Cubs are only here because of a bad strike call against the Padres, and it shows.

Best things about this game were the shapely woman wearing black in the first row behind home plate showing off her big league cleavage all night. Star of the game!!

In Milwaukee she is known as "Front row Amy". She even got a Bobble head.

Oh wow. Thanks for the info. I'm a Cardinals fan so don't watch the Brewers a ton. She's somewhat of a celebrity. Very unique woman. Very cool. Apparently she scores every pitch in a scorebook. Amazing!!

This team simply isn't good enough. They need a lot more pitching. They have all-star caliber hitters but they need a superstar to complete the lineup.

Shame on me. I really thought we could pull this one off, but these Brewers are like cockroaches that are only mutating. Pat and Ron are nearly predicting every shot.
