You know what's nice? 24 runs in 2 games.

 

Brewers! Brewers! Keep Turnin' up the the Heat!

[crewcrazy]

Hey, a non-losing season!

 

Here's to hoping the Brewers avoid a slide like the last time they hit 81 wins. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Watch out Cubs, these guys aren't going to lay down and die. Good Win!!!

[Zycho32]

It doesn't matter whether the Brewers make the playoffs or not. After this season ends, the good citizens of Milwaukee will BURN THE CITY DOWN.

[pitchleague]

absolutely spectacular night! 2 games back with 5 to play. Still huge odds, but I like 'em alot. I'm a gamblin' man!

[hawing]

Well done, Brewers. Keep it up.

 

As for Adam Dunn, I believe Bob or Jim said it was knee trouble. He's having surgery tomorrow, I think.

[PeaveyFury]

Jeff Suppan has quietly lived up to the billing of being solid in the 2nd half. 3.90 ERA in August, 4.24 in September before tonight.

THE PRINCE IS NOW THE KING !!!

He's been awesome the past couple months.

Just got home, what a game, so happy that the offense gave Suppan a lot of support. Very happy to have Bill get a homer and standing O. Even happier to see Prince get two homeruns and two curtain calls. Not to mention the MVP chants were going, as they should be. Great game.

[hawing]

Man, I'd go to every remaining game if my work schedule permitted it. Three games this week doesn't seem enough!

Just read the entire thread after coming home from the game. What an honor it was to be present for those historical 8 1/2 innings. I have never heard a crowd at Miller Park so loud and I have gone to a lot of games...that said, this crowd was barely 32,000 strong. I left my voice in section 220. Suppan was superb. There was never a doubt about the pitching all night (even Spurling). The crowd was on the umpire crew too. When the Cubs lost, the crowd was louder than any of the 3 curtain calls. We believe.

 

Run the Table !!! Two Down - Five to Go

[SeriesFinale]

Can someone at the game tell me what song they played at the end? Dream On? I'm a Believer?

[windiv07]

I don't remember a song being played at the end. We were all singing about Suppan bringing about the end of the 7th inning jinx, though. Many very negative things came to an end last night.

[stoops17]

Didn't hear the song, sorry, was heading for the parking lot. I did notice at least 5 different people wearing Cubs paraphenalia, which I don't get? Are they baseball fans that come to Miller Park to see a baseball game? Or are they just coming to start trouble and try to gloat about their place in the standings? Either way, thanks for the ticket purchase, but go home

Most of them are there to start trouble. I've meet a few cool Cub fans, dish out a little mocked scorne and then talk baseball. But the vast majority have been the trouble starter kind.

 

[pretendastronaut]

Ya I didn't hear a song really at the end either. The crowd was pretty impressive, especially considering it was a good 10k+ short of full.

 

I also wanted to note about the curtain call for Hall, while yes, it wasn't for a super deserving performance, I think it was more that, at the time, it felt like a statement I guess. There was a great energy in the park when Billy did that.

 

I have to say, I've been at the past two games, and the energy in the park has been amazing. I'm tempted to go again tonight, just because its been so much fun. The crowd has really been showing its love for this team, and the guys are obviously not disappointing.
