    I can say with as much certainty as anyone else, that Chourio would have leaped and brought the ball back from over the wall. So, instead of robbing France of a homer, the cable robbed Chourio of a moment that would have added to his legend. So, Chourio and the Milwaukee fans were the only people who got robbed. That's my story.

    I'm guessing he will be fine through the top of the first...

    Contreras: 102.8 mph, 365 ft, 40 degree launch angle. We don't need to measure France's shot when it hit the cable. Statcast has already told us that it would have only been a homer in Daikin park. I trust Chourio's judgment on fly balls, and he was running toward foul territory, not drifting back to the wall. (I would be curious to hear what Chourio would say about it; I missed it if he addresed it.)

    A 60-game season seems almost worse than no season at all. At least covid was an excuse the last time. A settlement that saves a 60-game season would show the cynical control the owners have over this process.

    The Padres were so aggressive against the Cubs that I was surprised at how patient they were against the Brewers, especially against Miz. I thought they'd come out swinging. Instead, we got that 2 hitter (Harris?) who saw 32 pitches in five at bats. His 9-pitch at-bat in the first, and 7-pitch at bat in the 3rd was huge. Padres had 14 two-strike foul balls that just wore out Miz by extending abs. Four innings, two runs is my optimistic hope for May tonight.

    Joey Votto is on MLB network with Brian Kenny right now. Man, he's a good listen. He just comped Chourio with Molitor as a batter. Talked about his stillness before swinging, quick bat once it moves. Pretty fun to listen to and consider. It was not the comp I expected. Kenny was giving him crap that Brave fans think he hates them because of some things he said during game one of the Dodger series. Votto said words to the effect of, "I played 2100 games, and the fans are wrong." He finished the interview by saying, "I got one word for the Braves fans," and he did a raspberry with a thumbs-down gesture. Good stuff. No punches pulled.

    I don't think there is a chance we see the B bullpen if they are up by any margin late. To put it in laymen's terms, there is no Chafin-proof lead today.

    Gonna be a long day. 13 hours to first pitch

    I got 4 for game 2, 3 for game six, and 4 for game 7.

    In the beginning, there was Bristol, Brabender, Harper and Krause.

    Just got home from AmFam. Yesterday’s game was a raucous celebration for three hours. Today, the tension in the stadium was real. There were some pin-drop quiet moments today that didn’t happen yesterday. Until, well, you know when. Then the place exploded. I am so grateful I got to be there. Going to bed now.

    II’m feeling pretty old today. Did not get out of the parking lot til after midnight, and got home to Madison at 1:45. Because I got there so early (5:15), I was in the front row of the parking section and had a curb in front of me, so backing out of the spot was my only option, and no one behind me was moving. I just shut it down and listened to the post-game. What a great crowd! Great night. The wait during Cable-gate was excruciating. We didn’t know what was going on, or what options were on the table. Go Brewers! I’m in attendance again today. Park is buzzing

    Padres had 14 foul balls on two-strike pitches against Miz. They did a great job of staying alive. Dustin Harris (who?) saw 32 pitches in 5 at-bats, including 9-and 7-pitch abs against Miz.

    Im here. Questioning my decision to be in my seat at 5:30, but glad to be here!

    Reddit: In postseason history, teams to win Game 1 in any best-of-five series have gone on to win the series 113 of 156 times (72.4%). In Division Series with the current 2-2-1 format, teams to win Game 1 on the road have advanced 34 of 46 times (73.9%)

    With the Wild Card round over, it is easy to see that the long ball had an outsized impact compared to the regular season. I think the biggest hit of the Wild Card round was Austin Riley's game 1 homer, and Bohm's homer in the tenth in Game 2** was right behind it. The numbers: 75 runs scored in 9 games. 8.33 average down from 8.97 in regular season (-.66 rpg) 37 runs scored on 23 homers. 49.3% of runs, compared to 40.5% in regular season (+8.8%) 23 homers in 9 games. 2.56 per game, compared to 2.26 in regular season. (+.3 per game) And yes, I know I am comparing 2429 games to 9, but that's the reality of the post-season. You don't get 162 games to smooth out the impact of homers, or wait for regression from either direction. If there are fewer runs per game scored, the impact of the home run is greater. **Removing the Manfred Man in the tenth will probably make home runs have a greater impact in extra-inning games. Teams can't bunt a guy to 3rd and score on a sac fly any more.

    Oh, I agree. I never underestimate the elite athlete's ability to feel disrespected, lol.

    Got my tickets for the NLCS this morning. So expensive. I feel like it's a lot more than last year. Around $250 per for 200 level, $189 for the 400 level!

    He's not wrong.

    87 Brewers started the season winning 20 out of 23, then lost 12 in a row, so...something something or other.

    I am trying to line up my ticket source at Rate Field for the Brewers-White Sox WS. White Sox putting it to the Astros in Game 2.

    Cubs are going to screw the Brewers by laying down for SD
  24. Underachiever
    On to game three! Go Sox! Hoping that Durbin, Monasterio, and even Jahmai Jones succeed on the team. If they do well, maybe Boston does another trade with the Brewers.

    Taylor hadn't pitched more than 40 pitches in an appearance. He goes 54 over 2.1 in game one of the playoffs. Nice work!
