Dodger pitching has utterly dominated a Brewer offense that has looked jumpy, unprepared, and not ready for the big moment in the first two games of the National League Championship Series. If Milwaukee is going to get this series back to Milwaukee, that offense will need to find itself in a hurry. But let’s put […]

Box Score For a brief moment, it felt like things were going to go the Brewers’ way on Tuesday night in Milwaukee. Milwaukee had their ace, Freddy Peralta, on the mound, and he put up a zero in the top of the first against the high-powered Dodger offense. In the bottom of the inning, Los […]

The Dodgers, of course, dodged disaster with the back end of their bullpen, navigating a nervous ninth to strand the tying run on third for the Brewers. Today, we’ll see if Milwaukee can claw their way back, or if the weird lack of home-field advantage which 1AZfan1 noted in today’s Bytes. It’s quite the change […]

Last night’s Game 1 between the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers and the Milwaukee Brewers was a light-scoring affair but still had plenty of drama throughout the night.

With the Brewers playing in the National League Championship Series, it feels like an appropriate time to revisit the trade they made with the Red Sox for starter Quinn Priester back on April 7. In exchange for Priester, who put together a strong first season for Milwaukee, Boston acquired outfield prospect Yophery Rodriguez, a player … Continue reading "Revisiting Red Sox’ trade of Quinn Priester to Brewers"

Andrew Vaughn will likely never have to pay for a drink in Milwaukee again after hitting the go-ahead and eventual game-winning home run in Game 5 of the NLDS. Depending on the neighborhood in Chicago, he will still be expected to pay full price plus kick in a 25% tip. His fourth-inning home run broke […]

This is not a thoughtful and incisive overview of the ALCS and NLCS. I was looking up some things yesterday and figured I'd share them rather than not. First of all, I was extremely pleased to watch the Blue Jays hardly break a sweat while humiliating the Yankees. But then I thought . . . shit, the Blue Jays are now really close to going to the World Series. . . . which means they could actually win the World Series. . . . But then I thought, I no longer live outside To...
