Not a fan of "Bullpen games", but when you only have 3 healthy solid starters, I guess it is what it is.

In the modern day your pen has to survive several series to get the crown. Harken back to 1960 in a 7 game WS that finally ended 10-9. Both bullpen were worn out but they only played one 7 game series.

Love it!!! What a great decision by Murph to throw a Bullpen game at them! I take back my dislike of BP games!

Marvelous pitching job after the 1st!

I guess they remembered where they left their bats last month, eh? They've racked up 16 runs in 2 games, and given up just 6.

I have been saying that it is going to be Brewers VS Blue Jays for awhile now. A match-up with the Mariners wouldn't be that bad either.

Same here.... and the Jays are no joke this year, either. Toronto's red hot, too - they won 94 games, and they've piled up 23 runs in 2 games against another 94-win team...

Teams that start out 2-0 at home in a 5-game have won 31 out of 34, and both the Jays and the Crew are now 2-0. This could make one hell of a Series if it does come to that.

He played that bullpen brilliantly, too!

Exactly! So glad he pitched Megill in the 8th, before Uribe. Trevor looked good and probably gained some confidence that his flexor is fine.

This is a thing of beauty! Against a really good hitting team to boot. 10 K's and only 1 hit in 8.2 innings!

Had the table all set up in the 8th, with Chourio's leadoff double, to tie or take the lead, no clutch hits followed.

Let's get then in game 4!

There are 2 teams remaining (6 total) that have never Won a World Series. Milwaukee and Seattle. It would be neat for their fanbases to watch them compete for one. Ideally Milwaukee would Win their First and Seattle would appear in their first.

While a game 5 win at home would be rather fun for Brewer fans, I am just fine with the Brewers winning tonight in Chicago! Philly won last night against the Dodgers, so that series is also sitting at 2-1. Ideally, Brewers win tonight and the Dodgers drop another one to force a game 5 in Philly. The NLCS starts on Monday, no matter who is playing.

I can't figure out which of the 2 teams I would rather see the Brewers face in the NLCS. While the Brewers did sweep the Dodgers in all 6 games this season, the Dodgers starters have been hot over the last 2 months. With the Phillies, The Brewers did win 4 of 6, but I really dislike Philly fans.

I guess I should just hope for the Brewers to advance and may the worst team advance between the Dodgers and Phillies, after a grueling 29 inning game 5. :D
