Wojcie ESPN article on NL Central, Crew meltdown

[SeriesFinale]

Pretty good read.

 

It pulls no punches but also provides the smallest bit of hope.

 

And I'm glad to see at least one Brewer finally admit this:

 

"We weren't thinking about [the losing]," said Brewers shortstop J. J Hardy. "We were just going out there playing and winning ballgames. When it started getting closer and closer, I think we started thinking about it more. And we were looking back ... and seeing where [the Cubs] were, seeing if they're winning.

 

"We talked about it like, 'Just go out there and worry about what we're doing and we don't have to worry about them.' But I feel like we were still looking at the scoreboard."

I bet it's tough for a bunch of 24 year olds to not look at the scoreboard; they've never been in a pennant race before.
