I'm personally tired of seeing snowflakes in the World Series. Baseball is an outdoor game, but I like to see baseball at it's best, not battling the elements as well as your opponent.

!!!!OOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Serious squeeze on Verlander tonight. No way he throws that 2-0 pitch to Cruz if he gets a single call earlier in the at-bat. Brooks baseball.net says he had nine strikes called balls and zero balls called strikes. That was a concerted effort by Tim Welke considering he started calling virtually every pitch a strike after the second rain delay. Hopefully ther is mor consistency from behind the plate for the rest of the series.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Let's go Crew!
Hopefully Markum can figure it out tonight and the boys can keep it rolling. Life doesn't get much better in WI. Perfect weather, October baseball with the roof open. Braun is showing the world just how good he is. Let's go Brewers!!

Someone please stick a fork in the Tigers. At the going rate, they'll have Bubba Trammell and Bobby Higginson playing in the corners by the end of the week.

What are those goiters on Alexi Ogando's face? That man makes big Gheorghe Muresan look pretty.

I've never seen a team collectively come up so small over the course of a series as the Tigers. Seriously, Don Kelly has been their best hitter. Don Kelly. That's embarrassing, injuries or not.

Fister. Not small 6'8".
