That pup Monasterio!!!

Funny how affections change. I liked the Wallbangers, but I couldn't really love any AL team (including Toronto) because of the DH. I had a lukewarm "default" affection for the Dodgers going waaaaayyyy back. And I even thought I preferred LA in 2018. But this guy, Tom, a big Brewers fan from WI, sat next to me in choir. We'd sneak peeks at the phone to check on the game. He converted me during that series, and I was impressed with the fight the Brewers put up, so I was sorry the Brewers lost. After that, I thought I needed to "make a commitment" to a team. Milwaukee was now in the NL, and the DH didn't matter anyway. Plus... the mascot made beer! It was a no-brainer; I made a deliberate decision to rejoice and suffer with the Brewers -as I have done. 😆🙁 It's a bit like when I moved to New Orleans in '78 when the Saints were terrible (as they will this year): I decided THIS is my NFL team, come hell or highwater (no pun intended on today's dark Katrina anniversary.)

CONFESSION: The Blue Jays are my second favorite team. For reasons not worth explaining, I was a Montreal Expos fan from the 1970's until they went to DC. Toronto gradually became a form of replacement because, well, I like Canada, for more reasons not worth explaining. I'd love for this series to be a preview of the World Series. But rest assured that I would be cheering for the Brewers all the way, just like I will be tonight. <end of confession>

Yeah. If only it worked that way!
-
The bullpen (plus a couple of great catches) gave us a chance to overcome Q's awful start. But our plan b bats were not good enough.
-
No. This team might disappoint, but they're not boring! Though... if they're going to lose, I'd rather it be boring.
-
I don't think Seigler should pinch hit for anyone ever.
-
Bughghgh! Where are the bats?!??!
-
The pitching stabilized. We've gotten a couple of defensive gems. But now we can't get hit with RISP. Baseball is cruel.
-
But hey, we're still scrapping.
-
I hope Seigler is worth more than that! .....not sure yet.....
-
My take for the past couple of years was that a typical Brewers loss was 2-1: good pitching, no hitting. Lately it seems like a typical loss is no pitching and not quite enough hitting.
-
Same here. I don't quite have the nerve to listen to the MLB audio.
-
Maybe the d-backs will get fatigued from all the running around the bases... Oh yeah, they don't even have to run. N/M
-
Maybe he's sarcastically grateful that it's all but impossible to make an error when it's called? :-/
-
Can't blame Fedde that we failed to get runs. Pathetic.
-
Monasterio is like a puppy. Full of energy and does a few delightful things. Then he poops on the living room carpet.
-
Last night we won despite poop-noodle pitching. Maybe tonight we win despite crummy batting?
-
Sometimes baseball breaks your heart. But I still love it. (Not so much right now, but....)
-
Not too keen on a sac bunt with 1 out. Please let me be wrong.
-
Hard smack by Vaughn, but nichts!
