This series feels a lot like #brewers/#dbacks in 2011. The home team won every game in that series. Ultimately, it felt like being at home was what tipped the balance in each game. And these games are even closer. This series is giving me a lot of the same vibes. #NLDS #postseason

I mean, they're due to win one at one point. But also, I will wholly not be surprised if this ends up being one of those series where we need to win it with something big late in Milwaukee on Friday night. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Bad luck. Yeli hit it hard. Just bad luck all night. Hung in it the whole way, but they were that much better. And the series goes on. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Had to use the challenge there, too. Time for the Captain. Fresh from breaking the RBI streak. Oh boy. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

"It's been a stressful 38 pitches for King." Um, it's been a stressful 27 innings, Adam. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Would Brice Turang qualify as an unlikely hero type? #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Absolutely have to pinch run for him. What an eye. If only he had that kind of eye for challenges, mind you, but whatever. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Contreras has arguably had the best series of any of the #brewers, save a couple bad challenges ... including this one coming up here. #NLDS #postseason

Falling behind 0-2 to start the ninth is sub-ideal. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Just how much ninth inning magic does this #brewers team have in it? #NLDS #postseason

The revolutions caused by France nearly decapitated Pratt. It's a stretch, but follow me. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

As a #brewers fan, I far preferred the Brewers/#rockies series where they dominated them and swept them handily. #NLDS #postseason

I'm not sure how we'd match something like the whole Blink 182 thing in Milwaukee (and no, Roll Out The Barrel doesn't count). Have everyone sing Closer To Free? #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Tough situation here. Can't let 'em score here. Period. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Retiring Chourio in that situation feels oddly backbreaking. Quite symbolic at the least to get out the Game 2 hero in that situation, if you ask me. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Man, Hamilton had to labor for that knock. (There's a joke here about Mason Miller's wife, but I'll let it go.) #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Seems like it would be hard to enforce. That said, I could see a sharp agent negotiating for a bonus for daily proof of the use of a chastity belt. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

By the way, San Diego's towel-waving game has nothing on Milwaukee's. We wave ours with force. There, it's kinda like, "Eh, I guess." #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Pfeifer Sports (Dan Pfeifer) @pfeifersports.bsky.social · 15h

Two batters. One piece of solid contact on King. No baserunners. I mean, I hate to say it, and we still have the ninth, but this just kinda feels that much tougher on the road. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

I'm very surprised all these pitchers can throw so hard while they're pregnant. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Game 2 #padres: "We're going to try and use the best closer in baseball to get a six-out save." Game 3 Padres: "We're going to try to use a guy who isn't even a closer to get a six-out save." A #brewers fan can hope, right? #NLDS #postseason

Pfeifer Sports (Dan Pfeifer) @pfeifersports.bsky.social · 15h

I don't have high expectations from 7-8-9 here, honestly. But we know Chourio and Contreras will head to the plate again at least once in this game. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

"The entirety of this series has been played within two runs." And that's why we have so many heart hospitals in the Milwaukee area. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Need this one. #padres have done too much when they've had traffic. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Every #brewers pitcher has given up a hit in this one. #padres have been able to manufacture three runs and get the homer, too. #NLDS #postseason

An organ version of "They Not Like Us" is something. Baseball, man. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Letting Cronenworth get hits in this game feels like part of the dialog if you lose. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

I agree with Pierzynski. He would have thrown that ball through Taylor. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

"Did he tap his helmet" feels like baseball's version of "what's a catch" in the #NFL, just sillier. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

I mean, I hate to say it feels like we're about a run worse than the #padres tonight, but that's what it feels like. Then again, it felt that way throughout Game 2, too. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

STOP THE PRESSES. Christian Yelich has a #postseason RBI. I repeat, CHRISTIAN YELICH HAS A POSTSEASON RBI. #brewers #NLDS

Finally, a tough play in the outfield that a #brewers #postseason opponent doesn't make a play on. We were due a break. Need to take advantage, though. #NLDS

Um, A.J.? The #cheesehead actually first appeared at a #brewers game in the late 80's. Know your history, bud. #NLDS #postseason

Good regular season team. Perhaps not enough firepower in the #postseason. This has been the dialog on the #brewers for quite some time. #NLDS

I'd almost like to see a slo-mo on the contact there. I wonder if a Hunter Pence kind of thing happened with the broken bat. #brewers #NLDS #postseason

Pfeifer Sports (Dan Pfeifer) @pfeifersports.bsky.social · 15h

I think the broken bat put weird spin on the ball, too. In real time, I wondered if it hit Boegarts because of the way it bounced. A lot going on there. Again, that feels like it's just some bad luck. #brewers #NLDS #postseason
