I think this is one where no one is happy about it. Packers had multiple chances to put this one to bed. Vikings just needed a chipshot in OT. No one should like this. I said when they went to 10 minute overtimes that I hated it because it was going to make ties a lot more common again. Not so much last season but already ties in both weeks through Week 2 this year.

The Pirates had nothing to play for either and did just fine. Having something to play for is overrated when trying to predict results IMO. Sometimes there's something to be said for playing spoiler and able to go out and play relaxed. That said hopefully the Diamondbacks can get the job done because the way the Cubs are playing there's no reason they can't take 2.
-
Well, it's definitely a long shot but the Cubs did lose today, so no ground was lost there. So I'd say it's no more over than it was yesterday.
-
Classic Brewer tease. Give up a late run, then rally for one short.
-
Moose is another guy who is just not doing a whole lot.
-
Braun needs to start stepping up. It's September. Come on, man.
-
Too late in the season to be losing home series matchups to teams like the Pirates if you're serious about winning the division.
-
For as much as we lament about the unfair advantage for large markets in baseball, college sports are no better. Teams with top programs like Alabama and Ohio State get their pick of the 4 and 5 star recruits every year, while programs like ours pick up the scraps. Same in basketball with teams like Duke and Kentucky.

I should rephrase, Scooter destroys us lately.
-
I really don't mind if we only get a WC, but having to win an elimination game basically just to even get in sucks. If we have no shot at the division heading into the last 2 games, Hader, Jeffress, and Knebel all need to be all off limits. We need to get those guys 3 days off and make sure we have all hands on deck and be prepared to use the pen for 6 or 7 innings if needed.
-
Six innings to score at least one run against Nova and that pen. Pirates have a good pen.
-
What a tease.
-
No chance Kratz bats this inning, right?
-
Ok, now how about a big fly?
-
Good start to the 9th. How about a big fly?

Well, this certainly qualifies as a stinker. Particularly with everyone else winning (except maybe the Rockies). #1 goal is securing a playoff birth. Cardinals getting destroyed by the Dodgers helps that. Rockies losing helps that. Arizona is down late, which helps. If the goal is the division, obviously the Cubs losing sucks. But I don't see a lot of harm otherwise. Heck, even the Braves lost, which helps in the overall record department. I thought we wanted the DBacks to win so they still have fight when they play the Cubs. Seriously though, I'm not too worried about anyone besides us or the Cubs. Only team that can keep us out of the #1 WC at this point is ourselves. Only us and the Cubs can keep us from winning the division. Falling back to 2.5 out hurts, no doubt. Hopefully we can pick it back up tomorrow.

I thought pulling Davies when he did was a pretty deft move when he probably could have left him in another inning. His choice of relief pitcher left a bit to be desired, though. I would have PH for Kratz. The pen moves I thought were fine. Not going to win this game with 1 run anyway. On a deeper level I would like to know why Kratz is getting so much PT.
-
Unfortunately the reality is that Yelich and Cain are not going to come through every time for us. We really need other guys to step up and for the most part they just really haven't.
-
Good patience Eric.
-
PH then the top of the order coming up. If you're going to make a move it's probably going to have to be now. Not a good pitching matchup tomorrow either.
-
I wouldn't have stuck with Kratz there. But guy on 3rd no one out, him and Moose got to find a way to at least put it on the ground or into the outfield. Shouldn't be a lot to ask.
-
Schoop was an odd call there as well. Just a piss poor inning offensively and a wasted shot.
-
For whatever reason, they seem to treat this guy as better than he is.
-
Just terrible ABs by Moose and Kratz.
-
Moose, again, chasing in the dirt. Come on man, we can't waste the leadoff double.
