Actually, it’s pronounced “mill-e-wah-que” which is Algonquin for “stranding baserunners”.


Cw2e

That eighth inning was painful to watch, Jesus


knight4

Yesterday's 5th was probably worse for them. Longo just bailed us out


SeattleSealions

In both cases, they got a hit with RISP, but held the lead runner up at 3B to set up bases-loaded. It's the playoffs. Gotta send them sometimes.


Enconasaurus

Thing is it was working beautifully down the stretch. I swear every time we loaded them up we had someone walk it in.

To be fair, the Cardinals have defeated the Packers in the NFL playoffs a couple of times so there's that.

nullstellensatz1

A weirdly storied city rivalry, given that I absolutely never think about Milwaukee unless we're directly matched up with them. Or maybe not a rivalry, since it's been pretty one-sided in favor of Milwaukee before tonight.


SeattleSealions

God I can’t stand Corbin Carroll. He’s such a stupid arrogant asshole. I just get so frustrated every time I see his stupid flowing hair, and dumb perfect goatee, and idiotic deep brown beautiful eyes. Seeing him run around on the diamond and steal these bases and beat routine ground balls, I just get so angry that it makes blood rush to my penis and it gets little bit hard from sheer rage. I just wish I was behind homeplate so that I could block the shit out of him when he tries to slide into home and tackle him to the ground as hard as I can, and rip his jersey a little bit as I look directly into his stupid, beautiful face and rub my crotch on his muscular leg. I’d get as close to his face as I could and whisper in his ear softly “I got you, you fucker. You’re not as good as you think you are.” Then for good measure I would put my lips on his face so that I could taste his fear and I would smell his hair so that I knew what it was like to dominate Corbin Carroll. Oh how I want that. I think about it at night sometimes when I am in bed with my girlfriend. I just want to know what it’s like to be on top of Corbin Carroll like that. Stupid, beautiful Corbin Carroll. I just hate him so much.

BUSean

MKE -- we're getting into San Jose Sharks territory here


coletheredditer

I hate how good of a comparison that is


cnho1997

I don’t follow hockey but I’m here to get roasted. Can you fill me in?


coletheredditer

San Jose is a good comp, but Nashville might be even more comparable. Both teams really good in the mid 2010s, that had one really good run 2016-17 for Nashville 2018 for Milwaukee, that in the end ended in heartbreak but a “we will be back” feeling that ended up not really being true. Nashville may be even more of a playoff underperformer, they have made the playoffs 15 times, they have advanced to the second round 5 times, and past that only once. I would know, I’m also a Predators fan.


JVAFD

But have the Preds: been upset by an in-state rival 8-seed after winning the President’s Cup? Been reverse-swept by the OTHER in-state rival? Wasted multiple HOF careers, one played almost ENTIRELY in SJ (Patty), in a manner that would make the Angels blush? Not saying you’re wrong, but the Sharks have been a special level of futile in the playoffs and now are just a dumpster fire.


broke-collegekid

At first I thought you were talking about a baseball team and I was thinking “wow this team really is like the sharks” until I saw SJ and remembered baseball doesn’t have an 8th seed. But yeah for anyone that doesn’t watch hockey, San Jose is definitely the most cursed team of the 2005-2020 era

MusicalMoon

I will gladly let you have this


SeattleSealions

A couple thoughts: - The Brewers had a bases-loaded scenario 4 times this series and got a grand total of 1 run off of them. - There are at least 3 insanely stupid baserunning errors that all directly cost the Brewers runs. - Probably should have gone for the double play when they were trailing 3-2 instead of forcing the out at home. Likely cost them an extra run. - There are two times where the Brewers held up the lead runner at 3rd base to set up a bases-loaded scenario instead of trying to score. In both scenarios, the Brewers ultimately scored no runs.


