Brewers VS Dodgers Was A Fun Series

 Many people were wondering what we would learn about the Milwaukee Brewers as they took on the Los Angeles Dodgers in Milwaukee. Over the years in the regular season The Brewers have always played the Dodgers tough. Milwaukee lost the first two games of the series, but hung in and won the last two games for a split.

This series saw these two different divisional leaders battle hard. Both teams are loaded with talent, but the Dodgers lineup is tough to deal with everyday. From top to bottom they have some of the best hitters in baseball. There is no easy out in their lineup and you must pitch carefully to each batter. If not you can find yourself down a lot of runs quickly.


Milwaukee has pieced together their pitching staff this year, but the bullpen has been one of the better ones in baseball. With Devin Williams back and healthy Milwaukee’s bullpen has become even better. So, what did Brewers fans learn from this series?


If your a Brewers fan like me, you learned that Milwaukee will never quit playing or give up against anyone. Down two games in the series they could have gotten swept, but the battled every game in this series. Earning a spilt is huge for the Brewers and will help them later when the playoffs get here.


Make no mistake the Dodgers are one of the best teams in baseball, but a split gives the Brewers some confidence against them in the future. Series like this don’t mean alot right now, but in the bigger picture wins like this can only grow your confidence. Only time will tell what impact this series has had on them. As Brewers fans we will take a spilt with the Dodgers any day of the week.

Team USA Contines To Flex Their Muscle As They Add Another Gold Medal In Basketball

 Everyone thought Team USA would win Gold in Men's Basketball and that is exactly what they did. France fought hard throughout the game, but fell short by a score of 98-87. Stephen Curry tossed in 24 points to help Team USA capture the Gold. Without Curry Team USA maynot had won Gold.

In the last two games Curry tossed in 60 points. Lebron James was named MVP which he  deserved. Love him or hate him James gave one of his best efforts ever. He played all of his roles perfect. From leader to coach James was there for every player on the team. 

Steve Kerr is another whole different story. As coach of Team USA he has taken a lot of heat for his rotations in games. What people do not get is with all that talent not everyone will play as much as they want. It's the nature of the beast.

Team USA won the gold medal so hopefully Steve Kerr won't take as  much heat. The gap is closing between the USA and the world in basketball. Right now though Team USA is still at the top of the mountain.

Aaron Judge In A Class By Himself In 2024

 No matter how you look at it Aaron Judge this season is a lock for the MVP in the American League. The only way he is not winning it is if he gets injured. He has amassed 41 home runs and over 100 RBI's already this season.

This season I have been able to catch some Yankees game and what Judge is doing is very impressive. He is approaching Barry Bonds type numbers this season. Teams are starting to get afraid of him so they are walking him intentionally, so they won't have to pitch to him. That's probably the best compliment you can give any player.

The New York Yankees will go as far as Aaron Judge can take them, but he will need help. As great as Judge has played this season he will need others to step up in the lineup. If that doesn't happen teams will continue to pitch around him just like they did Barry Bonds.

Aaron Judge will continue his torrid streak, but I don't know if it will be enough to get the Yankees a pennant. Judge wants more then home runs and MVP's he wants to win championships. Every year the window closes more so he knows he needs to get them now before it's too late.
