Not to overanalyze, but rain delay games have an odd feel to them. Besides the aspects with pitchers, position players have to keep their head in the game.

I know Cards2468 will be there for the duration, hope the bulk of the crowd sticks around.

Haha. Only TLR would do this in the NLCS. I can see it happening.

First sign of rain I'm going home. J/k.

Initially I thought it would be better if we just move games back and eat up the travel day, that way we have Carp, Garcia and EJax at home... but in the probable case in which we return to Milwaukee, we'd probably have to pitch Lohse and then either Carp on 3 days rest or go with Westbrook... and Lohse+Westbrook in Milwaukee make me feel very sick.

Pray we can get this game in and win. Then we can pitch EJax and Carp in Milwaukee.

Bring plastic baggies for your cell phone and wallet, then sit out in the rain. Don't bring an umbrella. That person sucks.

Westbrook isn't on the roster.

Don't even own an umbrella. I wear baseball hats.

I wouldn't mind seeing this game rained out. I don't like when the elements help dictate who wins and loses.

the Brewers are going to be just as disadvantaged as us, so I'd prefer we play and have Carp available for game 7 on full rest
