Turang with a superb back handed play to end the inning! Phillies strand Turner and Harper!
Adames flies out to Right Center. Bauers is the 2nd out and Hoskins is the 3rd out.
Megill pitching for the Brewers, in the 8th.
Turner hits into a fielders choice at 2nd. Schwarber out. 1 down.
Chourio with a basket catch to put out Harper. 2 down.
0-2 on Castellanos. Struck him out looking! Megill with the heat!
I know the Phillies are the best team in baseball this season, and that they have an excellent starting rotation.
But if the Brewers have any aspirations beyond simply winning their division, making a real run at a world championship, they have to do a better job at the plate. We scored 1 run last night on 5 hits, and have 1 run on 3 hits in the bottom of the 8th.
Make that 4 hits. Let’s go, Sal!
Kerkering pitching for Phillie. Frelick grounds to 2nd and beats the throw to 1st. Call being reviewed. Call overturned. Frelick out. Ortiz up.
Ortiz takes a called 3rd strike. 2 down. Turang up. Proceeds to strike out. 9th inning coming up. Bohm, Stott and Marsh due up.
Full count on Bohm. Struck him out swinging! 1 down.
Not related to the game, but I thought you guys might like to see this while we wait on the edge of our seats.
This card, owned by a long time member of our vintage and pre-World War II baseball card group on Facebook, was offered for sale tonight. It’s a 1910 T206 Eddie Plank in a very high grade. Only about 120 examples of this card are known to exist in the world, and this one is an absolute blazer. These cards were used to stiffen the packaging of tobacco packs.
Plank is one of the great pitchers in baseball history, with 326 wins. He’s 16th all-time in Baseball Reference pitching wins with 90.9.

Brewers win the first series against the DBacks. Win the series against the Phillies.
YAAAAAAAS!
I can’t wait to hear Ueck’s call!!!!
Nice to win this one as it spoils the Phillies efforts to clinch the East!
When will the national media put some respect on this team???

They will have to win at least one playoff series.
Very likely locked into the 3 seed at this point. They lose the tiebreakers against both the Phillies (2-4 record against them) and Dodgers (3-4) and are 2 games behind the Dodgers and 3 behind the Phils with 10 games left.
If the Brewers ran the table (very unlikely even with strong play given they have 4 against the D-Backs next and 3 with the Mets to end the season), the Phillies would have to go 7-3 and the Dodgers 8-2 to beat them.
6 of the Dodgers last 10 games are against the Rockies, and they have one more against the Marlins.
Phillies have a tougher schedule with 4 against the Mets before 3 with the Cubs and 3 with the Nats.
