I am trying to look at this from a logic based standpoint that the odds are still very much in our favor, and not from the standpoint of a jaded Wisconsin sports fan.
But, I did that when we were up 21-3 on the Bears, too.
We should still feel very good about where we are at. But no one in that locker room should feel comfortable until that 4th win, and every game should be played to win.
There is no “it’s okay if we lose tonight because then we can close it back in Milwaukee”. No, finish this whenever the opportunity prevents itself. Every time you don’t is breathing life back into the Rays.
There is no reason for us to panic, but there is also no reason for us to pretend this series is already won. 3-1 is not insurmountable. Ask the Cubs.
