Almost every game against the Cubs this season has been a low-scoring sweaty ending.

Win-or-lose, we should be proud of these Brewers hanging in there almost every single game against the Cubs considering the fact that the Cubs have more than double the payroll of the Brewers this season (which is typical).

I will probs have a heart attack at work if it gets to Knebel with a 1-0 lead.

Nice leadoff single for Jesus in the 7th ... let's stretch this lead! Let''s make the Cubs bleed!

We cannot leave our bats on our shoulders when there are 2 strikes and we are behind in the count!

Too many wasted opportunities. Hopefully the pen can hold on
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

These missed opportunities are going to come back and kill us. I can feel this game moving already from a win to a "how the **** do the Cubs keep doing this to us".

Didn't Rizzo do this last series we played them? Both times were strikes.

Rizzo got some Draymond leeway on that non-ejection

Thames coming on to pinch-hit.
The current Cubs pitcher has had it.
The Cubs bring in a left-hander.
Can Thames still hit a grandstander?

Didn't like Thames approach to that AB. That first pitch was a meat ball.
