Brewer Classic Game Thread: Ben Sheets fans 18

Before Lyle Overbay (left) was a somewhat clumsy Blue Jay, he was a doubles machine as a Brewer. Tune in tonight to watch him hit one of his NL-leading 53 doubles in 2004.

Before Lyle Overbay (left) was a somewhat clumsy Blue Jay, he was a doubles machine as a Brewer. Tune in tonight to watch him hit one of his NL-leading 53 doubles in 2004.

Yeah, I'll make a Game Thread for pretty much anything.

Tonight at 5:30, MLB Network is re-airing a classic Ben Sheets performance from May 16, 2004, when Sheets and the shadows at Miller Park combined to strike out 18 Atlanta Braves on May 16, 2004. Tune in to watch Sheets at his very best, or just to see cameos from Chad Moeller, Brady Clark, Lyle Overbay and Wes Helms

Either way, Sheets and his agent, Casey Close, would love for you to take some time out of your weekend to watch this game and then write Doug Melvin a letter about how great it would be to sign Sheeter to a long term contract. And since the Badgers played this afternoon, the Bucks are off and the Packers don't play until tomorrow, you've got nothing else to do, right?

Ok, actually, there is a Bucks game. Does that change anything? Didn't think so.

World Series Game 4 Open Thread

Things don't look so good for America's favorite team (the Not-Yankees) tonight, as they get to face CC Sabathia once again, but this time will do it with Joe Blanton instead of Cliff Lee.

And, of course, last night's game didn't end late enough, so tonight's will start a little later, at 7:20.

Philadelphia can be a scary place under normal circumstances: How scary will it be during a World Series game on Halloween?
