Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice




Milwaukee Brewers? More like Milwaukee Poo-ers.

















Get it? It's because they're poo poo.

Like, I get that the brewers were surprisingly the best team in baseball for the first half of the season.

No one at all expected them to be a better than .500 club, and no real fan had any reason to expect that they would be as good as they'd been.

But the last two weeks?
This is terrible, terrible baseball. This isn't even embarrassing. It's "what the gently caress am I seeing here" in professional sports as a whole.

Why?

Amen.

So the Tigers game is blacked out because of Fox exclusivity, but they can still show it on MLB.TV. Sure, whatever.

Replace "last two weeks" with "last month" and you have the Giants. For example:

Vogelsong is done for the day. Hasn't gotten a run of support since June 21. Seriously.

Per Giants, Vogelsong is first Giants pitcher since 1977 to receive no runs of support in four straight starts.

Vogelsong has given up eight runs in last four starts, lost them all thanks to zero runs of support. Makes getting #Cained look pleasant.

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

I think I read a review of that. Thought it was one of those baseball stories like "Pride of the Yankees", you know? But it's just about some crabby old sailors, stuck in this little town.

The most aggressive I've seen Ackley in a while, drives home Hart who was 2 feet away from hitting a home run to center field. See Ackley? Go aggressive early!

Edit: Mariners continue their streak of pathetically stranding runners during bases loaded situations. :(

Well, he let Benoit go for no reason and the Fister trade certainly look, uh, interesting, unless Robbie Ray really does pan out.

But yeah he's pretty good.
