Splitsville

The Brewers win a thrilling game yesterday 8-7 over the hated Cubbies. Bill Hall is simply a stud. The 3B/SS is delivering on all the potential the club ever saw. Since getting consistent playing time he's been just phenominal. In the month of June alone, he's hitting .329/.352/.694 with 7HR and 13RBI. In the beginning of the season it was Clark and Overbay carrying this club, now it's Hall and Lee with Clark still putting up solid numbers. They have still outscored thier opponents 311-299. This team is better than it looks. A team with a similar run scoring situation are the MN Twins who come into town (320-289). The Twins are struggling right now and they bring Radke to the mound tonight who is having problems of his own. I predict a win for the Crew tonight and in the series as well. It's time for the Crew to jump on teams when they are down and take this series at home. Shane and I would have gone down for this series as we did last year, however my son's big 5 year b-day bash is this weekend and it's going to be a blast. Have a great weekend all!

Didn't you read the interview with TC Bear this week (http://www.startribune.com/stories/509/5470727.html)?

Bernie Brewer is the prey and is going down! That alone will spark the Twins to a 3-game sweep.

PS: TC just called me and said after Bernie Brewer, those stupid sausages are next!

1. When TC steps foot into Miller Park, he will be so awestruck with the fact that baseball is played outside, he will simply weep and thank Bernie Brewer for allowing him the honor of being there.

2. The sausage races are a sacred part of baseball. Should anyone be stupid enough to mess with them, league sanctions will come down hard (just ask Randall Simon)

3. What the hell does a teddy bear have to do with the Twins? The Twins should can him and bring in someone along the lines of Morganna the kissing bandit. One of the greatest mascots of all time, and talk about twins (nudge nudge, wink wink)!
