Rough end to it. But Padres having to go to the bullpen early is big.

that was one hell of a play to get the first out in the ninth as well, especially the throw.

Javy Baez might have been the MVP of the series.

Brewers/Cubs will be electric.  I'm rooting for the Brewers even though I grew up in Evanston.

That wasn't close to a strike.  They really need to get rid of umps deciding the strike zone.

Was Brad Keller contractually obligated to throw in the 9th?

Interesting managerial decision to say the least.

Taillon was great.

Keller looked scared in the 8th. Was surprised he didn't get pulled 2 batters sooner. Cubs got a big break with that called third.

Hopefully a 3-4 day will get PCA some confidence and get him going.

Going to be a crazy week.

Not sure what was interesting about it. 100% supportive of the decision, regardless of how dicey it got.

Of course, I was at the game so I didn't have the benefit of tv.

I told you the Tigers weren't done. Congrats on your lads pulling out a gritty series win.

Looking forward to a fun tower-MU82 series!

It's too bad the Brewers have to head back to that dump. MLB should move the Cubs home games to Rate Field for the sake of the fans.

Im only having to pay for renovations, on top of the actual construction, of one of the fields.

No issues with him starting the 9th. My issue is he should have been pulled two batters sooner when it was clear he didn't have control.

I'm talking myself more into being optimistic about playing the Cubs. If for no other reason than not having much choice.

I think it's good that the Cubs weren't firing on all cylinders and beat the Padres easily. I wouldn't say the Cubs or Brewers are playing their best baseball right now.

It seems the Brewers playoff struggles have come from not being able to score runs. I think putting pressure on them to score before the Padres got to the bullpen would have been tough. Granted, it looks like the Cubs defense would make them less susceptible to miscues that Brewers pounce on.

The biggest reason is the smell of urine that they had to deal with for the past week.

Quote from: tower912 on October 03, 2025, 05:23:20 AMJust glad they survived to play another day.

The Athletic compared each remaining team to a champion from the past. The Mariners were almost dead ringers for the 1996 Yankees, and the Tigers were compared to the 2006 Cardinals team that snuck into the postseason with an 83-79 record and then won it all (beating Detroit in the WS).

It doesn't look like either team has publicly named a Game 1 starter. With Woo not ready to go, I'm guessing Luis Castillo (or maybe Logan Gilbert) for the M's. Castillo had a midseason slump but pitched superbly down the stretch. Would Skubal be ready for Detroit or will they wait for Game 2 for him?

All indications from Detroit are that Skubal gets games 2 and 5.

So just Game 2 after the Mariners win in 3 or 4.
