Dominance, anyone?

We all knew Yovani Gallardo was amazing, but last afternoon, he further humiliated an already distraught Pirates club. Not only did they extend their losing streak to the brewers to 15, it was in such an inglorious way.

If you did not watch the game ( or listen on the radio as I do on the way to work) shame on you. Yo pitched 8 innings of perfection, giving up 2 hits, that's 2 away from a no-hitter, mind you. "Well with such power, how much did the Brewers win by?" I'll tell you, my foolish, imaginary friend; the score was 1-0 Brew Crew.

You pump that fist, you deserve it

"Wow, 1-0! Was it the beast Braun that gave us our edge over the Scalawags?" Hohoho, my friend, not this time. Although Braun is an all powerful Brewer machine, he has some class. I believe he refused to hit well in yesterday's game; in a way to defy the Pirates after getting hit by a kid.

Allow me to explain. How do you think it feels, to pitch a brilliant game, not allow any of the Brewers to score, and lost 1-0? You can ask Sheets about now that feels, he sure knows. But to add on to it, the only scoreing was from the oposing pitcher; not a single, not driving another teammate in, no. He did it all himself, smashing a homerun and laughing the whole way around the bases. (speculation) Simply. Amazing.

May 4th and 5th, the Crew will travel to Pittsburgh where they will no doubt extend their streak to 17. But this time we will do it in the faces of the fans, in defiance. Again, the wrath of Braun. I have a feeling this is going to be a very good season, our Crew are playing with feeling and guts, that means 1 thing, Division, maybe even a Pennant championship. Yeah, I said it.
