Because the Dodgers couldn’t hold a 5-run lead with two outs in the 10th inning last night…
…the #2 seed in the National League playoffs comes down to tonight. Currently, the Brewers have a one-game lead on the Diamondbacks, but the D-backs have the tiebreaker. So a Brewers win and/or a D-backs loss tonight gives Milwaukee the #2 seed and home field advantage for the first round. A Brewers loss and a D-backs win hands that to Arizona.
Stupid Dodgers. Have they been kicked out of baseball yet?
As luck would have it, Zack Greinke is pitching for the Crew tonight. Greinke is 10-0 in 14 starts at home this year. So suck it, Az. First pitch in about five minutes.
In other news, I’m paying attention to baseball in September. In a normal year, I can’t even see baseball, what with the NFL blocking out the sun.
Fear the beer, people. Fear it!
UPDATE - Brewers win! D-backs lose! Cardinals win! Braves lose (in 13 innings)! Rays win! Red Sox lose!

Loved the picture and Mr. Stearns’ quote, as well…..
