7/31/08 Cubs (Harden) at Brewers (Bush): 1:05 CDT

[pete]

Eddings has a responsibility to try and accurately call balls and strikes.

[bucks2281]

First hit w/ runners in RISP all series!

 

Bravo Brewers!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

The ultimate indignity: they're pitching Eyre against us.

 

It's like taking a knee isn't it?

[eanelson4]

Regardless of that, all those STILL in favor of starting Kapler over Cameron:

I find it interesting how different people respond differently to acts like getting ejected and throwing inside/beaning opponents.

 

Some say it's "showing fire" and some say it's just "classless."

 

I personally think it's classless and the Brewers need to take out their frustration on the field.

Bravo Brewers!

Yeah, I couldn't help but laugh...their timing is impeccable.

[adambr2]

This is great post-game press conference material for Yost. Now in addition to talking about how good Harden was and how Bush pitched well besides one or two mistakes, he can talk about how we "battled" in the 9th.

I think you misunderstood me...I did think it was silly.

[pretendastronaut]

Oh man, now I have to tape the replay tonight to see this beaning attempt. Crap.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

I vote classless. While I appreciate they are showing their fire and emotion...they are also demonstrating their youth, inexperience and a lack of composure. The very things that have cost them time and again in this series.

 

That just doesn't speak well of this team's leadership.

[bbaehman]

great timing...maybe the bats will come alive for the weekend

[B2k1121]

Nice that the Brewers decide to play after the sweep is complete.

[adambr2]

COME ON RICKIE!!!!!

 

(What, I want 6 burgers for $5 at George Webbs tonight.)

[bbaehman]

ouch

I didn't specifically mean you...I meant, as a whole, a lot of people take each side.

[Mass Haas]

Whoo-hoo! More hits than the Cubbies!

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

It sure was nice last year when they actually had to use Eyre before the game was over.

[Bruce Ciskie]

How fitting. Weeks swings at another non-strike to end it.

[holybannana]

We hit with RISP!!! We hit with RISP!!! It's a breakthrough!!!!

[Irish Brewer]

Personally I think it shows a little bit a fire, but I can certainly see the argument for the other side.

[SeriesFinale]

I'm ready for a good "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"-esque memory-cleaning right about now

 

I guess a bottle of cheap plonk will have to do.

[adambr2]

No retaliation from Lou. He didn't have to, the series spoke for itself. He got the sweep, and Yost was left whining and pouting in the other dugout.

[bucks2281]

Yeah, it's classless, but I can't blame him. I'd have a tough time maintaining my composure after what's happened this week.

[crewcrazy]

Well at least they started hitting in the 9th...hopefully it carries over to the first inning in Atlanta.

 

I think getting the heck out Milwaukee for a few days will do this team a lot of good.

[fondybrewfan]

Congratulations Jason your OPS in July is now under .500!!!!

 

Good thing Rivera never gets to start ever because Kendall isn't wearing down or anything. Kendall is a gamer, he will go out and suck with the best of them.
