So true story:

 

Last night I was telling someone how literally the night before our boys where born in May, was the beginning of that awful stretch in May, and literally the day they came home from the NICU, the Brewers went on that tear to be the hottest team in the league forever until September.

 

I was joking that I couldn't figure out what had changed with the boys in September though.

 

My wife comes home from work today, and she had taken this Brewers cowbell that a friend found for me, to her classroom to use to ring when the kids where acting up. She comes home today and tells me that one of her students asked her to get rid of it because the Brewers hadn't been winning since she brought it in.

 

So I proceeded to give her a lot of trouble about how that was the link I had just been looking for, and she needed to get rid of it. 10 minutes later its a tie ball game and now she believes me.

 

I'm sorry for doing that to you all.

Don't know how you call that a ball after calling Braun out on a pitch much worse than that.

 

I didn't see the first eight innings, but Rapuano has been pretty consistent with the outside pitches since I've been watching. The one to Braun was within the framework, and so were these ones to Edmonds, who is acting like a freaking two-year-old. You'd think someone as experienced as Edmonds would know better than to behave like that.

Wearing my heart on my sleeve since birth. Hopefully, it's my only crime.

Well yeah, that's sort of the problem. He was giving nothing off the corners the first 8 innings but then all of a sudden he expanded the strikezone.
