Brewers postseason Breaking T shirts thread
Just about every day now, our friends at Breaking T are dropping a new shirt to celebrate the latest moment from this magical Brewers postseason run. To alleviate the number of posts we’re making, we’ve created this thread to keep all of the shirts in one spot — it will be pinned to our homepage […]
Jake Bauers vs. Blake Snell: A Breakdown
Last week, I wrote an article breaking down NLCS MVP Jake Bauers’ 12-pitch walk against Yoshinobu Yamamoto. At the time, I called it “the best at-bat of the NLCS.” That turned out to be incredibly presumptuous: just two days later, he worked an 11-pitch at-bat against Blake Snell that ended not with a walk, but with a […]
The Brewers’ Brandon Woodruff Dilemma: Will the veteran ace pitch in the World Series?
On the 4th of July, Brandon Woodruff threw what he and many thought would certainly be his last pitch of 2026 and potentially the last pitch of his entire career. Soon, it was revealed that doctors believed surgery would be required to again fix the shoulder capsule in his throwing arm. Two major shoulder surgeries […]
Every position player’s top moment from the NLCS
The Brewers’ sweep of the Dodgers in the NLCS was a complete team effort. While there were heroes in each game and throughout the series, almost every position player stepped up at some point in the series and made a big play for the team. Let’s take a look at each position player’s contribution in […]
Aaron Ashby is on a historic heater
Aaron Ashby did not have his best season in 2026. He pitched a ton: he tied for sixth in the league in appearances, and only Houston’s AJ Blubaugh surpassed his 87 bullpen innings this season (Ashby added another 2 1/3 innings in one appearance as an opener). Ashby’s 89 1/3 total innings are his most […]
MLB announces World Series game times
While the Brewers wait to learn whether they will face the Cleveland Guardians or the Tampa Bay Rays in the 2026 World Series, Major League Baseball has already announced the game times for the entire best-of-seven series. It’s pretty simple: All seven games are slated to begin just after 7 p.m. CT, with every game […]
Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 10/16-10/22
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. You can now call them, for the first time ever, your NL Champion Milwaukee Brewers! How about that series? We’ll have plenty of time to discuss things as we await an AL Champion, with the World Series set to begin in Milwaukee on Friday, October 23. Feel free to use […]
Breaking T releases new three new shirts for your NL Champion Brewers
The Brewers are set for the franchise’s first World Series appearance since 1982, and their first appearance as an NL team ever! To celebrate, our friends at Breaking T have dropped a trio of new shirts. Be sure to check them out below. Milwaukee has won the pennant in 2026 and will play for a […]
Brewers head to the World Series for the first time since 1982
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers have finally done it for the first time in 44 years. After the franchise’s lone World Series appearance as an American League team back in 1982, they’re headed back to the Fall Classic as a National League team for the first time ever in 2026. To do it, they played […]
NLCS Game 4 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (3-0) @ Los Angeles Dodgers (0-3)
After a sweep at the hands of the Dodgers in the 2025 NLCS, the Brewers are looking to reverse the sweep in 2026, as they have a 3-0 series lead heading into Thursday night’s Game 4 at Dodger Stadium. To get to this point, the Brewers have displayed a balanced (and surprisingly homer-heavy) attack from […]
The glue that’s been holding it all together: Garrett Mitchell
Doubted from the very start, Garrett Mitchell fell from a projected top 10 draft pick to the Milwaukee Brewers at No. 20 during the 2020 Major League Baseball draft. Battling injuries and diabetes, Mitchell has not had the easiest path to the Brewers. Entering his fifth season in a Brewers uniform, the most Mitchell had […]
Bauers’ blast has Brewers on the brink of World Series
Box Score In Game 2 of the NLCS on Monday, Jake Bauers had what was one of the best at-bats in the history of the franchise. Against Yoshinobu Yamamoto, one of the best postseason pitchers of his generation, he worked a 12-pitch walk, which was followed by a two-run single that chased Yamamoto and sent […]
NLCS Game 3 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (2-0) @ Los Angeles Dodgers (0-2)
Things couldn’t have gone better for the Brewers in Milwaukee to start the NLCS. For the first time in their history, they’ve got a 2-0 lead in the Championship Series. Things get trickier today, though, as the series shifts to California and the glaring advantage that the Dodgers hold in starting pitching could become more […]
