Archive-Off Days

No Days Off

The Milwaukee Brewers took the day off as they prepare to travel north of the border to take on American League, Toronto Blue Jays.

With a hiatus in Brewers, baseball lets dig into the archives and relive some of the best moments in brewers history.

The Final week of the 2008 season was a one for the ages. The Brewers clinched a playoff a spot for the first time in what seemed like forever.

In the last 3 games vs the Pirates (2) & Cubs, the Brewers rose to the occasion right in their own backyard.

Ryan Braun hit a monstrous walk-off grand slam vs the pirates, the following night first basemen Prince Fielder follows suite with a walk off 2 run homerun to put the Brewers in a tie for the final playoff spot.

Needing to win a Marlins loss, the Brewers took the field one last time in front of the home faithful. In the Bottom of the 8th with 2 away Braun steps up to the plate and hits a clutch home run to the left-field seats. Starting pitcher CC Sabathia came in off one day rest to pitch the final inning and ultimately clinch a playoff spot for the Milwaukee Brewers.
