  1. We all love Charlie, but he couldn't hit for a catcher. Hence, the trade for Simmons. Moore either moves to RF or rides the bench as a backup C.
  2. Hawing is correct. My photographic memory isn't always spot on. Lorn Brown was Uecker's partner in '80 and '81. Mosley in '82 and '83. I thought they both were "meh". WISN had the radio rights in '81 and '82. Background: I was in attendance at the game. I didn't have privy to the calls until after the fact. Then I heard it was Mosley who did the ninth and it always stuck with me all these years why Ueck wasn't doing the ninth. It wasn't until the film came out last fall that I see extensive coverage of the locker room and Ueck was there for television, therefore unavailable for radio. So that is why seeing that clip on Sunday caught me by surprise. It is Mosley's voice in the posted video. My fears are confirmed. Disappointed the Brewers would do this. Also, pretty disrespectful to Dwayne Mosely.
  3. And I placed a wager on the Cowboys Wednesday. Sigh.
  4. OK, I may get flamed for this one. During the Uecker Tribute on Sunday, clips were played of his famous radio calls. One clip was the final out in '82 against the Angels. I could swear to my dying day that Loren Brown worked the radio in the ninth and Uecker was in the clubhouse working for ABC. Please tell me this isn't a case of history revisionism. If so, I will be very disappointed.
  5. #15 Cooper and upon further review, I believe #6 Sal Bando(?)
  6. Not sure if this is the right thread, but I see no other place. During the ceremony, it was mentioned twice that he stayed close to the team by throwing BP each day. My contribution. Bob Uecker finishing BP, Metropolitan Stadium, 1979.
  7. Was running a little late to the game tonight, so almost passed up on the getting my usual scorecard. But quick got one anyways thinking "what if...". And still got to my seat one second before the first pitch.
  8. Mark Ciardi. I was thinking of him Saturday when the team was going for 14. Mark Ciardi was the staring pitcher the game the 1987 Brewers were going for the 14-0 season start.
  9. 6-0!
  10. Long time, no see! :)
  11. Hawing, when I leave this world, I'll gift you my "What's Brewing?" 45.
  12. OFF: P Elvis Peguero, DFA P Bryan Hudson, DFA ON: P Shelby Miller, acquired OF Brandon Lockridge, acquired The 40-man roster is full.
  13. Correct. 4/25/2025 STL -0.237 Capra GIDP in 9th 5/24/2025 PIT -0.284 Turang GIDP to end game 6/23/2025 PIT -0.222 Durbin CS in the 9th 7/13/2025 WSH -0.240 Contreras GIDP to end 8th 7/27/2025 FLA -0.207 Durbin GIDP to end 6th
  14. OFF: C Eric Haase, DFA ON: C Danny Jansen, acquired The 40-man roster is full.
  15. With his ground rule double Sunday, Vaughn has what I call four "big hits" on the season already, what I arbitrarily call a PA that moves the win probably twenty points or more. I've been tracking this for a few years now. Chourio 7 big hits Vaughn 4 big hits Durbin 4 big hits, 1 bad hit, 1 bad run Frelick 3 big hits Turang 3 big hits, 1 bad hit Collins 2 big hits Contreras 2 big hits, 1 bad hit Hoskins 2 big hits Yelich 2 big hits Bauers 1 big hit Ortiz 1 big hit Capra 0 big hits, 1 bad hit
  16. I was at the game. Pretty much zero trolling from the Chicago/Cubs fans. It has been asked for years how to stop the trolling and the answer was "simple, just beat the Cubs". The last couple of years now has shown that is the answer.
  17. The bar in West Allis I was at had it on FD.
  18. Yes, it was brought up during the television broadcast. I'm sure a few members of this board were in attendance that night.
  19. This was like watching a soccer game being decided on penalty kicks. But I guess better than going on for another six innings. I actually watched three innings of this, the most in a number of years.
  20. OFF: OF Drew Avans, DFA ON: OF Blake Perkins, activated The 40-man roster is full.
  21. In this day in age, I would have thought an AI Bob Uecker.
  22. So, do the players vote for a full share to Civale after the World Series?
  23. OFF: P Elvin Rodriguez, DFA ON: OF Steward Berroa, acquired The 40-man roster is full.
  24. OFF: OF Daz Cameron, outrighted OF Garrett Mitchell, 60-day IL ON: 2B Anthony Seigler, selected P Brandon Woodruff, activated The 40-man roster is full.
