Crew slip against Cards, Haase’s 438-foot HR forces extras.
Pat Murphy displayed some anxiety again on Wednesday afternoon.
Murphy’s been coaching and managing baseball teams since 1983, and he knows how quickly a hot club can go cold. Murphy also knows how quickly a cold streak can spell doom in a short postseason series. “I haven’t loved a lot of what I’ve witnessed,” Murphy said before the Brewers played, and lost, an extra-inning game for the third time in four days, this time falling, 3-2, to the Cardinals.
In my mind we have an uphill battle, Murphy said, "It seems like we are trying to coast uphill. You can't take your foot off the gas. The whole situation can change fast."
