Heh, I guess it was worth missing a half inning of the White Sox - Tigers game.

Nice job there by Big Z. Bad week for the Brewers. Get killed by the Phils then a rival has a no hitter in their own park.

Anyone watching today's Cubs/Astros game? Ted Lilly currently has a no-no through 6 innings. That's 15 consecutive hitless innings for the Cubs vs Astros in this series. If a miracle occurs and Lilly brings this one home it would be in the top 5 unlikeliest events in sports history.

In other news, Ned Yost got the boot with 12 games to go and the wild card lead.

lol, they were talking about getting rid of him before the season started, but then Milwaukee turned into a pretty good team. Now that they are bad again, I guess he finally got what was coming.

That was unexpected. yep. Grats to Zambrano after rotator cuff surgery, no easy feat.

Fixed it for you.

Brew Crew is sinking like a stone. They've lost 11 of 14 to turn a 5 game lead into a flat-footed tie. Phillies seem to have the schedule advantage. The Brewers have 6 of their last 12 against the Cubs while the Phillies have 6 against Atlanta and 3 each against the Nats and Marlins. Playing .500 ball might get the Phils into the playoffs.

Still, a massive panic move here. Firing a manager with 12 left while tied for a playoff spot? I doubt whether that's happened in baseball history.
