Help Me Figure Out Which Team Scored 11 Runs In One Inning In Marlins-Brewers

Since the Toronto Raptors have Drake cheering them on, the Milwaukee Bucks need their own celebrity row. Green Bay lineman David Bakhtiari has filled a spot more than once, and he’s excelled at acting as a Rally Packer for the crowd. All he has to do is chug beers, and the crowd gets fired up....
Mets Fan Accidentally Showers Ryan Braun With Overpriced Beer
Mets first baseman Pete Alonso was smashing things pitches early on Sunday against the Brewers.

Christian Yelich Was One Foot Away From The Perfect Home Run
It’s early enough in the MLB season that pitchers still feel comfortable in trying to test the red-hot Christian Yelich whenever he’s at the plate. Last year’s NL MVP hit two more dingers on Saturday against the Dodgers, which brought him to a league-leading total of 13 home runs. Both homers were p...
The Cardinals Were Dumb Enough To Pitch To Christian Yelich Again
How did they not learn? One day after Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich smacked three taters and dropped seven RBI on them in a 10-7 win, the St. Louis Cardinals chose to pitch to him again. Why, idiots?...
Christian Yelich Has Been A Human Fireball Against The Cardinals
When Christian Yelich homered in the first four games of the season, all of which were against the St. Louis Cardinals, it was a fun curio—a hot streak carried over from the Brewers right fielder’s MVP season last year and a great player being great in an unusual way. Gabe Fernandez even wrote about...
Christian Yelich Is On Pace To Hit 162 Dingers This Season
It’s easy to make a wisecrack like this article’s headline on Opening Day, when a player smashes one out of the park to begin the season. But when that statement still rings true by the time game four rolls around, the dad joke goes from silly to pretty damn special. ...
Vile Cardinals Thwarted By Lorenzo Cain's Game-Ending Dong-Robbery
Opening Day, baby! Many good teams—the Yankees, the Dodgers, the Phillies, the Astros, the A’s—looked impressive; certain lousy teams—looking straight at you, Orioles—looked inept in a way that is possible to find charming in the very first game of the year. But wherever your team fell in all of thi...
Brewers Improve Team Through Novel Strategy Of Spending Money On Talented Player
After a long, icy stretch in which the most noteworthy signing was probably Troy Tulowitzki, the hot stove finally flashed some sparks on Wednesday night, as the Milwaukee Brewers got out their checkbooks to pick up a top-notch free agent.

Craig Counsell Pulled His Game 5 Starter After One Batter, On Purpose
Left-handed pitcher Wade Miley appeared to be the Brewers’ starter for Game 5 of the NLCS today. And technically, he was.

Manny Machado's Wonderful Slide Finally Puts Everyone To Bed
The Dodgers scored a run in the first inning of tonight’s NLCS Game 4, and then the Brewers matched them with a run in the fifth, sending starter Rich Hill to go terrorize some Halloween treats in the dugout. And then, in a bizarre occurrence only rarely seen at a baseball game, a temporary black ho...
Manny Machado Probably Kicked Jesús Aguilar's Ankle On Purpose
Manny Machado is back in the postseason spotlight for the wrong reasons. In the bottom of the 10th, the Dodger hit a grounder to shortstop for what should have been a routine out at first.

Cody Bellinger Celebrates Impressively Athletic Catch With Swan Dive Slide
The Dodgers are currently trying to knot up this series against the Brewers at two games apiece in extra innings, and Cody Bellinger is doing everything in his power to make sure his team comes away with the win. In the top of the 10th, Lorenzo Cain looked like he got a leadoff hit off of Los Angele...
Orlando Arcia Is Hilarious
It was amusing when Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia, one of the very worst regular-season hitters in the league and a guy Milwaukee sent to the minors multiple times in 2018, guided them to a Game 163 victory over the Cubs with four hits. What he’s done since then is downright hysterical....
The Dodgers Are Pulling The Plug On Yasmani Grandal After Nightmarish Game 3
Yasmani Grandal has been having an absolutely terrible postseason for the Dodgers, batting .136 through seven playoff games. But the Game 3 shutout against the Brewers was a tipping point for fans and manager Dave Roberts. At the post-game press conference, Roberts announced that backup catcher Aust...
Manny Machado Had Some Questionable Slides Against The Brewers
As expected, Manny Machado’s return to the postseason was not without some controversial antics from the All-Star infielder.

Brewers Reliever Brandon Woodruff Bonked A Huge Dinger Off Clayton Kershaw

The Brewers Have Played This All Perfectly

The Rockies' Playoff Run Was A Four-Game Whimper
If anyone thought that the Colorado Rockies’ extra-innings victory in the wild-card game portended more exciting playoff action to come, those people were dead wrong.
