Braun better make up for that crap he pulled in the 9th inning with a homer this inning.

[giffted1]

Seth won't be starting tomorrow, so lets give him a win today boys!!!

[Mass Haas]

Can't leave the office now, keep supper warm for me, honey! It could be a long time...

[sargennm]

Do you really think this crap happens to the Astros or the Cardinals?

This has happened to the Cardinals repeatedly this season.

Almost every night.

[naivin]

Regarding the rusty closer...I've looked at that, and I think he may actually just have hit the wall. He's a rubber arm, but he has done very little time as a closer prior to this year. I'm afraid we may have to replace him in that role immediately.

[eanelson4]

I tell you what, McClung looked pretty darn sharp right there. Hitting 97MPH on the clock with good control.

[And That]

There is no coming back from this loss.

I just looked at the scoreboard. I must be looking at a different game, because this one is tied.

It is inevitable after what just happened.

No, it's not. But if you believe it is, you can stop posting.

[dlk9s]

Time for Fielder to get even.

[Mr QL]

McClung for McCloser

[naivin]

So who gets Lee and Ramirez in the 11th?

[Mr QL]

redeem yourself Ryan

[TSack27]

So, with as hot (and angry) the Fielder is, this inning will he swing so hard that:

A) a line drive takes off Wood's head

B) a monster shot takes out windows across the street

C) swings & misses an epheus pitch and tears his rib cage muscles apart, bringing a symbolic end to the Brewers season (remember how the 3B black hole was re-born to start the dog days of summer swoon)

[Ennder]

Even Braun won't swing at one that high!

[yount19.u]

McClung looks like a guy that Prince wouldn't want to mess with right about now. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

I say give McClung a bat!

C;mon Ryan, we need you.

[pretendastronaut]

Hey, Braun is 3 for 3 against Wood. That can only mean good things right?

[naivin]

C'mon Kerry...Throw him that pitch you threw Prince the other night!

[Ennder]

That sure didn't look like a strike.

[Bernman23]

Do you really think this crap happens to the Astros or the Cardinals?

This has happened to the Cardinals repeatedly this season.

Nope. That happened in the middle of the season. Completely different level of pressure and stakes. This didn't happen in any of the seasons where they were in a playoff race late I'm sure. Do people need to be punched in the face with the fact that we have unique ability to bend under pressure when the stakes are high? Surely, I shouldn't have to convince a Brewer fan anymore. Where have you been the last 17 years? Same teams choking as last year: Brewers and Mets.

[trwi7]

So Braun makes a horribly lazy play in the field that might cost us the game and then swings at a bunch of junk before striking out looking.

[bucks2281]

That's a very questionable call.

[tristarscoop]

Called 3rd strikes = the way to win a game!!!

[bthurley19]

Wow, that was pathetic.
