    Well? Did the thread do the job like in games one and two? Or did the fans do the Scrooge McDuck thing from Cubs fans because they’d rather go to the Badger game? inquiring minds want to know!
  2. pitchleague
    I wondered if you were there. Congratulations! A hell of a ballgame!
  3. pitchleague
    This game is now in “all-timer” territory. It has certainly earned the moniker. Just a great game and another reason that baseball is the best!
  4. pitchleague
    No doubt! Both teams have been nails. i really really hope tomorrow isn’t anywhere close to this stressful. 10-2 Brewers would be just great! Please????
  5. pitchleague
    Wow!!
  6. pitchleague
    Nope, not me. This is awesome. I wish it was still like this all the time. I know I’m in the minority.

    I’m out for the night on the site*. I’m hoping that I can come in here tomorrow and read a really enjoyable game thread! Go Brewers! *-subject to change

    Well. . . . I'll go on record that I'm not a fan of Freddy pitching in tonight's game. On the road with the wind blowing "out", I guess I'd rather go bullpen game and hope to outslug/outscore the Cubs and hold Freddy for game one of the NLCS or, at worst, pitching game 5 at home where he has been pretty dominant. That said, I have to have confidence that he'll get the job done. It's just not what I would've done. That's all. Regardless, Go Brewers!!!

    Because they want that big Philadelphia market to watch the game in their prime time rather than late at night

    Sorry to say, this was inevitable due to all of the “shoulda used Priester in game 2” stuff I read the last couple of days. are those people correct? Maybe. He might’ve been just as bad. for those that were okay with Priester today, playoff nerves and all the hubbaballoo over Priester being a Cubs fan as a kid did not help him out at all. thankfully, it’s just the first inning. But yikes
  11. pitchleague
    Well said, and precisely the exact reason I predicted the use of Miz before the game started.
  12. pitchleague
    I hope that this is legit, but why do I feel that any Brewers fan that steps inside will be ridiculed, abused, and maybe even tarred-and-feathered? Sad that today’s culture has made me feel that the latter is more likely than the former. I wish we lived in a better world…. If legit, I wish you luck and thank you for your kindness—win or lose—in today’s society. I’ll be drinking in my living room in Arizona but I’ll maybe tip my hat to you into the ethersphere (is that a thing?)

    I haven’t seen anything anywhere about when Jackson “felt it again” but my speculation is that it didn’t occur on that long foul ball in the corner to end an inning, but rather on the double play grounder that Swanson threw into left field. Jackson had to side-step/hesitate step Busch to avoid getting tripped and that is when I believe that he probably “felt it”. A hesitation move like that involving some quick semi-unnatural movement would do it, I would think. But who knows?
  14. pitchleague
    I know it’s not optimal, but I could totally see Murphy using Miz after Ashby instead of Priester, solely to get him work at home rather than at Wrigley, where he might be more apt to nerves (maybe?) Or maybe he uses Miz AFTER Priester goes through the lineup once. I really don’t care and anything I speculate is just for fun; I just want to win the game. I don’t care how they get there on the mound. heck, maybe this will all become academic after we jump out to another big lead (or *gulp* the opposite)
  15. pitchleague
    Well, yes, I already know that. But why is it suddenly okay to have 13 inning games in the post-season?
  16. pitchleague
    I still don’t understand why they play with one set of extra inning rules during the season and then a completely different set in the post-season.
  17. pitchleague
    They did. I think I have it on an old video tape from 1988.
  18. pitchleague
    I believe that I recently read that they changed the K-ball rules. Before, kickers and punters could play with them just a little bit during pregame. But now, the restrictions are gone. Kickers and punters can truly break in the k-balls to their specifications during the week, warm up with them on the sideline, etc. The article went on to explain that this is why there is a rise in 55+yard field goal attempts this year and why coaches are fine with kickers trying 60+ like it’s nothing. wish I could remember where I read that, though
  19. pitchleague
    You’re not alone. I have always thought the same thing. Absolutely NONE of that video sounds like Uecker. None. yes, I seem to remember Ueck being down in the clubhouse, too.

    At least the 17 in a row in August is virtually guaranteed to not need any rain-caused doubleheaders.
  21. pitchleague
    I'm in three leagues already, but several contests (including a guillotine league). I'm game if you do it.
  22. pitchleague
    Ortiz is like the Jim Gantner (well, sorta). Meh hitter but a really good glove
  23. pitchleague
    Jansen, as well
  24. pitchleague
    Man, what a crowd on a Monday night versus the Pirates!!! Good on them, listening to Murph and getting out to the ballpark on a week night
  25. pitchleague
    I’m not sure where else to put this so I’ll put it here. Is there something going on between Brian Anderson and Bill Schroeder that they have not partnered up much at all lately? It seems that every time BA is back they’ve got Dillard or Vinny in the booth and Schroder’s nowhere to be seen and when BA is gone and Levering is in the booth there’s Bill right back again. I know that BA rips on Rock all the time making fun of him, etc. but I’ve got to wonder if it’s not just a health thing but Rock just has had enough of that and would rather work with Jeff who is nicer to him. i’m probably reading too much into this. But it’s just something I’ve noticed over the last month or so.
