Thwarted By the Thracians

Man, who would've thought 1 week ago that the Brewers would outlast the Cubs in the playoffs??

It seems like Yo pitching on 3 days rest would be more dicey if he had succombed to an arm or shoulder injury, as is the case with most pitchers. I realize that knees/legs are important to pitchers, but I think it's just not quite as risky as might might outwardly seem.

Hey, Sunday's game is on WGN! Did no one else notice this? http://www.wgnamerica.com/cubsschedule.html

Brew Crew Magic Number over the Phils is 13! If the Brewers can even manage a split in Philly, it will be 9!!

I'm guessing that was supposed to be blue? I can't watch the game, but I hope Torres got booed mightily.

At least Gagne only gave up one run! Great success!

How many pitches was CC on?

Ryan Church pinch hitting for Robinson Cancel?! Is Yost aware that it is within the rules to PH for a catcher?!

If the Brewers are being so controversial, why aren't other market's reporters complaining? Seriously, what media market outside of St. Louis even gives a crap about the Brewers untucking their shirts? This is the first major outcry I've heard/read all year. It seems that outside Milwaukee no one seems to care. Except for St. Louis I guess.

Thanks. I was pretty sure there were 2 outs, so the fielders choice thing was very baffling.

Okay, please explain what happened w/Pujols and the Brewers scoring for those of us who aren't following on TV or radio. Thanks.

Does anyone know the format for the Sally League playoffs? I'm wondering what the odds of seeing West Virginia coming back down here to Augusta in the postseason.

Ahem, I believe they are Badger Mutual Insurance runs.

Adam J? I had no idea that Pacman Jones was such a vehement Brewers blog participant.

Hey, I'm not really an expert on Minor League baseball. How do you project rotations, especially after the all-star break? WV plays at Augusta, GA (where I live) at the end of the month and if you ignore the break, it would appear that Jeffress would miss that 4 game series. Is it possible that the rotation could be juggled to keep people on the normal 5 days rest, or are they usually strict about getting people regular cyclical work? With a 4-game series, you'd think I'd have an 80% chance to see him. Any slight rotation adjustment would work in my favor . . .
