Game 121: Nationals 8, Brewers 3

the type of car wreck
that's too difficult to watch
but you have to see

eager Prince hacking
nine pitches in four at-bats
four walks yesterday
~Scott

Pre-season promise
'Cubs class of the division'
Love to pass them up

Hardy, Braun, Fielder

Cam, Casey clean up

Game 6: Brewers 5, Cubs 8

Soup walks in the park
Easter of 87
This surely is not

Walk, Walk, Walk, Walk, Walk
Walk, Walk, Walk, Walk, Run, Walk, Run
Walk, Run, Walk, Run, LOST!

This is my haiku about the game the Brewers played against the Cubs last night.
It has a few extras syllables in it, I know. Don't worry though. It isn't a big deal at all.
This bloating is nothing compared to Suppan's salary.

Rocket! Flying far. . .
Above the far outfield wall
Grand Slam traded for sac-fly.

Game 5: Brewers 5, Cubs 6

When we lead by one
It really doesn't take much
To throw it away.

Rushed delivery
Kicks dirt in umpire's eye
Injustice at first

Villanueva?
More like Villa-viejo
New year, old story.

Villanueva
Hits sour note in the ninth
"Hells Bells" are silent

No ticket this year
Sitting at home on my couch

Rickie hesitates
Then makes mad dash for home plate
Miller Park erupts

Let us not forget
on this celebration day
Wes Helms' hit sank Mets

Like a prize fighter
Bloodied but not defeated
Brewers still standing

Get outta here-- gone!!!!
Braun and Sabathia mean
No football today

Opening Day hopes
Realized through seasoned play
October's sweet call

Winners and losers.

Sept. 18 - Brewers 6, Cubs 7 (12 innings)

Can't hold four run lead
Two outs in ninth, no one on--
Is it Dale Sveum's fault?

Forgive sexist line:
Dear Brewers, save us pain:
Kick us in the balls

Winning by four runs
Two outs in the ninth inning
No need to worry ...

Perfect game denied
Lonely run found in the eight
Modicum of pride
