  1. I mean, I didn't think it was controversial that playoff baseball had a cruel streak, it being a very prone to variance, but, hey, learn something new every day.
  2. Baseball is so so cruel. Your team is built on pitching, and one bad performance in a year of amazing ones puts you in an awful spot. Offense going to have to win this one.
  3. Gotta go put up a zero. We're still in a good spot. Just need Burnes to be real sharp these next two frames.
  4. Man if Turang could just get on and make the lefty pitch to TT
  5. Well...marginally, maybe this helps you out tomorrow. DBacks pen going to have to cover 6+ if they win.
  6. Man. Just couldn't wait back long enough. Got himself out there, I gotta say. Hacked at two bad pitches early.
  7. Donaldson, you're a vet. Everyone in the stadium knew you were hacking first pitch! Come on, man. Make up for it, dude.
  8. I really give the DBacks hitters credit. They are putting together a lot of good ABs. As good as Burnes looked through 2, he had to work hard to get there.
  9. Pitch count creeping up for Burnes too. Needs to get efficient fast, or he's not getting through six.
  10. Yeah...You have to figure either he's coming out early, or the Brewers are in the 5-6 run range. Either way, a good start.
  11. Getting to the point where the DBacks are really going to have consider going to the pen here soon. Love to see that. Make them think about it at least.
  12. That dude is fun. When he connects, boy is it pretty.
  13. I sort of like the bunt from Turang there. He's good at it. Make them make a play. Little better bunt would have been nice, though.
  14. Let's go. Good ABs, drive up the pitch count, put some runs on the board!
  15. Contreras needs to run into the hitter there. Gotta at least try to throw that one when he's swinging across your throwing path.
  16. Game 5 of that 2011 series is the one where it all went wrong for me. You get a great performance from Randy Wolf in Game 4 and basically steal one to even the series, and then Greinke's going in Game 5. He gives up a run in the second, but then Hairston boots an easy play, and it's 3-0 instead of 1-0, and the Brewers are toast. I've basically been reliving playoff trauma all week to try to...I don't know. Process it as an act of radical acceptance or whatever. Nothing that can happen in this series will break my heart as much as 2011 or 2018 (watching Chris Taylor turn a pretty sure out into a sure hit only to make it an out again is just the pain that will never go away), so there's that, at least.
  17. I watched enough years of bad baseball to know that you never take a postseason gameday for granted. The build-up, the excitement, the abject terror of defensive half-innings, there's nothing else in sports that compares. So, enjoy it. Enjoy it in all its horrific, painful glory. The Brewers won the division. They had a successful season. They're in great organizational shape, and none of that will change after this beautiful dice roll. Just getting to be part of the dance is what this sport is all about. That being said, I hope we win the whole f----ing thing.
  18. YouTubeTV has a free, 21-day trial for new users. I don't believe ESPN+ has the WC games. The YouTubeTV option also gives you the NLDS, should this series go well. Sling also has a deal where it's 20/month for its ESPN package (which will include TBS for NLDS games).
  19. I'll take Blue Jays in 2. Picking the Twins to lose until proven otherwise (Sorry, Brock...I assure I am rooting for the Twins, just feeling my wife's Minnesota sports fatalism more and more all the time). Marlins in 3 (when Miami makes the playoffs, they win the WS). Rays in 2. DBacks in 3. We're good. We're probably better. I just think the DBacks can win in more ways. The Brewers have a TON of pressure on them Game 1. The DBacks can lose Game 1, get a low-scoring win Game 2, and then be in the driver's seat. I hope I'm wrong. I'll be all-in emotionally no matter what.
