In Milwaukee, a little history and a little douche-baggery was made in a 2-1 Brewers win in 12 innings. In the top of the 6th, the Brewers turned a 5-4-3 triple play to end the Giants rally. It was the first triple play turned by Milwaukee since 1999 against the Cubs. In the bottom of the 12, Prince Fielder hit a walkoff homerun on a line drive to right field, but that wasn’t the headline for me. As Fielder rounded the bases he repeatedly pointed to the dugout and untucked his shirt as he rounded second base; although, the Brewers do that after every win because they are slobs. But why was Fielder pointing to the dugout? It wasn’t to excite the team or something like that, but it was to remind them of a choreographed celebration for them to perform as he crossed home plate. As Fielder approached home, he jumped up and as his massive body hit the ground his teammates fell over like bowling pins in unison.

Classy winners

Most people will say this is ‘cool’ and ‘witty’, but I think it’s incredibly childish, especially since the Brewers are 14 games out of first place and had already lost the first two games of this series. Way to show up the league like this is the XFL, Prince. What a joke. This was obviously planned by the team, but who knows for how long. This is Fielder’s first walkoff homerun of 2009, so they could have planned this months ago. Well, they won’t be playing in the postseason this year, so Fielder and the Brewers will have plenty of time to think of a new act for next year! As you can tell, this really annoyed me, and I am really looking forward to Monday’s series opener in Milwaukee as the Cardinals come to town. I know St. Louis already has a grudge with the immature players on this team, so they will come into this series fully prepared for battle.
