As in the number two seed? We do. Tonight the Brewers ended the season in the most predictable way possible – by beating up on Pittsburgh. That win, and the current 7-0 drubbing the D-Backs are taking by the Dodgers, has secured Milwaukee as the home site for a handful of NLDS games. For those who got to witness the game in person, it was the final of 96 wins for a remarkable season and part of a year that I – and many Milwaukee fans – will cherish for a lifetime.
Did I mention that I haven’t gotten a chance to see a single game at Miller Park this year? Yes, it’s true. For months I have been parked on my couch, cutting out of work early and neglecting the last dying embers of my social life to bring Brewers ‘news’ (put in quotes here because it is mostly just bad puns and jokes about Mark Kotsay’s hot wife ) to the masses. For the entirety of the summer I have been drinking pricey beer and swearing at Cardinals from my living room, because I never had the chance to do that in Miller Park.
Living up north sucks.
Anyways, tonight’s game was quite a show. The Brewers franchise managed to set a couple of records in the process, as well. By securing the win behind six strong innings from Greinke, the new all-time Brewer win record will sit at 96 for at least a season. It was Greinke’s 16th win, and his four K’s brought his strikeout total up to 201, marking the first time in Brewers history the staff had two 200 strikeout pitchers. Attendance clocked in near capacity, which helped bring the year-long total at Miller Park at a record 3,073,373 for the year.
It could’ve been 3,073,374 but my work schedule, paltry bank account and the hour-and-a-half drive down from Sloshkosh made it very difficult.
Regardless, the pitching wasn’t the only part of the game on Beast Mode tonight as the Brew Crew’s offense turned in seven runs on seven hits.
