mis pitching 6 shutout tomorrow over bringing him out of the pen to try and close this one out. 

Senzatela is the decision I'd have changed. GB pitcher. 

It stings, but suck it up and move on! We've got one more game left in the season.

Because I want Ortiz off the team?   Dude just go away.  We’ve had our issues.   You clearly think you’re better than everyone on this page.
