Nicely timed hit for Kochman!

 

[passedpawn]

Waaah. Oh well, good run for us, good luck TX.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Sorry, Passedpawn. I was really hoping for the Rays.

 

[Crew]

I'm an idiot, Pujols has a ring.. Go brewers!

 

[Bernie Brewer]

I honestly don't know who to root for between the Cards and Phillies. I hate 'em both.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

You cant feel bad about the season though. Especially when you were down by 9 games a month ago! Go Rangers!

So I find out tonight whether my birthday includes a Yankees game or not... On the bright side, if they lose I get my ticket money back and we're gonna go to a brewery instead.

With Burnett pitching, happy brewery day.

Let's just say I was perusing the menu earlier today.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Wheels are coming off for the Cards now.

 

[user 574]

Spoke a little too soon there Bernie. Anyway, I'm rooting for the Phillies. Because everyone was supposed to lose to them so it'd be gravy if it didn't happen.

But Brewers got their own business to take care of tonight. And I got a friggen 7a meeting tomorrow. It was easier when I lived in AZ for these late games...

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Well, the wheels did come off, but the Cards are putting them back on.....

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Ouch. Come on CREW!

Tonight's game is going the way I expected. Yankees score early against Porcello, Coke in relief, I would expect Alburquerque next and Benoit to finish. Tigers need some hit's and Granderson needs to forgive the Tigers for trading him to the Yankees That guy just play's to well against us.

Wait till the Yanks try to buy Cabrera!

Yeah I know... just got to enjoy him while we got him... same goes for any player, Hard to match a team that gets $500 mill a year from the local baseball network. But the Yank fan's never get the chance to watch a team go from 100 losses to the playoffs. To live and die with your team no matter what. I've been doing it for 50 years and wouldn't change a thing.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

7-1 bad guys. Sh!t.

Wheels falling off for Tigs. Ugh. My dad (lives up there) has probably turned it off by now.

Just 1 game.. doesn't make a difference what you lose by... I like Fister for Thursday a lot... Tell your dad to never turn off the game.

 

[Homercidal]

Fck you, Granderson!


LOL!

Next game will be interesting.

I guess you forgot the 80's and early 90's...

Looks like I'll be in the Bronx tomorrow night! Can't wait because I have the best seats I've ever had at the new stadium.

I hope you enjoy your birthday at the stadium. And I also hope the Yankees lose, though I don't see it with Nova pitching.

It would be a win-win. You get a mostly cool birthday at the stadium and I avoid the constant chirping from my Yankee-fan in laws.

It's not in disgust or indifference... he's worried about his ticker! You couldn't find a bigger fan.

BTW, we (Rays) beat Texas 8-1 in the first game of our series, and you see how that ended. Thud.

Thanks!

I actually wanted the Sox in the playoffs. My only distain for the current team is directed at Papelbon. I'm pissed I didn't get to go to a Red Sox/Yanks game this year. I usually get at least one in.

I'm not a big Pap fan, either, but he had a great year.

It's really kind of hard to hate the Yankees players. I'd love to have Swisher, Mariano is the best ever and all class, Jeter is to be admired, love Posada, Cano is destined for greatness and Granderson is just a great guy on and off the field.

Of course, A-Rod and Burnett make it really, really easy for me to overlook the good guys.

Oswalt on the mound for Philly tonight, Jackson going for St louis. Prediction: The phillies finally get to face a fastball pitcher and will take full advantage.

If the Phillies somehow lose tonight, they go back to Philly for game 5 and start Halladay...I like our chances!

I will be rooting for the D-backs to at least take the series to a game 5, just so the Brew Crew doesn't get any rest. Of course, I wouldn't mind seeing Philly face AZ either, but I don't see that happening.

Hell no, I remember how baseball was 20- 30 years ago. It's kind of the point I was talking about. Teams went up and down back then. Congrats on the great seats. I'd love to be there for the game.

I'll get some pictures to post. We have so many posters with their teams in the playoffs (well some were in ) and NO PICTURES!!
