As if there was any doubt, the Milwaukee Brewers came back home tonight and handled business in Game 3 of the NLDS. It was an amazing game, one that will make for a nice inclusion on the 2008 Commemorative DVD that all fans attending tonight's game (and I would assume tomorrow's as well) can get for free thanks to a voucher handed out on our way into the ballpark.
Dave Bush was on top of his game and while a lot of us thought he may have been pulled a bit earlier than necessary in this one, he did a great job through 5.1 IP. Dale Sveum pulled the trigger on Mitch Stetter in the 5th, and though a run did score on the ground out, two runs didn't score on a home run. All of Sveum's moves worked tonight, even calling Torres in from the bullpen to work (or should I say labor through) the 9th.
I don't want to spend too much time posting right now as I want to watch the end of the other NLDS (yes, the entire series, not just this game). What I do want to leave you all with is an illustration of the dedication and passion my fellow fans have for this team.
