NLDS GAME 5 – October 07, 2011

  1. Victor Rojas' only postseason work for TBS. I think he should have been on TBS for the 2012 and 2013 postseason games on TBS, instead of Dick Stockton.

  2. I'll never forget this game. I was 13 watching it at home with my family, my friend was on his way over to my house and he said he could hear us screaming from almost a block away. Good times

  3. And they reward Tony Plush winning the first playoff series in a gazillion years for this city by shipping him off the next season.

  4. Interview with Craig Counsell brought me here. If there's one thing I can say, "fuck yeah!"

  5. Between Tony TP Flush and Ryan Needles Braun….I am glad this team got their ass handed to them by the Cardinals.

  6. Can't remember his name, but had it not been for that one pitcher who seemed to breakdown towards the end of the year being sent out there again and again we would have won the championship. Texas was beatable as hell. And what makes it worse is that one pitcher was a horse for us for most of the year, but broke down later in the season. Got sent out there in game 6 of the NLCS and gave up a grandslam in the first inning.

  7. Watched this game at home n was definitely on the edge of my seat, realized this game played out like the movie Wild Thang with Charlie sheen and Eddie Griffin! Morgan with the clutch swing! Players couldn't even talk for post game interview! Most intense and electric moment for me as a fan.

  8. It very very rarely gets any better than this. Nyjer Morgan slaps one up the middle in the bottom of the 10th for a walk off to an NLCS berth.

    I wonder if anyone had money on that as a prop bet or something. The odds of that bet would’ve been astronomical, not because Morgan wasn’t a good hitter or anything, but because the majority of the time, Gomez would’ve been starting in CF.

    Anyway, that dude will NEVER forget this moment, and that’s pretty awesome.

  9. I've been to well over 100 Brewers games. 95% of them from 1977-1982. County Stadium🏟 was my summer home. This was later than 1982, but one of my favorite memories was seeing Robin Yount get his 3,000th career hit! It wasn't a playoff, or anything like that, just getting to see a historic player have an achievement like that was AWESOME! There have been many many many many games that I have been blessed to have seen. Seeing Nolan Ryan pitch. Fred Lynn, George Brett, Jim Rice, Rod Carew, and all of my Brewers was a kid's DREAM! This series, I was older, now. 30 ➕ years old as compared to being 9-14 for the 77-82 years. I was on the edge of my seat and when Morgan slapped that single into CF I lost my mind! It brought back the 1982 days and it was glorious. But as they have done, again and again…..so close, oh so close! And boy does it hurt!

  10. This was a team that for the most part came up together. Prince Fielder, Ricky Weeks, Johnathan Lucroy, Ryan Braun, Corey Hart, and a couple more. They played in the minors together, came up within years of each other. EVERYONE involved in this team was fired up! I really thought they had it. So close, so close. Betancourt, Morgan, Hairston, and our unofficial spark plug played their butts off this year. Before all of you whiners for Kemp and the Dudgers cry more, just enough! Your team has bought title after title, isn't that enough? 🤔 Nah, like all of your gangs your entitled attitudes seem to think you own everything. Pathetic!