Brewers’ Turang, Chourio among NL Gold Glove finalists
For the 70th time, Major League Baseball has announced its Rawlings Gold Glove finalists, listing three players at each position. Brewers second baseman Brice Turang and left fielder Jackson Chourio are both among that group of finalists in the National League. During the 2026 regular season, the Brewers were above league average when it came […]
Breaking T releases new “William Contreras: Crown Him” and “Christian Yelich Captain” shirts
The Brewers just keep rolling in the postseason, and that is in no small part due to backstop William Contreras and the first-ever Brewers captain, Christian Yelich. After a 3-for-4 game with a homer and three go-ahead/game-tying hits, Contreras is now hitting .391/.481/.783 with three homers, five RBIs, four runs, and four walks to three […]
Jake Bauers v. Yoshinobu Yamamoto: A Breakdown
Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto is one of the best pitchers, and one of the best postseason performers, in baseball. In Game 2 of last year’s NLCS, Yamamoto mystified the Brewers offense, throwing 111 pitches en route to a complete-game victory. Less than two months ago, he went six innings and struck out nine in a […]
Wild Bill is carrying the Brewers
A cursory glance at the numbers over the past two seasons will tell you that William Contreras is still a good major league catcher, but that he’s taken a little step back. After he was the league’s best catcher in 2024 at age 26 (he made First Team All-MLB and finished fifth in NL MVP […]
Contreras slugs Brewers to Game 2 win, commanding series lead over Dodgers
Another Brewers playoff game, another nine innings filled with stress and heightened blood pressure across the state of Wisconsin. Game 2 of the NLCS was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams scoring in the first, third, and fifth innings. But it was once again the Brewers who came out on top, 7-4. The Dodgers were […]
NLCS Game 2 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (1-0) vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (0-1)
The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to take a 2-0 series lead in an LCS for the first time in franchise history. They’ve had two chances in the LCS before (2011 and 2018) and they lost both of those games. Today is their chance to change that. It’ll be a tough task with Yoshinobu Yamamoto on […]
In battle of aces, Dodgers flinch first as Brewers win Game 1 of NLCS
Unsurprisingly, in a battle of two aces, Jacob Misiorowski and Tarik Skubal, the expected NL Cy Young winner and the two-time reigning AL Cy Young winner, runs were hard to come by in this pitchers’ duel. But ultimately, in Game 1 of the NLCS, the Brewers came out on top 2-1. The Dodgers struck first […]
NLCS Game 1 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (0-0) vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (0-0)
Rematch. A chance for redemption. A chance to rewrite the ending from last season. For the second consecutive year, the Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers will face off in the National League Championship Series with the right to advance to the World Series on the line. Each of the last three times the Brewers […]
2026 MLB Championship Series open thread
And then there were four! We’re down to the last four teams vying for the World Series, and by the middle of next week, we’ll have that matchup set. The Brewers are set to take on the Dodgers for the National League pennant, while the American League features the Rays against the Guardians. This space […]
Brewers, Dodgers announce NLCS rosters
The Brewers have announced their roster for the National League Championship Series, and it’s the same as the Division Series roster, which should surprise no one. The likelihood that the Brewers were going to make any changes was always low. We’ll still do a quick rundown. Catchers (2): William Contreras, Gary Sánchez Infielders (6): Jake […]
2026 MLB Championship Series Preview
After eight days of Division Series games, we have arrived at the League Championship Series, and the top four seeds all advanced. Rest didn’t affect these teams much as they rode first-round byes through the round. The next round begins today, with the NLCS taking center stage before the ALCS kicks off tomorrow. It’s best-of-seven […]
The Haters’ Guide to the Los Angeles Dodgers
I usually write serious articles. This is not one of them. ————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— No team deserves to be trash-talked like the team that ruined baseball. Last year, I wrote a series of satirical articles poking fun at each of the NL Central teams, including the Brewers. Then the Brewers broke the franchise record for wins in two […]
