Wow the SS bobbled the ball with a runner on 3rd with 2 outs but threw out Hardy just in time. To extras...

Brewers got the first two on via walk but Hardy hit into a 5-3 double play. Inning over.

No. Hart hit into a double play (3rd to first) then they intentionally walked Cameron and Kapler grounded out to third.

Yeah my bad I meant Hart.

And the Brewers win. The Choking Cubs now have a 4 game lead in the division and a 7.5 game lead in the playoffs. Unreal.

Both the Brewers and Cubs are doing everything they can to screw it up. Brewers really tried to give away the game tonight but pulled it off, but face Peavy tomorrow night (although he's been not good away from Petco).

21 games to go, should be an interesting 3 weeks.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Brewers pulled a Cubs tonight and blew a 2 run lead in the 8th inning. Cubs are now up 4.5 in the division. And their magic number slips to 15.

After surrendering three ninth-inning runs to the Reds tonight that cost the Brewers a badly needed victory and extended their skid to six losses in eight games -- all at home -- closer Salomon Torres brashly proclaimed that the reeling Brewers still would catch the Cubs

Doubt that if you keep blowing games Salomon.
