Manny Parra...*sigh.*
This one was over early, as Manny Parra allowed five earned runs on six hits and five walks in just 2.2 innings, including walking Aaron Cook, the opposing pitcher, with the bases loaded, TWICE. (John Axford would later do it a third time.)
At the plate, the Brewers managed just five hits, one of them being a solo home run by Ryan Braun. Prince Fielder and Mike Cameron (who finished with two doubles) reached in the ninth to drive in a second run and become the only Brewers to reach base twice in the game as the Brewers managed just one walk and an HBP to go with those hits.
With the loss, the Brewers clinched a losing season and the Rockies clinched the NL Wild Card.

Congrats, Rockies
I’m jealous of your celebration.
Cards Announcers On Gamel's First Career HR, "That’s all they need is another home run hitter".
10 things to root for this weekend
- Prince to hit .300 (.298)
- Prince to win the RBI title (tied with Howard at 138)
- Strong finish by McGehee to get ROY recognition/votes/award.
- Braun to get 200 hits (197)
- HR title for Prince (44 to 47 for Pujols)
- Prince to get 1.000 OPS (1.002)
- Annoy the Cardinals by untucking
- Trevor Hoffman
- McClung/Gamel/Rivera to play (10 is harder than I thought)
- Wear out the Cardinal bullpen leading into the playoffs

Interesting maybe only me
Considering the Brewer offense has not been the problem (4.75 runs per game) I thought it was interesting that only 4 Brewers have enough ABs to qualify for the batting title (and one of them is Kendall).
Nice to see them put up a fight at the end of the season
Parra finishes fifth on this list.
You know me Al.
This place is a graveyard
Having troubles with wrapping my mind around Kirbir listening to T.I.