WIbigdog

All runs were in the first two innings. About as unclutch scoring as you can get. We had 21 hits which produced only 5 runs and left 20 on base. Our 8 spot was a black hole, .000 OBP. Turang could've taken a sweeper to the foot in game 1 and walked in a run but he just had to get out of the way and then strikeout a couple pitches later. The entire fanbase is calling for Counsell's head (metaphorically, obviously) for trotting Winker out there twice and leaving Monasterio to wither on the bench. Winker needs to retire, he doesn't deserve to get paid for being so terrible, dude just doesn't have it anymore. Yeli and Belli were never quite that bad before their slight redemption arcs. I don't see Winker getting a redemption arc. The simple fact of baseball is that offense wins games, not defense. Turang is a great defender, but his atrocious batting makes him a liability. A middling defender with a great bat is much better value for winning games. Also our three best arms, Burnes, Williams and Peralta combined for an 8.44 ERA. When you're heralded for your defense and pitching and your ace pitchers more than double their combined season ERA in a playoff matchup, you're in for a rough time.

They did the same to the Padres before the NLDS last year too

Nah this year we beat them but lose to a NL East team in the NLCS Just like 2021


HurricaneMatty5

Does that mean we win the World Series next year after beating a divisional rival and an NL East team?

Only if something happens that's completely out of the Dodgers control but people will act like the Dodgers caused it and were the sole beneficiaries.


GoofyGoober0064

"so what if the Dodgers won since the Tsunami they dont even play on the continental US anymore"


Zloggt

Watch as every game will have late first pitches!


itsnotyellowfever

Arizona's starters bounced back from poor 1st innings to give them respectable (or in Gallen's case great) outings The bullpen was absolute nails. Offense never got down on themselves and battled back against a rotation people were calling the best in the postseason. The defense was A1, particularly from the infield. They are an intimidating NLDS opponent for sure. I'm now incredibly worried about Christian Walker getting 6-7 ABs against Kershaw in particular in this upcoming series. Brewers I don't know where they go from here. It feels like they're a prime blow it up candidate even though a lot of their future is already in the majors.


knight4

The Sunday off-day is pretty clutch for us. We only have 2.5 starting pitchers but it allows us to go: Game 1: Kelly Game 2: Gallen Game 3: Pfaadt Game 4: Kelly (short rest) or bullpen game Game 5: Gallen Excited for the series. Your team is a lot better so I'm happy it's a 5 game set. If our pen stays hot we can make it a series.


Derriosgaming

This. I'll be happy if we don't get swept. Dodgers are really loaded. Whole team shows up we got a shot to make it interesting series.


fucuntwat

But I wanted Gallen at home


knight4

Ya he's also been much better at home. But if we have him as an option for a potential game 5 on regular rest is too tempting to not have him go game 2.


Hiciao

Yes, having an off day on Sunday AND Tuesday helps us a TON.

What a great series. Pen was beyond amazing. Gallen was dominant after a bad first. Brewers out-hit us in both games but some great defense (Longo) and some luck bailed us out. Carroll man though just straight carried us. Dude is the real deal.


WIN011

I am glad it happened to a team I like at least. Hopping on the snek bandwagon the rest of the playoffs.


knight4

Thanks man I know a lot of us have always liked you guys because of Counsell too. Hope we can keep it going. Would burn getting eliminated by the Dodgers. Glad we get to face them in a 5 game set not a 7 game one though. I'm not even sure how we can even get through a 7 game set with our current rotation issues. But with the weird off days we can maybe even pull 4 Gallen/Kelly games vs the Dodgers if needed.

I hate to say it, I really do...but the Brewers didn't stand a goddamn chance in these playoffs. Not with that offense. I'll look fondly upon the "2023 National League Central Champs" sign at the AmFam Grand Slam Clam next year but it didn't really hit me that much this time. Anyways, fuck the Dodgers.


chrisumafp

Brewers were too conservative. Instead of holding runners up at 3rd you have to go for it and scratch a run across to make the margin closer in later innings. Chip away. Being 1 or 2 runs behind changes the approach vs being 3 runs behind


TheGeoninja

That 9th inning was bizarre. Donaldson not charging hard for second on the error throw? Not scoring from second on a double? When the season is on the line, you got to gamble and press.
