By chain-smoking, obviously. And when the baseball starts, it'll definitely be the Sudden Departure anniversary that I'm commemorating. I wonder if my white jumpsuit got lost in the laundry, I gotta find it.

It's the 14th anniversary of the Sudden Departure. How are you going to commemorate it?

(Before this gets out of control, I consider it a superhuman skill for any athlete to program themselves to just let a pitch him them).

If Brice Turang lets the pitch hit him, we're tied.

It's a loss instead.

I do not know. But no.

That is considered a "grounded into double play" because of the nature of the forces, and LOL.

Dodgers' top 4 starters have, combined, 30 seasons in the majors. They've qualified for the ERA total, combined, four times.

The fact that they're all healthy at the same time right now is either a very well executed plan, or just atrocious luck for Milwaukee.

Me: This crowd is kinda subdued, which makes sense after just playing a fifth game against a rival two days ago.

Unnamed media member: They should bring out Counsell.

Not gonna lie, I saw this and immediately thought news of Todd Rosiak getting a sandwich from Pat Murphy before today's media availability had already become a national story.

but I want sandwich details goddammit

If you still have Twitter the TAMUpolice account is gold during the games. Case in point dude had a water jug of whiskey and a BAC .337 how was he not dead?

By my rough count using Baseball Reference as a guide, there are 28 players still with us who played for the Milwaukee Braves at some point, most prominently Joe Torre, Wade Blasingame, Phil Roof and Felipe Alou.

Sandy Alomar began his playing career with the Milwaukee Braves in 1964-65.

OK but why did I reflexively mutter to myself "run the damn ball" when I saw this graphic?

Sal Frelick of the Milwaukee Brewers leaps to make a catch in the outfield. He’s wearing the team’s road gray uniform. The outfield wall behind him is dark green with a bright yellow 410 on the padding to mark the distance from home plate.
