Just to mess with you 'stache!

 

K-Rod can't blow another one, can he? At least he has a 3 run cushion

 

Not nice

[The stache]

We do NOT want two on with Christian Yelich at the plate.

[DocLuna7]

We won??

[Jeff-B]

Oh praise the Lord!

[pebadger]

It almost looked like RR was tearing up there during the handshakes.

[The stache]

Thank God.

We won??

 

Amazingly enough, yes, we did.

Good to get a "W"

 

Did'ya know that Gerardo Parra came into this game batting .295 with the Brewers? (and went 2-4 tonight)

 

I bash Melvin plenty but that was a heckuva trade

[superfly]

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIN

[pretendastronaut]

At this point, 1 in a row in an incredible steak. We're hot baby!

Everyone complains about "roles", but Broxton pitched in a higher leverage situation, and got a huge out with the bases loaded. KRod, on the other hand, has the 9th with a 3 run cushion. Intentions were probably not this way, but it ended up working out perfectly. I'd rather see Broxton the closer now, but I'm happy it was him in the 8th and not Kintzler.

Brewers are tied with Atlanta, 1.5 games behind the Pirates for the 2nd wild-card spot

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

phew that's huge.

[vegasbrewcrew1993]

at some point they've got to get hot. there's no way they'll stay cold until the end of the season

[3and2Fastball]

Peralta pitched very well tonight, and using Broxton for 4 outs in a high leverage situation was the right call

 

With Fiers going tomorrow I'm optimistic the Brewers can get 2 in a row

 

Broxton has been used in 4 straight games though and probably shouldn't be used/available tomorrow

I really hope you're right. The team looked much more at ease last night. When Segura scored on that Gomez infield single, they looked like they were actually having fun and enjoying themselves. Kind of like a change in the mood for the whole team. Hopefully it lasts.

[Pugger]

I'm glad they won if only for their psyche! This losing streak had to be wearing on them all. I'm almost afraid to contemplate getting 2 in a row.

 

We get all of the Marlin games down here so we watched their broadcast. Those guys are one of the best in the business IMO. They almost sounded relieved for us to finally stop the hemorrhaging. The TV guys in Miami are Rich Waltz and Tommy Hutton.
