**** you Baez
Win this thing in the 9th boys....
Get it together Brewers finish these ****s
Baez acts like a bitch
Good baseball, followed by bad baseball got the lead then gave up the lead.
Here it is Braun - time to make it count you are due
Well, he made it count. Maybe not how you were thinking, but he did advance the runner.
Braun. Clutch.
It is time
Bases loaded bottom of 9th.
Cmon Crew.
Good grief- hits it TOO hard???
Make a few more changes Cubs
**** them up
How about a passed ball win?
Terrible at bat what else is new
Come on kid... be a hero.
Quit swinging for the goddamn fences
just need a hit
8 left on, 3 innings...
How many chances can you have
Maddening just maddening
Darn it. need more shutdown pitching.
Broxton choke.
Leave Phillips out there and there's 1 out
Drake looks out of his element.
Crap
God is Drake terrible.
Brewers peed down their leg in this one. Everything right for 8 innings. Then Jeffress didn't hustle, leaves one over the plate for the game tying run with 2 strikes, and 2 young kids can't make contact with them loaded with one out. Now the Cubs make them pay. A young team learned a big lesson tonight...
Note to self. Have Knebel available in most important series of season.
And Drake is in the majors because............??????????
Because the Brewers are rebuilding and thier roster is not yet complete ???
It was kinda rhetorical ïŋ―ïŋ―
Wow this home plate umpire has had a bad night. Not even close.

This. Counsell overused the bullpen in the Pirates series. No need to use Swarzak last night. Should have let Hader pitch 2 innings last night and used Knable in the 9TH and saved Swarzak for tonight. I like Counsell but he screwed the pooch for this game. Except for the 3 mentioned our bullpen sucks.
Stearns and Counsell have done an incredible job! We had the players in position to make plays that would have won both of the last 2 games. Knebel makes the throw we win, Jefferess either made the play or should have moved slightly faster and we win last night. Managers on and off the field need to put players in spots they can succeed, our hitters are getting their opportunities to produce and our pitchers are pitching Great{minus Drake).
Make two plays and it's Miller Time!
The last two losses have been a kick in the nuts but who would have thought we'd be in this situation with 2 weeks to go?
Colorado losing takes some of the sting out of last nights loss but they need to take control and start getting timely hits as they had several chances to put the game away regardless of what Jeffress did and it should have never gotten to Drake in the first place.
Braun needs to start stepping up. His at bats lately have been really painful to watch.
To me it seems as if Counsell is managing like every game is a playoff game, which is not that far from reality. I have no problem with the bullpen use in the PIT series.
Agreed what Braun needs to step up.
Still having fun, and still somewhat surprised we are talking Brewers during NFL week 3.
The last two nights have sure felt like playoff games. Outcome wasn't good but fun to watch.
They need someone other than Santana to get clutch hits and ideally that's Braun and to a lesser extent Shaw.
Shaw smashed one with a man on second in the 9th. But as luck would have it, too hard to score him from second. Sh*t luck...
