Whew. Walk off walk.
Weird game.
Sofia “what’s your secret.”
Brad “I just don’t swing”
That’s some Fox News level reporting.
Nice comeback. Bullpen bailed Suter out. Bunting is so old school.

Wager a guess what Warrens fastball would register at?
Orf's near slam was the most amazing out I've seen in a while. A few more feet and damn!!
Another win over the Twinkies, 2-0. Brewers had no ground ball outs today. All fly balls or strike outs. The 2 runs came on a Thames homer in the 5th.. Hader with 3 scoreless innings and a save for Knable.
A great way to get win #50.

"They asked if I would be open to playing second if that situation presents itself," said Shaw. "I don't know if it's going to present itself or not, but it's been mentioned earlier this year, too.
"I actually feel OK over there. The range would be what it is, but if it happens, I'll be ready to go."
Brewers GM David Stearns downplayed the meaning of Shaw's early work, saying in an email, "We have guys taking ground balls all over the field during early work and BP. Sometimes [Jesus] Aguilar takes ground balls at shortstop. Travis plays on that side of the bag a fair amount in our shift alignments so it makes sense for him to take ground balls over there. Adding to positional versatility is always helpful."
Still, Shaw's openness to a move could open avenues as Stearns looks for ways to bolster the Brewers ahead of the non-waiver Trade Deadline. Second base is a position of need, as Milwaukee entered Tuesday 23rd in the Majors in weighted on-base average and 26th in weighted runs created plus at the position.
If Shaw moved there, a rental player like the Royals' Mike Moustakas would be in play as a trade target.
Maybe Braun goes back to his old corner?
Orf on Manny and Jesus’s shoulders is the best thing
