Great start to the season. This team looks really good so far and I like what I'm seeing.

I want to believe this is the real Brice Turang we're getting.

Yes! And tied for best run differential, as well. Oh, and despite losing Burnes and Woodruff, the Crew's pitching staff has allowed the LEAST runs in the league.

Who knows how long it will last, but these first 20 games have been a blast!

Here's the snapshot of an epic Contreras at-bat versus Verlander.
It ended with a 3 run shot on the 13th pitch just a couple of minutes ago.

Enjoy, Brewers fans...

While Verlander might be washed and have a noodle arm now he's still married to Kate Upton.

Josh or Lane noted the other day that Yelich hasn’t hit a Home Run since coming off the IL - still true? He is definitely “seeing the ball well” right now.


Another home series without Uecker on the radio recently. I would appreciate a heads up whenever he does come in to call a game. I don’t always remember to check.

No he had one HR vs the Cubs.

Uecker plays it by ear on when he calls a game I belive being 90 years old it pretty much is work when he decides to.

Heard on the radio that (iirc) July 9th is “Baseball Card Day” @ AFF. Always a chance Topps actually creates something unique for those, or a chance they didn’t.

Hoping to be working around a solid Brewers fan bar in Oconto County again this August, we’ll see. Always nice to catch a game with everyday fans.

Team is looking great in general though of course the Phils series was disappointing they did seem to play them pretty close at least.

What a catch by Frelick last night to save the game after the bullpen tried to self destruct and blow a 6 run lead in the 9th.

Cruising along here. Nice to have won a few in a row while the Cards are hot too.

I live in Milwaukee and I'm still not convinced they're not just bum slayers, they always seem to be playing tomato cans/teams under .500 and doing well against them. The last good team they faced (Philly), they were swept. Am I wrong?

19-18 vs teams over .500, which is 4th in the NL behind Philly, LA, and SD.

So yeah…although there was that sweep by Philly recently, I’d say you’re wrong LoL.

Jackson Chourio, 20, is the youngest player to hit a grand slam since Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. in 1989.

I forget the exact date his hot streak started but it was mentioned Chourio has been hitting over .300 for a couple weeks now.

Thank you to Freddy Peralta for giving the real Jackson Chourio. Telling the kid to relax.

Wonder if Chourio can stay hot now in 2nd half of season and make a run at the ROY.
