I'm actually trying to root for the Cardinal but they make it imposible.Come on Brewers!!
"Ump is a drama queen. C'mon man. Nobody was spitting on you."
"Yadi just went [expletive] OFF. I'm proud."
-from Cards message board
For the Reds, we really should root for a 25 inning game, and two or three pitcher's arms to fall off. Then a suspended game, to play on one of their off days. Then we might get right back in this thing.

Sheesh, 4 more unearned runs vs. the Cards tonight.
Baseball is like church. Many attend, few understand
Cards win 8 to 7, Dotel with the save. Reds gain a game, and I feel a little sick being sorta happy the Cardinals won.

If Yadi did spit on the umpire, regardless if it was intentional or not, he should be suspended.
This might have been one of the more crazier games I have seen all year.
I just saw it for the first time. Looked like a close strike call which didn't warrant Yadi's explosion. I thought it would be well out of the zone.
That said, I really don't think Yadi bumped him that much. And I wonder how much spit did fly. Just looked like a tantrum to me.
It also kind of looked like dramatics from the home plate umpire. I can understand why Yadi was mad because that ball wasn't called a strike all night long but he can't lose his cool.
By the way... Dotel can still bring it against right handed batters. Even though he is 1000 years old, right handed batters are only hitting .143 against him.
I think this is the truth. I have never in my entire life seen a manager/coach and a collective professional team complain as much as the Cards do. It's unbelievable. The Cards have such an amazing history, tradition and organizational philosophy when it comes to playing baseball. But class? They could use an enormous intervention there as I'd have them in last place."The Cardinals fashion themselves as the keepers of baseball etiquette....That was uncalled for. It's just bush league, that's what it is. Bush league. ....Once again, they're nothing if not predictable, complain about everything, but that's Cardinal's baseball."
PS, I'm distraught I missed this game. I would have loved to have seen it. If the highlights go up somewhere (especially from the Brewers telecast) please let me know.
haha that was a classic post game interview. He called the Brewers fans idiots, lol
