All these years and I still can’t get used to the Brewers being in the NL.
I’ve always been a Robin Yount fan so I’m going Brewers. And the celebration if they win would be epic. 🥳
Thanks for starting the thread Galaxy.
I'm absolutely on board with this matchup. It should be a great World Series and I'm rooting for the Brew Crew to bring the trophy back to the NL Central. It would be cool to see it go the distance as we are all aware of the potential for a work (play) stoppage on December 1. So let's enjoy this and then root for our knucklehead sports heroes to tie the knot on the agreement with the Evil Empire ownership, so we can eagerly chat about it 2027.

Brewers in 6.

Good to see some new blood in the Series. Will like watching this one. Got a bet in on TB, but either way long as it's competitive will like the games.
No Dodgers -- hooray!
No Yankees -- hooray!
No Red Sox -- hooray!
No Braves -- hooray!
No Phillies --hooray!
Let's Go BREWERS!!!
I'm 100% rooting for the Brew Crew
Would be great to see the Brewers win it all
all i will say regarding this matchup is....
....i can't emphasize enough how stoked i am to watch two small market teams duke it out for the chip
this. the Brewers will always be AL in my mind and the Astros will always be NL.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
I wonder who else is old enough to remember Milwaukee’s original MLB team and also the short lived Seattle Pilots.
No looking on Google!! 😂😂😇

Yeah we all know the Boston Braves came to MKE to become the Milwaukee Braves before heading to Atlanta. Then Selig bought the Pilots and moved them to MKE in 69.
But the Brewers were a team as far back as the 1880s and you can see the original names in some the Brewers alternate jerseys through the years.
Every baseball fan in Wisconsin should know this.
Always remembered "Bernie Brewer" sliding into the mug of beer after a home run. The new version is more "Family friendly" I guess....................

Nice National Anthem!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Another great win for the Brewers!

Congratulations to WS victors Brewers.😀
Robert Gasser came over from the Padres in the Hader trade. Had a great rookie season until he ended up with the TJ after just 5 starts. It’s been a long path back to form but he’s been rocking since the ASB for the Crew. Love seeing young pitching staff coalesce like these guys. Reminds me of the 90s Braves.
Game 3 has turned into a beat down.

Crazy................10 - 0

Shouldn't they call this game before somebodies feelings get hurt???????

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hurricane Milton ain't got nothin' on these dudes. Them's a tornado.
A gembryo is the early developmental stage of a perfect card.
A few short months ago this was merely a not very good team with only 2 hitters.
Finding it more than a bit ironic that the Chourio thread was such a poke at his contract and he's about to be MVP of the WS.

dream season for the crew
103 in the reg season and just bumrushing everyone in the playoffs
not even a sweat
i remember '04 well. when the Sox were down 0-3 to the Yanks, it still had a lingering "feel" to it. like........wait, not quite yet.
i'm not experiencing that same feeling with this series
But nobody ever felt that with the Sox in '04 that's what made it literally magical
The series isn't over and the Rays could win the next 4, unlikely but that's why they play best of 7
The Refs from the Lions-Packers are umpiring it?
Right now the Brew Crew is humming along at 10-1 in the Playoffs. Two schools of thought. One says the Rays are desperate at home and will do anything to win tonight, watch the bench and bullpen get emptied. The other, which I subscribe to, is much simpler: the Brewers must be thinking “Let’s finish this!!”

And it boils down to you can want but doesn't mean you will get
I think the Crew smash them in game 4 but anything is possible
Milwaukee is 10-1 in the playoffs
Tampa has to find a way to make them go 0-4 all of a sudden
that would include winning two in Milwaukee
and getting through Miz
very best of luck with that endeavor
We witnessed a baseball season heavy on strength of competition. Tampa won their way through a very weak league overall when compared to the N.L. and Milwaukee has thrashed every team in its path. The results speak volumes. The Brewers have not only owned the game, they’ve elevated the organization as a standalone example of how to win. A lot.

Those missed opportunities in the 9th inning of games 1/2 by TB were a big factor. And jumping out to 4-0 lead in game 2 was wasted, when shut out thereafter, were killers.
Milwaukee has all but eliminated the Rays best pitcher, Rasmussen would probably start on Friday and I suppose he could pitch a few innings if necessary tomorrow. That's why the strategy of having the number one pitch the first game makes sense, he's ready for game four as usual and then game seven to let it all out.

Who likes the Joe Davis and John Smoltz performance? I don’t think Snoop Dogg could help.
Dare I say, they make me miss Joe Buck.

If I’m Ortiz, Lara or Vaughn I might be currently wondering if I’m the kid who’s supposed to go to the snack bar to fetch sports drinks and power bars for the kids who play every inning.

Pratt homers - will that do it for the Brewers?????????????
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
3-3 in 12th inning hope Brewers win their 1st ever World Series but I have a felling tonight will not be the night.
Liberty Seated Half Dollars
(G-04 to F-12)
( will that do it for the Brewers????????????? )
Guess not --- Rays tie it up in the 12th 3 -3
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Game 5 tomorrow, Rays win 4 -3
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
And the Rays dodge the sweep.

Glad to have another game to watch. Who’s gonna pitch? 🤔
